Sigh. I made a joke about a while back about what TOS trope they would use next. I said maybe the Doomsday machine. Well we got a Decker call out and the constellation in this episode but we got our TOS trope. The metrons. Sigh. Come on. Can't these writers come up with their own stuff for 10...

...stars in the firmament of Season One DISCO: Rainn Wilson's Harcourt Fenton Mudd (I will take time to gush about this performance later). Mudd jokes about their being at a spa, Lorca no-sells the attempt at a joke, and after a flourishing rendition of Mudd's "tragic" backstory, we see a...

Perhaps some of it from about 7 years ago. He seemed pretty sincere...maybe a little too much in parts. Doug vas uncomfortable vith ze thought of zat...Jewish ritual. Ah, it vas pagan? Sehr gut! Good question. I might've misunderstood what Tony was saying at one point, but when I looked up...

I'm glad you're not a show writer.

Good. It's realistic.

...which should have been coupled with a little awe over what had happened to her, etc, but all we get is continuous Ortegas-brand snark and jokes. And why would any starfleet shuttle not launch with some emergency rations, water, hand phasers, and so on? My corporate jet has more survival...

...or another. Is SNW the show I thought it would be when it started out...not so much. But it isn't all bad, and in terms of crews I'd like to work with, this one is definitely up there. Mostly because they can talk and joke around. Do not need that super rigid professionalism anywhere in my life.

...duel. The Metron even says the Gorn would have destroyed them. There's no evidence the Gorn want anything other than to kill everyone to protect their world from what they perceive as a hostile invasion by the Federation. Really, SNW showing a kind(?) Gorn contradicts TOS lmao. (this is a joke)

Alexei: We are the Thunderbolts! Bucky: I don't know what that means. That's what you get for joining the group late, Bucky! You miss out on all of the inside jokes and cliques.

...But an hour later it was back to the doldrums. Renko was replaced by Yanyan, a rather foul mouthed Andorian pilot who liked to tell lurid sex jokes that didn’t make much sense from a human point of view, and so were plausibly inoffensive enough to keep her out of trouble. But what she got...

...from preserving the Aztec Empire. I question the historical veracity of this, but I really don't know. The bad gunpowder is sort of a running joke. :rommie: Drink! "By the way, I've raised your security clearance to level seven." Would they be ruins at that point? What the hell? Aren't...

Kevin Killiany actually used the bathroom anecdote in his Strange New Worlds story "Indomitable."

I think that's a joke Walter Koenig tells at conventions. In DC Comics' Who's Who in Star Trek, Allan Asherman explained that Chekov was serving in Engineering before being transferred to the bridge (like Kevin Riley), and Khan remembered him because he led the defense against Khan's takeover...

"Would you like a lap dance while your car goes thru the wash?"

...first time I went to the movies and wished that I hadn't. Comedy doesn't always work well era to era. It's like reading old Roman or Victorian jokes and just not getting it. "Take back Joe Piscopo" -Tom Petty and Bob Dylan (from Jamming Me). They got it. Sometimes it was funny for the wrong...

...character to go out. Another thing was in one of the Captain's Logs books, in an interview I think pre the release of Season 7 of TNG someone jokes that William Shatner will be a regular in Season 8. But twelve year old me thought that was really going to happen and I often wondered if that...

I've never seen either of those episodes, but the joke sounds like a callback to Kirk's attempt at explaining Spock's appearance to the cop in "City on the Edge of Forever." I mean, would anyone, even in 1930, think Spock looked "obviously Chinese"?

This feels like something that would and should have happened in a TOS Trek movie. Excellent idea!

Prior to you never know but I'm not sure things were functioning anatomically well at the end. *insert Guy Gardener joke

The point of the episode was not to give Trekkies a nice walkthrough in their favorite familiar approving cozy 23rd century setting. It was a story about a critical mission told from the POV of one outsider who for personal reasons wanted to challenge the received wisdom about what Starfleet...
