Probably not.
Spoilers Star Trek: Discovery 2x07 - "Light and Shadows"
- Thread starter Commander Richard
- Start date
An interphasic rift would be murderously choppy with insanity on both sides. The (new) empress would have sent science teams to figure that shit out, to both stop an invasion coming through, and to raid the nonmirror universe for more more advanced tech.
Oh.
So that's totally going to be what everyone is doing in the 2270s. Dealing with Queen Hoshi trying to plant a flag in the non mirror universe, or trading tons of dilithium for this or that.
Call Linda Park immediately.

Gave this ep a 9! Was a goodin', IMO.
Back-from-the-future evolved probe was strange and suitably disconcerting, I thought.
Not really sure what to make of it... but colour me intrigued!
Looking forward to seeing Talos IV in the next ep!
Mysteries abound - Huzzah!

I'm just a happy camper knowing I'm not the only one who would actually likes that.I think one of the show writers said that in an interview that Archer was in fact Future Guy.
I LOVE ENTERPRISE and I loved the TCW, and maybe it's Future Guy's faction which is the one they never closed the story on that is still active, ah so if Archer is Future Guy he must have got shot into the future and all that he has done is an attempt to fix what he thought had gone wrong.
Or maybe it was that meddling Frank B Parker in the chronosphere from Seven Days ... He likes to meddle you know.

The DTI novels reveal who the shadow guy is if you’re interested.
Boy, they are really stretching the abilities of a 23rd shuttle in this. I know it has racing stripes on it but it really shouldn’t be able to go to Vulcan and then to Talos IV. They’re only supposed to be for short range only.
Plus it would be incredibly slow. It would take months at the shuttle’s max speed.

That line, I heard in Christopher Eccleston's voice.There's always one.
I gave it an 8. The episode was good but too short.
Since the run times have varied wildly, I have no idea what the motivation is for how episodes are edited sometimes.
This one was definitely fun, but felt like it could have used and extra 5-10 mins to slow down and smell the roses.
exactly why i rated it 7
Sometimes I wonder if they have run time obligations because of the broadcast Canadian airings.
Otherwise, it makes no sense.
i dont get it either - if they plan to syndicate it later they'd need a total recut of their material.
varying run times for streaming shows are nothing unusual. Netflix shows do it all the time. I certainly prefer having a 35 minute episode if there is only 35 minutes of story to tell than stretching the episode to 45 minutes as it was done in the past. similarily, a 60 minutes episode with 60 minutes of story are preferable to cramming that 60 minutes worth of story into the same 45 minutes
Oh I totally agree, but I think in the case of this last episode, they could have slowed the pacing a bit to the benefit of the overall narrative. Another 5-10 mins spent on fleshing a few things out, this could have been a classic.
Didn't watch this episode in it's entirety, but I checked out the Speck scenes. I was entertained. They were unintentionally funny. Definitely not the most flattering portrayal of Star Trek's most iconic character.. but at this point, it's par for the course with the series. It makes it easier to see classic Spock and this version as two separate things.
I love that the Talosians are back. Hopefully they meet Pike again. There's a lot more material to punish him with now

This might actually be what happens. I expect, if they ever pursue this as an option, there would be a syndicated cut of Discovery.

Honestly, I really don't understand your constant ripping apart of an entertainment that you supposedly like.
Do you have so very little else to do with your free time?
Or is it that you just get some semblance of amusement attempting to get a rise out of others?
I mean obviously, this is a place to express ones opinion one way or another, but there seems to be some perverse sense of pleasure you get out of continually attacking the current Star Trek brand.
