    Any explanation would have been decried as weak. So, why not leave the mystery.

    That Spock troll: “Let’s see what the future holds.”

    A nod to fan requests?

    God, I hope so.

    I was hoping for a Yesterday's Enterprise scenario where their actions cause the timeline to correct itself to the Prime timeline. Would have made the entire season worth it.

    It's not a mystery if they can do it. I would just like one piece of dialogue to explain them.

    On the positive side, the Enterprise bridge -- and the science station in particular -- looked great at the end. Glad Spock's scope and whirly screen were there.

    It also looked like they may have toned down the tacky saucer lights.

    And we might get it. Just not right away.

    And that's fine by me. Not everything needs an explanation.

    Indeed. I am rather fatigued by the insistence of one season wrap-ups of intriguing concepts.

    Well, that's why when I said I would have picked the same prequel timeframe that they did--because I love the TOS era. So, yeah! Hopefully we get a Pike series then

    But, I'm also all for moving forward into new settings and new story possibilities.

    Hopefully we can have our cake and eat it too with Discovery in the future and Pike in the 23rd century.

    In fairness, you'd probably think anything else they'd come up with would be awful too, so why not?

    Wha t a weird ending. I thought when I went online CBS would have announced, and all of Mount 's earlier comments would have been smokescreen to cover for a new series in the works. Or that DSC was shifting gears to be about the big E. To not have any reference or cliffhanger scen e with DSC in its future setting? Weird.

    The battle scene s were too visually messy. Did like the blue solid phaser beams instead of pew pews.

    Weird ending if DSC's crew is really the main crew of this series!

    I think that's a question a Pike Series should say something about. ;)

    Thanks for that information. The grim looks between Cornwall, Pike, and Number One make sense now.

    I liked the finale overall, but the urgency shown in the first act with putting together the suit is ridiculous considering they spent half the episode last week saying goodbye.

    And if Tyler could get help, why didn't Sarek pull the Federation fleet?

    I suspect someone really love spacewalks, because Burnham should have just been in the and got off at the asteroid.

    I would just like a season where the same Executive Producer starts and ends the season, because it feels pretty obvious to be that there was a clear shift in story.

    Like how did Burnham manage to disable the Ba'ul ship all by herself? (They conveniently glossed over that.)

    It's very sloppy but I'm looking forward to a clean slate Season 3.
