    Spoilers Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 2x06 - "Lost in Translation"

    Fair point! Where were M'Benga's killer skills in that scenario! :) Oh, and I edited my post to make more sense... I meant to say that Pelia's accent is so thick that I can't always understand what she's saying. Weirdly, I can always understand M'Benga!

    Spoilers Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 2x06 - "Lost in Translation"

    And that's okay, there's 800+ episodes of Trek out there! But for me personally, who apparently has mind like a steel trap for all things Trek, it was far too familiar to be enveloping.

    Spoilers Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 2x06 - "Lost in Translation"

    This week's episode was just... okay. The plot was so reminiscent of TNG's "Night Terrors" and "The Loss" that it was kind of boring to watch them spin their wheels on this for 40 minutes. It felt padded, like there were too many scenes of Uhuru experiencing the messages and we all got it after...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 2x03 - "Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow"

    Yep, I get it, and that dilemma for Kirk carried no tension, I felt no struggle from him about this, even with their conversation in the hotel. Look, this episode was, for me, exceedingly flat and dull. I think I'm just weary of time travel episodes to the 20th century and anything involving...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 2x03 - "Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow"

    Yeah, I remember those things being mentioned by characters, but again, the episode rushed itself to the 20th century without barely any way to distinguish the timeline, other than "hey, who are you, you don't work on my Enterprise?". Everything felt rushed to get to the past so we could then...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 2x03 - "Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow"

    Well, unfortunately this was the first SNW episode that simply didn't click with me at all. It all seemed so random and flippant and, honestly, I was bored by it. I think Star Trek has simply visited the 20th century one too many times, especially after spending almost all of Picard S2 in the...

    Spoilers Ready Room with Wil Wheaton

    So, will there be a new episode of RR this week or what?

    Spoilers Red Alert. Images from the Finale are leaking online. Get off twitter, reddit, and youtube ASAP.

    Oh! I'm so very tempted to take a peek! So... very... tempted... I guess I could and then just pretend it's like watching a trailer for the episodes!

    Am I the Only One Who Desperately Craves a Captain Shaw Series?

    Same here, I just can't rally behind the character as others have. He's fine in small doses, but otherwise he's abrasive, belligerent, thoughtless and uninspiring.

    Spoilers Star Trek: Picard 3x08 - "Surrender"

    This was an incredibly tense episode, I found, but I was very moved, ultimately, in how it wrapped up. I was getting a bit weary of Vadic, so I'm happy that her character has been disposed of, and while the mystery around Jack is being stretched and teased beyond enjoyment, at least it seems...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Picard 3x07 - "Dominion"

    And for me, as a fan of all the post-Nemesis novels which integrated characters and story arcs across those 24th century Berman-era shows, it's fun to see this happen in the Picard show too.

    Spoilers Star Trek: Picard General Discussion Thread

    Hmmm, that does cause some concern indeed! I would imagine that staggering production on the live action shows helps with the annual budgets they have to maintain, so if SNW season 3 wraps up its shooting later this year, the new SA season 1 shoots next year, then we could hope a potential...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Picard General Discussion Thread

    I will say that, even though I am very much enjoying this season of Picard, I miss there being a variety of tone shifts in a season of Star Trek. With only 10 episodes and a single story arc, there isn't any room for light-hearted diversion or side story. On DSC last season, we did at least get...

    That could be a cool reference! I do think Eidelman gets name-checked in that newest composer interview posted today...

    Spoilers Picard Season 3 Soundtrack News

    It's possible but technically speaking the actual, original Blaster Beam instrument used in the TMP scoring sessions was not a synth sound. It is an analog instrument (the metal beam, the strings, artillery shell and mallet to play it). The similar sound heard in the FC score for the Borg...

    Spoilers Picard Season 3 Soundtrack News

    Yeah, that's a tough one to figure out, especially if it's related to the TNG films... I mean, there is the synth blaster beam and metallic percussion sound for the Borg in FC... in NEM there are the synth swooshes which might be associated with Data/B4...

    Spoilers Picard Season 3 Soundtrack News

    It is an edit of the end credits from First Contact, so you'll find that recording sounds much more like what you're hearing in the Picard season 3 end credits. I know we always refer to that main Goldsmith theme as the "TMP theme" but that doesn't always mean that the recording itself...

    Spoilers Picard Season 3 Soundtrack News

    This short motif which Goldsmith also repurposed through his scores for First Contact, Insurrection and Nemesis (check out the track "My Right Arm") has made other appearances within Barton's score proper this season. It's been subtle and the pitches are each held longer, but it is definitely...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Picard 3x05 - "Imposters"

    Hmmm, well that certainly gives me pause to think and consider... but then this season the characters still refer to Picard as being a "robot" or "positronic" and Picard himself doesn't correct them and say "no".

    Spoilers Star Trek: Picard 3x05 - "Imposters"

    Probably because Picard as a human being died in season 1 and his consciousness is now in the golem/android body, ergo no more Borg nanoprobes.
