To everybody accusing Junkball of missing the modified bridge from Generations... remember the name of the video is *Alternate* Enterprise bridges. Anyway, the Generations bridge gets my vote as favorite all time bridge, followed by Yesterday's Enterprise bridge and All Good Things. Least favorite...Enterprise-E, of course
Thanks. I’m getting that question a lot. I originally was covering all the bridges in 1 video, but it ran crazy long and felt super tedious.
:0 e is my favorite bridge it's bigger :)
Enterprise e is my favourite both inside and out 😊
The overlit Enterprise looks like a hotel but in Yesterday Enterprise and Generations itd darker . You got my vote

All these years I thought Star Fleet's mission was to explore strange new worlds and seek out new life and civilizations. Now I realize all they've been doing is collecting space rocks so the bridge can blow up real good.
I miss the awkward intros where the footage is edited to make it seem like they’re reacting to the Junkball Media Logo.
100% agree
Me too
It was always a welcome silly moment

My fave is the generations one.

OhShi-
Those are definitely my favorite intros for sure! Somehow hilarious, a little creepy, and totally silly all at once!
I hate when they install a Wesley Crusher... Pfft
I don,t mind the captains personal airbags though ( wiggles eyebrows and gives a dirty leer ) at 4.53 between Riker and Wesley .
Such an obvious design flaw. Good thing they got rid of it in later revisions.
Timmy Joe PC Tech never knew you watch Trek
Unlike in the prime universe, alternate Wesleys are an upgrade.
In the future sometimes it is necessary to have Crushers on the Bridge. We are too primitive yet to understand the reasons.
I really liked the uniforms from "Yesterday's Enterprise". The extra black accents on the wrists rounded off the uniforms' cuffs and the Star Fleet insignia belts with phaser holsters reminded me of the mirror universe, where at the time, the Terran Empire was losing to the Klingons as well.
Yes, the suspenders/belts looked pretty out of place. Some other color and they would have looked really nice imo.
Check the end of the episode - Geordi is still wearing the alternate uniform when Guinan asks him about Tasha.
@@masere Geordi liked it so much he took it with him to the prime timeline.
BEVERLY: We may not even be in an alternate timeline.
GEORDI: Who knows if we're even dead or alive?
**End of the episode back in the prime timeline**
GEORDI: Oh, guess we're alive then😄
I'm literally in a doctor's waiting room bored as hell, I legitimately needed this right now. Many thanks
Hope everything went ok
Oh yeah, generic wheezing cough that wouldn't go away on its own. After some steroids and antibiotics doing a ton better.
"They have a Wesley Crusher installed." LOL.
I wish Worf jumped to a Tiki Lounge Enterprise where everyone wears Hawaiian shirts and drinks big fruity cocktails while the computer plays hula songs.
So I just pictured Worf playing a ukulele and doing an interpretive dance. Accompanied by Troi and Crusher in grass skirts.
Perhaps today IS a good day to conga.
That only happens on the night shift.
that's only when Tom Paris becomes a childhood admiral prodigy and declares enterprise his flashship... I know I said flashship not flagship... I'm sure Picard would adapt well to service him until he found a way to get data rto murder him by accident
Generations had the BEST version of the D bridge. Always glad to see your vids!!!!!
nope the best (well better) bridge was on "Sisko's motherfucking Pimp Hand"
Yes, but that's not a version of the Enterprise D bridge.
That’s not an alternate version
Yes i second this
Disagree harshly. I hated Generations take on the bridge.
The alternates always looked more interesting than prime bridge. Great video.
Its amazing how fast they were able to make such fast changes to the bridge between episode filming. Throw away changes.
I was led to believe the future would have more wood, glass, felt carpet and hard plastic. Nope, just a lot of glass and hard plastic.
US Igneous rocks are used quite regularly in starship construction
@@munkeyweb ya know thats the only major issue with classic trek exploding rocks
I was led to believe the future would be beige.
For Non Canon Alternate Reality Bridges, The I.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D from The "Mirror Broken" Comics has a different bridge design, It has the command area once again raised by the two steps used in All Good Things with the uppermost step having the Terran Empire Insignia proudly displayed on it and the Doors receive the same embellishment with the Terran Empire Logo, the carpet color is also changed from Red and Gray to Brown and Gray. And that is the extent of the Changes made to the bridge for the Mirror Universe Enterprise-D.
@Junkball I don't know how you do it, but keep up the good work! I find it amazing how you take what some would consider a dry subject like doing a video about alternate Enterprise-D bridge designs, but with your attention to detail, excellent music selection, and creative editing (not to mention great comedic timing) you come out with a 7 minute gem that totally brightened my otherwise cold grey Monday and totally made me laugh out loud multiple times!
