Memory Alpha Entry​

 

So Tilly is Dorothy?

 

This one, or the next one, will feature the Trill, EDF, Ni'Varans, and Sahil beaming in to save the day... ...I hope

 

Grudge is Toto? Saru the formerly cowardly lion?

 

Does this mean we will see a cameo from this guy

 

It’s time for the Enterprise-M to show up to save the day, commanded by Will Riker XXV.

 

Did this Wizard of Oz bullshit start on Reddit, are you the poster that did that? Or did RLM make that up or something.

 

I’m sure Commander Richard made it himself, like he makes all his episode title art. And I’m curious as to why you think it’s ‘bullshit.’

 

I came up with the poster myself and have no idea what else you're referring to with Reddit or whomever. Osyraa reminded me of the wicked witch, right down to her choice of attire, and I thought it would make a good theme. Is Tilly "Dorothy"? Don't know but it was fun to see the two of them in a face-off (though Tilly did try to play it a bit too cocky). Looking forward to more of that. Hopefully our new Captain Tilly isn't sidelined too soon.

Oh, and I thought that maybe Saru would be the Tin Man.

 

I did a quick Google search and it seems that a lot of people are comparing Osyraa to the wicked witch of the west. Admiral Vance as Glinda? Don't see it.

 

I think the poster looks great.

Yeah, I see that. And I think Osyraa looks like it but a lot more fun than any Wicked Witch of the West I've seen. That's me though. Not a huge fan of Wizard of Oz, other than the original book.

 

Do they actually call themselves that?

We know the actual planet is now called Ni'Var, but I got the impression that the people were still calling themselves Vulcans and Romulans.

 

I've been doing Wizard of Oz jokes since the first episode Auntie Osyraa showed up in:

They're fun and they don't diminish from the show in any way. All they say (from my perspective) is that their is a prominent green character who is the evil antagonist. This and Wizard of Oz are the only two examples of that I'm aware of.

 

Abomination.

The Green Goblin.

Frankenstein's Monster.

But, the Wizard of Oz comparison is fair, if a bit on the nose

 

More Wicked than Wizard of Oz in my opinion.

 

@Commander Richard's posters are always on point. I look forward to them every week.

 

I give his poster a 10 out of 10 this week.

 

As is tradition, I see someone has already voted the unseen episode with a 10.

 

The horror...

 

It’s the same person every time
So can I also put in my customary 2? I only ever graded one episode of Discovery a 1, so 2 is about right most of the time
