  • My favorite is the repair tool from S1 PIC, the one powered by imagination. Lets just create and forget a magic wand that commoditizes the entire engineering department 🙃

  • Enterprise was not bad at all.

    Phlox, rub some decontamination gel on this revisionist history! The worst part was absolutely all the oily creeper shots.

  • Odo used harumph. It’s super effective!

  • Edit: also this, meant only as a jest 🖖 :

  • Incredibly well done episode. Not sure others have mentioned these, but I really really liked these things in particular:

    • Reno has great presence and delivery. And the sharpest uniform.
    • I’m glad the announcer from Children’s Hospital fell through an anomaly and arrived in Starfleet Academy.
    • English graffiti and open flames everywhere! J/k how could they get everything else so right but then fumble this so poorly. You’re telling me the venari ral are space romans, but not romulans?

    A great first season, I feel like they know what they’re doing and I want more.

  • I was kind of bummed by the explanation of why Discovery couldn’t jump with the spore drive

    I loved this episode and the season in general , but I must disagree.

    I felt like they respected their audience too much to leave us with freezer thoughts like “what about disco’s magic mushroom warp?”

  • They are in the middle of — it’s not just drinking from one firehose, there’s probably ten thousand hoses. And so everything is just happening slower as a result of this massive time of transition. And that is not exclusive to Star Trek.

    As a corporate drone I see this as an absolute win.

    The odds are near their highest that Academy will be rubberstamped simply because it passes a triage check and they’re too busy to bikeshed the details.

  • At the bar celebrating his new commission aboard Voyager he met an ensign named Mariner.

  • This was an problem that Picard showrunner Terry Matalas ran into when he pitched his Star Trek: Legacy spinoff series set on board the USS-Enterprise-G (formerly USS Titan), as all of those sets were destroyed immediately after Picard season 3 wrapped up, adding significant startup costs to recreate everything for a new show.

    Ah so that’s why that sets are relevant. No sets no spinoff.

  • He's been meaning to ask her why her uniform is a catsuit made of office carpet.

  • me: Now when it comes to Ferengi-centric episodes of DS9, Looking for par'Mach in All the Wrong Places, while good, doesn't hold a candle to subversive gems like House of Quark (which actually preceded this episode), Bar Association, and Little Green Men.

    them: shutup shutup shutup!

  • However, is it only Brakka who is responsible for the con, or is and has Anisha Mir been part of a long con of both Ake and her son from the start?

    I like where you're going. My own hunch is we'll learn that Anisha (at Nus' behest after he rediscovered Caleb) agreed to embed malicious code in her encrypted messages to Caleb (and that she only begrudgingly agreed because she lost hope he would read them) and that's how Nus will snatch victory from the jaws of defeat from Capt. Ake at the very last moment, that he actually won the moment Caleb opened that first message from his Mom.

    Probably not exactly that, but something along the lines of discovering that Nus has always been 2 steps ahead.

  • 90s Trek was fantastic and did a great job handing off to each other. Even Voyager being stranded was still moving the world forward. Then we reset back to the first Enterprise, absolutely killing all the momentum.

    The best thing Discovery ever did (apart from soft launching Strange New Worlds which got lucky) was launch us into the far future and give us a place to build.

    I feel this is a powerful argument against prequels in general, not just for star trek.

    Like, I cant help but think you're right. The latter half of disco did indeed move the setting to a place where Academy can pick up and it seems like it's working.

  • We have to accept that Star Trek is almost like scifi’s version of the Simpsons. It’s done everything.

    ¡Ay, Dios no me ama!

  • Nowadays, especially nowadays, I'm just grateful that the optimistic spirit/energy of star trek is having a next next generation of its own. I'm here for it. Mostly (sorry disco).

  • I just want to tell you how much I liked the episode that explored Klingon honor and how that hunting scene kept being recontextualized.

    The show reminds me of Lower Decks in that it's different but it's the same. Cant wait to see more.

  • This is incredible, my respect and gratitude to those that are making it happen. Also can't wait.

  • It’s like double the effort, but I really like Kenji style potatoes where you parboil and toss them to build a slurry coating then roast that coating into crispy goodness.

    Next time I do I want to try a Parmesan finish 😎
