Spoilers Star Trek: Lower Decks 1x02 - "Envoys"

Yet you keep watching.

 

Oh i didn't watch episode 2, i was simply maintaining my viewpoint.

 

So just an uneducated drive-by?

 

Gave it a 9.

For me....and I fully expect to be in quite a minority....this show ties all of Trek together and balances the whole. It has truly put everything into a new perspective for me and I am no longer bothered by elements of previous Trek, such as the times when I thought the politics was becoming too excessive, etc.

This show demonstrates that you can like both Boimler and Mariner....for different reasons.

Personally, I feel that the concept of IDIC is very much on display here.

And....Trek has not been this much fun since Jim Cromwell's wonderful portrayal of Zeff Cochrane in First Contact.

Has anyone called him 'Zeff'?

It fits.

There needs to be a cameo.

At the very least.

 

Lily called him "Zef" in FC, but it was pronounced "Zeef."

Why is it uneducated according to you?

 

Making a comment in a thread about an episode one hasn't seen.

 

A viewpoint that means absolutely zero because you haven't watched this episode.

 

Now we know why Harry is the forever ensign.

 

He's going to end up making more posts about the show than the biggest fans on this board will.

 

Thanks for the update, I guess?

 

The more I think about it, I actually see little reason to think things would have played out much differently had Mariner not been there, except that Boimler would've likely had an even rougher time on the planet. Why should we believe K'orin wouldn't have simply drunk alone, brandished his d'k tahg and bullied Boimler into taking him wherever he wanted to go in any case? It seems to me that, rather than "screwing up" the mission, Mariner in fact saved it from going even further off the rails than it otherwise might have. (And, to boot, managed to turn it into a learning experience for Boimy Boy that he ultimately came through with his self-confidence bolstered, rather than feeling defeated despite all his meticulous preparation!)

But you did.

But it did.

But you're not.

Well one out of three ain't bad...Slut...

 

FTFY

 

Laughed out loud several times and appreciated the many references. I’m not looking for much else from a Star Trek comedy.

 

Just assuming it must be so. If you assume it must be so then you can never be disappointed. Self fulfilling prophecy hard at work.

 

oh I love a good RHPS reference during morning coffee. makes me shiver in antici....

TrekCore review of "Envoys".

The female Klingon they run into at the restaurant, actually sounds like she has prosthetic teeth in, which is a nice touch.

Reminds me of how the Duras sisters sounded in TNG.