I love your material, and have seen just about everything that you've put out, and I was wondering if you do anything else (i.e. do a Podcast, maybe have a seperate channel, or work with someone on another, etc.)?
Thank you again for doing what you do!
All the best,

On the Yesterday's Enterprise bridge you missed out the fact that the entire set of aft consoles were replaced. The chairs are gone and the whole thing is flat from floor to ceiling instead of having the consoles to tuck the chairs under. Freeze frame at around 2:48 in the background with the rocks.
You’re right. Good catch.
@@JunkBallMedia I think in the TNG tech manual Mike Ocuda said that removing those science stations reduced the overall risk of rocks by 47%.
@@NeonVisual more 47s...
4:55
The second I saw this video I said "hes going to point out Wesley as a bridge modification" and I was waiting and thinking "hes going to do it"
When you said they have a Wesley Crusher installed it filled me with such joy my evening is now going perfect.
Yes, but the ship took heavy fire, the sheilds collapsed and Wesley exploded. it sent a crewman flying.
My favorite E-D bridge is actually the version from Generations. I like the fact the command chairs sre up on a two step platform. The two stations on the ramps are cool too. It's very similar to the Yesterday's Enterprise bridge but has a different lighting scheme.
Every video you do that involves the Enterprise -D is a reason to cheer!
I really like this one because finding differences between the various bridges have always been fun to me. Personally i like the "Yesterdays Enterprise" version the most, i has this certain no nonsense look that i really like.
(which is somehow strange, since i usually don't like it when Trek gets overly militaristic)
Love randomness of having the disco-esque theme of Friday The 13th Part III in the background of several of your videos. It actually kinda fits.
Love your bumper music from Friday the 13th part 3D. Classic deep cut. Thanks for your incredible content. Appreaciate your great research. Thanks
Having a Wesley Crusher installed is, we must all admit, generally an optimal systems configuration.
Great comparison of the subtle and NOT SO subtle differences.
If I may add an observation, in Yesterday's Enterprise, the aft stations have the seats and the angled consoles removed. There are only the vertical screens remaining.
Good catch.
Christmas has come early I see
It's a Christmas Miracle, a new Junkball!
That Wesley Crusher installation was so subtle I never caught it when it first aired.
Always love these TNG episodes!
1:27 Picard: "That'll be the day..." One of my favorite lines from my favorite episode.
Enjoyed all these episodes
2:33 Sorry for this weird meta pseudo-stoner post, but I never really thought about how the lighting of this scene makes the AU bridge seem like a set (in a theater sense).
Like obviously the bridge is always a set, but in this case the way AU Picard walks in from ‘stage left’ and there’s a light in the center really gives you the impression of walking on to a stage.
And in a way, that kind of fits the theme of the episode, that version of the bridge isn’t ‘real.’
Next video suggestion. How many times did they redress the movie enterprise bridge to shoehorn it into next gen episodes?
Let's see, There's the Battle Bridge in Three Episodes, those being "Encounter at Farpoint", "The Arsenal of Freedom" and the "Best of Both Worlds Part II", The Stargazer Bridge in "The Battle", The Lantree bridge in "Unnatural Selection", Starbase 137's Courtroom in "The Measure of a Man", The Surgical Suite at Starbase 515 in "Samaritan Snare", The Geology Lab in "Pen Pals", The Tactical Lab in "The Emissary", The Hathaway's Bridge in "Peak Performance", The Cybernetics lab in "The Offspring", The Enterprise-C bridge, The Bridge of the Melbourne in "The Best of Both Worlds Part II", Arctus Baran's Mercenary Ship in the "Gambit" two parter and finally The Pasteur's Bridge in "All Good Things" and those are just the ones I can name off the Top of my Head.
@@DelcoRanz93 and now in video form
@@DelcoRanz93 oh my! You watch way too much Star Trek lol
@@MaynardFreek Can you blame me? It's one of my favorite shows.
“Please.. not again” music swells..
Worf looks so uncomfortable sitting at Ops in the Future Imperfect bridge, as though he had never sat there before. I guess he misses the more reclined chairs from season 1.
5:43 The yellow schematics of the Enterprise-D on the right still display the ship with just two warp nacelles even though she's meant to have an additional third nacelle in the alternate future in "All Good Things...". Either they never got around to upgrading the displays after the new nacelle was added or they just never bothered changing that behind the scenes, thinking the viewers wouldn't notice.
A glorious tour through the intricacies of this often neglected area of Trek history. My geek cup is nicely filled! :-)
At 4:01 always wondered why it looks like the captain couldn't lean comfortably back, not without hitting the back of his head against the tactical console.
