No one is gonna tell me that was the actual Tom Paris. Voice was completely different, definitely not Robbie McNeil voicing. 1.
 
James Earl Jones changed enough between looping ADR for the Special Edition of ESB and Rogue One that it's noticeable.

Yes it was, he's just gotten older so his voice has changed.

He might have recorded it in his closet or something if Covid restrictions prevented him from going to a proper studio which would have also effected the audio.

I still don't understand hate watching.

Last week had me wondering:
“Wait a sec, how’d duplicate Boimler make it to the shuttle and back up to the Titan so fast? He said the Pakleds couldn’t make it past the door, when they clearly did right as he was beaming out.” Pacing is compressed on the show, I’ll allow, but not to *that* degree.

This week has me noticing that,
despite being logged back into the system by Billups, the ship’s computer doesn’t recognize Boimler. Did anyone bother to check him out on his return to the Titan, or the Cerritos for that matter? Or is he just a ‘lower decker, we’ve ‘heard this tune before’, and nobody bothered to care?

My understanding is that Boimler, despite being told multiple times, refused to have himself logged back into the system. The issues in the episode were entirely his fault.

But yeah, I don't think that he's a "full person", that some Enemy Within stuff is going on with him. But that could be due to a mastermind, someone controlling the Pakled's who may have interfered with Boimler's transport.

I don’t think it’s actually
Boimler. I think he’s a Pakled plant. Just like the crew of the Titan suspected for all of five seconds.

Maybe. Maybe my issue with Shaxs will be resolved this way. What if Shaxs is the plant on the Cerritos, and William Boimler is the plant on the Titan? I think someone is using the Pakleds to attack Starfleet.

And I know who it is, of course:
Good Ol' Badgey.

He very well could've transported Shaxs at the last moment.
 
An entire episode for a cat joke is priceless.

Well, son of a biscuit eater! T'Ana actually has a tail! Shorter than M'Ress', but I'll attribute that being a characteristic of a different ethnic group. I will note there were some shots in the first season, like when T'Ana performed a Kirk-Fu type flying kick that billowed her lab coat behind her and revealed a smooth, uh, backside, no hint of a balancing appendage, but I'm willing to overlook that.

We have the Manx cat as proof of your example. They have little to no tail.
 
The best thing for me this week is that i didn’t find Tendi to be annoying as she usually is.

Shaxs coming back was unexpected but funny because it was poking fun at dead characters coming back.

The show is more of a put a smile on my face rather than make me laugh like crazy.

The cat in boxes home made me chuckle.

I gave the episode 7.
