[Noname On A Naughty List]

I haven't seen S2 as it came out this year, contrary to S1 last year.

Should I just grab the Blu-Ray once it comes out? How does it compare, generally, to S1?

IMO - Both seasons are very good. I love both. but I have to say overall I like season 2 a little more than season 1.

The tail looks mechanical on a couple of those.

It would be an interesting take for adult gorn to lose their tails and replace them with mechanical ones.

Gorn with cybernetic enhancements? Shades of TOS Battlestar Galactica original Cylons. Could be interesting. They would need to avoid being compared to the Borg, though, if they go that route.

I don't think it would ever get so far to cause borg comparisons. I don't think anyone is saying that they should start replacing their entire bodies with machines. Just that perhaps older Gorn lose their tails at a certain level of maturity (or other reasons), and soldiers' armor sometimes include artificial ones as weapons. like a knight carrying a sword, except this sword is attached to their ass. They get used to having a tail in youth and so they replicate it artificially as a weapon.

So they're frogs on steroids.

Don’t some lizards lose their tails and are able to regenerate them back? I wonder if the Gorn can do the same.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves. Don't greenlight the sequel until we know how well this one is doing!

Tonight feels odd and maybe a little bit depressing to not be setting an alarm for 3am.... This wait isn't gonna be easy.

They keep telling us they want these to be like movies.

Ah the first Thursday is always the hardest.

No new Trek, but remember we've HAD new Trek even during the unfolding of a Writers' and Actors' Guild strike. We'll manage.

Anyways, LD returns soon. I'm happy!

It always hard to go from a serious tv show to Lower Decks.

 

[SantaEddie74]

I can roll with it, especially after "Those Old Scientists(SNW)."

 

[Rudolph-Redshirt Reindeer]

"Those Old Scientists" actually made me interested in Lower Decks, so I started watching it and will start season 3 tonight. I'm enjoying it so far.