Some of these bridge layouts are also mentioned in the book "Dark Mirror" by Diane Duane. But they are of an Imperial Enterprise much similar to the "Yesterday's Enterprise". With a much darker, somber layout with MANY more consoles with emphasis on weapons. And the Captain's chair, plush and more like a throne than a chair. The bulkheads on Yesterday's Enterprise are also cruder, with true emphasis on a battleship (no comforts simply function) and an all seeing, all observant Captain with all instruments and tech within his visual reach. That is why the chair is much more elevated. The uniform you mention was worn by many ancient and even later day European and American troops. Its is a belt/weapon lanyard combination typical of British Redcoats which is quite fitting with the red uniforms of Federation high command. You could call it a Baldrick, similar to what Worf wears and since the Federation was fighting for it's freedom from the Klingons, quite appropriate.
I liked the bridge in Generations.
5:07 I never noticed the Cardassian helmsman before O_o
One of the first redress reuses I noticed was how much of the All Good Things bridge was from Parallels.
Well.. They should stop using rocks on the bulkheads..
It's space ballast.
The silver box thing behind Picard in Parallels is his toaster oven. This alternate reality Picard was fond of making pizza rolls for the bridge crew.
Stage9 had all versions of the Bridge in VR... damn you CBS!
Stage9 ? What's that?
An Unreal-Engine (Game-Engine) real time Enterprise D. It was really cool. It was complete externally and internally. With functioning shuttles and everything. It was shut down by CBS because they have small dicks.
Man, that's a shame. I would have loved to see that.
...those barstards 😡😡😡
I get the feel that it has become more and more frustrating to be a Star Trek fan. Not that they seem to be unable to create a decent series that someone wants to watch without getting the feel of needing a shower afterwards.
Even worse, they kill well-intentioned fan projects just because the are (small) dicks.
I think it's time for us dedicated fans to invent something on our own that carries the Spirit of Star Trek much better, because they don't seem to comprehend what Star Trek is about anyways.
Yep, because they don't know how to play it cool and straight. Their fear can be felt in their products.
@@nealsterling8151 Some people feel that _The Orville_ is that "carrying the spirit of Star Trek", though I personally haven't seen it. I can only take so much Seth MacFarlane at once...
Yet another Great Informational Video! Well done!
Thanks. I hope you got your CZcams admin issue sorted out.
@@JunkBallMedia Sadly not yet, but keep your Borg implants crossed! ;) :P Keep Up the Great work!
2:22 that dotted line might actually be wield lines, like someone hastily assembled the panel and didn't care about how it would look, I think it's just a subtle showing of how the federation is doing in the war. Aka badly.
Rocks! are a constant in all universes.
Potentially controversial opinion but the Voyager Bridge was probably my favourite Star Trek Bridge so far. I felt there was a bit more logic to its layout having ops and tactical in large workstations toward the back, engineering and science to the side and a big panel for con at the front. To me it made all of the stations seem more important and capable of controlling a starship compared to the Enterprise which had relatively small workstations and drew all the focus to the captain and commander.
I had a Wesley Crusher installed on the bridge of my galaxy class starship but it wined all the time so I had it removed. Great Video!
Why the hell would anyone install a Wesley right there
Need something else to trip over
The "All good things" version of the bridge steps was kept in to Generations version with some re-upholstery if I'm not mistaken.
You're right, It was, And it's my belief that the side stations on that design were actually inspired by Yesterday's Enterprise (Though I wish that specific design was brought in as early as the episode "Brothers" since the Bridge wasn't shown in the previous Episode "Family" That would've been a great time to change the bridge to that design if they had the money at the time to pay the extras.)
I do love the track used at the opening bit of the video. 🥰
I liked this before I pressed play.
I dont know why, but this is just great!
My favorite Ent-D bridge is still the redress from Generations. Also, you still have the best videos! Hope baby junkball is well!
Thanks. I’m saving the Generations modifications for another video.
The red on the command chair in the S7 bridges is matching the colour of the horseshoe. If you go back to the S2 episode Contagion you can briefly see the back of Captain Varley's chair is green matching the horseshoe of the Yamato's bridge. The base and back of the regular command chairs is darker than the side panels though not as dark as to really match the horseshoe
Also in some future bridge scenes they added video screens in the back area in place of the tradition back lit plexys.
These vids make my day a little brighter thank you
Aw. Thanks.
My body is ready.
My favorite was the design from "Yesterday's Enterprise", the bridge set for that episode are used again for Star Trek Generations.
Yes! Another video!!!
The "Yesterday's enterprise" is sooo Disco, luv it!!
What about the bridge in Star Trek Generations ? It also had modifications too !
I feel like an unstated element to all this is that the person that changes the tactical desk and the person in charge of side-panel bridge covers are inflection points in the Trek timeline, somehow events are *always* causing them to subtly alter their opinion on what makes for a good bridge design.
