Spoilers Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 2x10 - "Hegemony"
- Thread starter Commander Richard
- Start date
Sam Kirk and M'Benga--AAARGGHHH they are implanting us with Gorn eggs in a violent graphic scene that we're surprised is being released for streaming television without a viewer warning!
Agent Daniels (shows up out of nowhere): Don't worry, both of you will survive since you have to appear on our reality documentary occurring about a decade from now. OHHH--Doc, is that a genuine vial of Protocol 12? You have no idea how rare these are in my time. I'll be grabbing one of these.
M'Benga: Seriously? You're not going to rescue us from the Gorn?
Daniels: Like I said, you'll survive.
And Star Trek is just a copy from Forbidden Planet.
Which is in part THE TEMPEST with goofier-looking uniforms.
I've been rewatching SNW to get ready for season 3, and I made it to the finale again. It will be 2 and a half weeks to remember this episode rather than 2 and a half years, so that's nice.
I think watching this series again in a week has made me change my mind on this Gorn storyline. I wonder how they will connect it to Arena (If they do), but they actually made the Gorn menacing and kind of scary rather than corny or barely visible like what we got in Enterprise. I'm still not sure about them basically being the Xenomorphs from the Alien franchise, but I have enjoyed all the episodes they have appeared in.
Looking forward to finally getting the cliffhanger resolution to this episode in a couple weeks.
Even though having Pike just stand there for Cliffhanger effect was laughable. You gotta make a decision Captain. That's why you're the Captain. I hope they come into the premiere episode guns a blazing.

I've been periodically rewatching the whole series too (starting with Disco S1+2) and have accidentally timed it out pretty well, I rewatched Subspace Rhapsody yesterday, so I only have Hedgemony to go.
I justify that the same way as in the older shows where just before an ad break they would stand around dramatically for the fade-out.
I thought it was a reference to Galaxy Quest were people are demanding Captain Taggert give an order.
It's another universe or temporal reality. I don't care what the suits say.

It's not. It's canonically part of the main timeline from TOS on.
You want consistency, go to Mcdonald's for lunch. "Canon" does not mean "fits together well."
Only if a) you have a very limited frame of reference from which to judge entertainment or b) you lack proper critical faculties.
They are superficially the same. Very far from being a copy and saying so is just lazy kvetching.
Even Mickey Dees isn't the same anymore.
Their Fries are garbage now compared to before they went to the crap oils they use now.
And they skimp on all the condiments as well.
A fish sandwich gets a quarter of the cheese and tartar sauce it use to get.
(and doesn't taste the same as it used to either)
They changed the breakfast Sausage McMuffin and I am and always will be sad about that.
The new Happy Meal toys look right up my alley though.
Well then, there's that.
TMP, actually.
It is because the fish patty is deep-fried in the same oil they use for the potatoes. I stopped eating at McDonald's in 1997 when I got food poisoning from the 2 Big Macs for $2 deal. Ate them Sunday evening, and Monday morning at work wasEven Mickey Dees isn't the same anymore.

Big Mac attack from both ends.I'm sure McDonald's is still consistent, just consistently bad.
The toys would probably be better for your health than the meal.
I love McDonalds.
Heh .. So, Shit toys as well.
