I still have to watch the final episode, and that could of course turn everything around, but so far I enjoyed this season a lot. The new characters work pretty well. Even though the whole Russia plot so far lacked believability. I dislike that the characters are seperated so much, but every...

But can a person really still be called typical if it's stretched so thin that has nearly twice the radius of the sun? Some might consider him to have an over-inflated ego.

Well, that seems to describe every Captain character we spend any amount of time with, though. Pike, Picard, Sisko, Janeway... And I think Starfleet is okay with that, because they know their handbook is a good start, but you don't know what you'll meet out there and you have to adapt. If you...

This was a really nice season finale. I like how Spock subtly changed to be colder and less expressive (considering he already is rather cool and less expressive) in the future - kinda what he will always become. I don't know yet quite how I like the Kirk actor, but I am a bit optimistic - he...

I think many episodes of Star Trek are indeed not space opera, but whatever specific genre that episode matches. Some sci-fi horror turning the crew into avatastic ancestors or a murder-mystery with a space ghost. Deep Space Nine's Dominion War certainly falls in the scope of soap opera. TNG's...

Wow, I totally forgot that this view on humanity came from Babylon 5. It was my idea of what humanity's role really is in the Federation, but it seems my idea actually came from also watching Babylon 5. I mean, some say it's because humans might glue two warp cores together just to see what...

Telemarkters might be different - they are coming in to annoy you and take your money. A robot that actually does stuff you want might put you in a more positive emotional state. Unless of course you bought the Freemium Robot subscription that occassionally plays advertisements. "Master, the...

He will be missed, though there was talk that at least the actor isn't leaving Star Trek. But even so - we will miss the character. TOS costume department really don't seem to match the capabilities of the new Gorn. I guess I can live with that retcon. Though it seems as nasty as the Gorn are...

For some reason, I completely missed this episode, becuase the next one I watched was yet again a different story. But I watched it now. Didn't care much for the story, the scenarios just didn't mesh well into a story, and it was mostly going through the scenarios without doing much. In a way...

If it's not an innocent bystander, a villain or a hero, maybe it's a force of nature? Maybe a bit like an avalanche - someone could have triggered it, without any intention to do so, but once it started... But I suppose forces of nature you can manipulate emotionally is... unusual. She can still...

Is the poll and title still fixable, by the way? I am very biased towards Star Trek, but Strange New World so far has been really amazing. I think the new season of Orville (nor the previous ones, really) has so far not been as good. But I am very happy I can have both.

Heck, that is a very good description of what I feel, said much better than I ever managed to express it myself. I like to discuss on r/DaystromInstitute, and there are always people that try to spin some Section 31 or other clandestine stuff that basically says: "Hey, what you did see on screen...

I am torn on this issue, but I think, primarily Starfleet is Starfleet. If it wants to, it's an exploration operation that does things purely for scientific purposes even if no sane military in the world would ever do it, or do it like that. If it wants to, it's a military organization that will...

I think it was overall emotionally satisfying. But the space chase scene was as bad as it was in TLJ. They could have at least put Vader in a smaller ship (like an Arquitans or what it's called) or something that it seems plausible that his ship maybe can't destroy a freighter - or drop ship -...

Maeve is bound to have build connections in the company herself over the long time she is there. But it's also possible that she is secretly - or unknowningly - working with Edgar here.

It is the product of the future for him - superize trained and loyal soldier that need a daily dose to stay super, instead of kids that get superpowers for life but you have no idea how they'll turn out (or how to turn off). A little proof of concept...

I guess there is some element of Vancian spellcasting to the Dark Side... If you don't prepare your "crush space shuttles" spell after meditation, you won't be able to cast it.

I kinda expected to see him in Engineering, being the one that took out the space pirates there. But I guess he wasn't so lucky, got captured and put in a cage conviently always off-camera. :)

The quick arrival of T'Pring was kinda surprising, but my guess is - the prison she's working on right now is near the same "edge" of Federation space? It kinda makes sense: T'Prin and Spock are trying to make a long-distance relationship work. That might include her taking commissions near...

Felt to me like it might become a new big bad, actually. They basically assimilate people, and retain the knowledge of their host, so that opens up some future shenengians. But maybe not, the way they were sneaking around in a kinda bestial way kinda makes them flat as actual villains. Villains...