I actually preferred the bridge in Yesterday's Enterprise to the prime one. It felt more realistic, and I think probably the producers felt similar, as the bridge in Generations was fairly close to the Warship Enterprise-D.
Isn't it cool we are finally getting TVs as big as view screens!?!
They installed LCD displays on some occasions too, instead of the plexis.
Good stuff as always.
Thank you buddy! I needed a doze of your wit. Cheers!
Thanks, bud. I appreciate it.
Today started great got really shit and got great again when you uploaded
Binged almost every video. That opening music has been in my head all day! What is it from?
I love the second Paralles bridge.
Out of all the bridges we've seen, the Enterprise D bridge (and its variants) is my favourite, and I think the warmer colour tones and organic curves is why. The cooler silver and chrome colours alienated me slightly as designs like the Voyager are good, but not somewhere I wanted to go. I would love to serve on the Enterprise D, but not the NX or the Voyager.
To be picky, I'm not fond of bridge designs with steps. They're useful to showcase alternative versions as shown here, but Voyager should have realistically had people tripping up and down all the time in battles or when in turbulence.
What I like about the D bridge is you look at it from the screen POV you can see everyone. It's like a band. Picard is the lead singer with is backups on either side. Data and Wesley are on guitar and base and worf is on a reset on drums. Well geordy has his back turned on keyboard but he has his engineering.
I like the materials used in Voyager more but look at the screen POV. Paris covered Janeway and chekotay. Kim and tuvok are in weird cages and torez isn't even on screen, I don't think I ever even got a good look at the engineering console.
I was wondering when Picard would stumble when he goes to Data's station.
Junkball Media and TriAngulum Audio Studios uploaded on the same day! today is a good day =)
I love your channel!
I wonder how they did the painting, especially with the wooden ark. I assume they added some colored foil? Would be cheap and easy to remove.
I wish that the "yesterday enterprise" enterprise-d had exterior modifications too, if its a warship it should have cannons and stuff, just like future refit
Great video! I really enjoy videos like this that analyze the sets and the work of the art department. Keep up the good work!
Thanks. They were a crafty, resourceful team.
I’ve been watching Star Trek since I was a kid and how have I never noticed the thing about the rocks? That shit is fucking hilarious.
2:22 Always confused me that it looked like that section of wall has been RIVETED together...
Another quality video, kudos!
You had me at rocks.
I love everything about Yesterday's Enterprise!
I’ve never noticed the awful dotted pattern around that console in Yesterday’s Enterprise, I hate it and now I will AWAYS see it. Thanks dude. xx
I’ve always thought the command chair sections should’ve been raised up one or two steps.
Any timeline with a Wesley Crusher installed on the bridge is gonna end badly. 😁
Nice introspective, thanks for sharing. :-)
I'd have liked to have seen the Generations Bridge also included.
I kept this one to only the alternate reality bridges. I’m having The Generations bridge for a vid on the Prime timeline bridge updates. 👍🏼
Great video.
That makes sense: maybe it isn't rocks flying out, it's grouting?
Good video but I thought when I read the way you labeled it that it would also include (Bridges as in Battle Bridge or Engineering area or Holoideck }But I get what you did now :-)
Well, maybe not the SAME, there's the two side chairs and there doesn't seem to be a stair set but the side consules are still there and it's brighter in the movie than in the episode.
Where is the Generations bridge?
In s5 they reused the battle Bridge for the USS Bozema.
All Good Things isn't an alternate future. It's just as much a fantasy created by a lonely alien, this time Q. You can tell because Geordi is married to Leah Brahms (who, as we know, was already married to someone else) and because the landlady from Time's Arrow is Data's housekeeper. Q is just making stuff up based on what he can read from the crew's minds.
Every bridge needs a Wesley Crusher installed. :D
The borg are everywhere!.
Lovw your videos
Great job
So what you're saying is that the alien who wanted Riker to be his daddy at a strikingly good foresight what the bridge would look like
You forgot the modified bridge in Generations...
I think, like everyone with a right mind, he is trying to forget that movie, lol.
Like after they crash on the planet?
"So here they've replaced a lot of the bridge with rubble. They also combined the blue and white domes to create a sky-like motif."
This video is for any Enterprise Bridge set in a alternative universe or future. The Generations Bridge Is not Included because it's in the prime timeline.
YES!! More Next Generation content :D
Hmm. I didn’t realize that it’s been over a year since I did something TNG. Time flies.
I never understood why Yesterday's Enterprise dims the bridge. I mean, what purpose does it serve? Surely it's vitally important for a warship to be well lit :/
Because it portrays a dark alternate timeline.
