Spoilers Star Trek: Lower Decks 3x01 - "Grounded"

[Commander Richard]

Animated Trek is back. And despite what the Federation News Network reports, everything will be status quo soon enough.

We hope.

[Tuskin38]

I'm so excited!

 

[Weyoun 251]

I'm so excited!

And I just can't hide it

 

[Divinity Davey]

... I'm about to loose control and I ...

OOps... time to change my diaper.

 

[Borgminister]

Well that all Depends...

[NCC-73515]

A new intro-intro similar to SNW!

Sonny Clemonds still gives concerts!

And the crystalline entity has joined the intro battle

 

[NCC-73515]

Ketracel white sauce with its 17 MSHU is hotter than pure capsaicin (16 MSHU)

OMG, that FC music

A Phoenix capsule for kids, and a T'Plana-Hath replica
And it's Cromwell's voice, too!

 

[Kamen Rider Blade]

BRB, going to watch new ep.

 

[NCC-73515]

Holy shit...

The original of course launched with hull plates that split off, but it's just a ride for kids

A very nice Akira

And Tuvok!

And it was a classic Pakled Samaritan Snare

A runabout with only one window

 

[tomalak301]

Fantastic start. The first contact references were amazing and the frame job sameritain Snare was so random yet so appropriate for Lower Decks.

Welcome back to the best of nuTrek.

 

[Kamen Rider Blade]

A runabout with only one window

They must've found a way to manufacture a strong single piece window now instead of two pieces with a support frame in the middle.

Fantastic start. The first contact references were amazing and the frame job sameritain Snare was so random yet so appropriate for Lower Decks.

Welcome back to the best of nuTrek.

The "Sameritan Snare" feels like a classic Pakled plot.

I love that they have Morgan Bateson as the Captain leading the secret mission to clear Carol Marcus' name.

Anybody get any interesting vibes that Ransom supervising Mariner now is going to lead to some form of romantic encounter or at least they'll sleep together some time this season?

I think the third or 4th episode of the series had them butting heads so this should only continue that rivalry.

 

[Airmandan]

Damn good episode. Felt like it went by really quick. Liked that there was a giant conspiracy and investigation that of course the lower decker's were not privy to.

 

[Campe]

I love that they have Morgan Bateson as the Captain leading the secret mission to clear Carol Marcus' name.

Carol who?

They set up those vibes in season 1. It’s possible they’ll go back to it and it wouldn’t surprise me but I’m not sure I really got anything like that here.

 

[mattman8907]

I'm sorry but I hope Mariner gets thrown out of Starfleet. Time and time again she has shown a disregard for the CHAIN OF COMMAND! I remember an episode where she compares herself to Kirk but She ain't nothing like Kirk.

 

[Ar-Pharazon]

I'm so excited!

 

[Romulan_spy]

Loved it!! I especially loved the whole sequence in Bozeman and the launch on the Phoenix. So many First Contact references!!

 

[Richard S. Claus]

I think it could have been funnier, but it was solid enough. The Mariner and Ransom pairing should make for some good stuff. it's actually about time Mariner realised her potential and got a kick up the butt.

Cool that they got James Cromwell back for such a tiny bit.

 

[1987SpaceGuy]

Boimler not picking up (or caring) about the wineyard/grape ladies
Ketracel whole bottle hot sauce Mariner while Boimler burns from a drop or two.
Sisko Creole, Tuvok, Montana/Zefram Cochrane including Magic Carpert Ride - YEAH!

wasn't a fan of the Freeman Packled story being "solved" so quickly.
LDS is too short. Would love it to be longer, especially as we only get so little episodes.
