List Only! Last Star Trek Episode You Watched

TOS - Charlie X

 

Rapture (DS9 on Netflix).

 

"Disaster" (TNG)

Let's just say I'm glad my brother is the one who decided to have kids and not me. I feel so bad for Picard.

 

DSC - "New Eden"

 

DS9 Shattered Mirrors. Mirror Universes, not my favorite.

 

TOS - Where No Man Has Gone Before.

Amazing they aired that near the middle of season 1, seemingly at random, despite the less-refined bridge set, different outfits, Spock acting a bit more shouty than usual, new crew out of the blue... (yes, all to save money, as given the money they gambled on the failed 1964 pilot they had to cut corners somewhere. Hence WNMHGB being thrown in as well as "The Cage" being (very cleverly re)used into another episode.

 

Charlie X (TOS Blu-ray)

 

Tacking Into the Wind - I'd forgotten about the key plot moment in that episode...

 

Charlie X

 

I got up to "The Masterpiece Society". Officially half-way through the fifth season.

As I said earlier, I noticed the music sounded full-fledged Berman Era by the end of S4 but I don't feel like it became tedious until the middle of the fifth season. Maybe I just became tired of it around this point but there's more to it than that. In late-S4 and early-S5, the music -- while subdued -- at least fit what was going on in the episode. By the middle of S5, they're not even trying. It's literally now at the point where it's just sonic wallpaper. Whatever stands out from this point on is the exception, not the rule.

 

Short Treks: Ask Not, streamed on CBS All Access.

This one seemed really short, wish we could have seen more of Discoprise’s main engineering.

 

In honor of Rene Aberjonois, "The Search Parts I and II(DS9)."

 

Back-to-back DSC: "Point of Light" and "An Obol for Charon."

I'd never even heard of Tig Notaro prior to looking her up after her appearances here.

Extremely gripping in what Saru thought were his final moments.

 

You Are Cordially Invited (DS9 on Netflix)

 

The stupid TNG episode about warp travel damaging space. Not a very subtle message in that one.

 

Take Me Out to the Holosuite (DS9 on CBS All Access)

 

Star Trek isn't always subtle.

 

Where No Man Has Gone Before (TOS Blu-ray)

 

TNG Lower decks and Thine own self
