    Who are your favorite Discovery characters and why?

    This has probably been covered in multiple threads, but opinions evolve and the last season is approaching. I plan to watch because there’s still a lot I like and it’s Star Trek, even though there are also some things I don’t enjoy quite as much. I watch for characters, relationships, and plot...

    Survey for graduate statistics class project

    Hi, I’m taking a graduate statistics class, for which I had to create an anonymous Qualtrics survey, gather data and will need to write a paper. The topic is differences in how people remember and dream — aphantasia, if anyone is familiar. It’s anonymous, I will never know who answered or what...

    T’Veen one quarter Deltan

    This is a really cool interview with the actress who plays T’Veen. Apparently she and the producers have agreed that T’Veen is three quarters Vulcan and one quarter Deltan. I’m hoping for more background on the character. That would be quite a love story/family dynamic for fan fiction writers to...

    How does Calypso happen?

    After the last episode, right now I think the “away crew” is in the transporter pattern buffer during Calypso. Maybe they got thrown back in time during the temporal wars and the captain told Zora to wait out the 1,000 years in some out of the way location to avoid violating the laws against...

    Kirk more serious than I remember

    It’s funny how time and the recent movies altered my perception of the character Jim Kirk. I’ve rewatched some of the original episodes in order and original Kirk is both smarter, more controlled, and more haunted than I remembered. Of course they’re also all a lot more sexist.

    Generational ship

    Realistically, a ship with 60 to 80 mostly young people of child bearing age, adrift in a new time period and cut off from other ships, would start hooking up and having kids. I always thought it was odd that Voyager didn’t have more kids born over the five years. I’d like to see some...

    What species was Bjayzl?

    She looked so much like Deanna Troi that I have been thinking of her as a villainous Betazoid, maybe one with lower telepathic capabilities.

    Narek Hrai Yan

    I know they are the villains but I like Narek Hrai Yan and his sister/Tal Shiar handler Narissa. Looking at it from their perspective, they are protecting their decimated people and the universe in general from the deadly threat posed by synthetic life forms. Soji and Dahj are likeable but maybe...

    Gary Seven, the Aegis and the Red Angel

    Is there any chance that the group behind Gary Seven from Assignment Earth will turn out to be the group behind the Red Angel? I also wonder if there’s a connection with Future Guy or Daniels from Enterprise.

    Ezri or Jadzia

    Which Dax did people like better? I just watched DS9 all the way through for the first time on Netflix. I found Jadzia rather annoying in the early episodes. It was a combination of the acting and of the writers not seeming to know quite what to do with her. The episode where she tried to turn...

    Why is Burnham in a different prison uniform?

    The other prisoners being transported are all in gray jumpsuits at the beginning of the third episode. Burnham is in mustard yellow. I suppose it’s done for aesthetic reasons, to make her stand out on screen, but I wonder what the story behind it is. Was she in a different prison that wears...

    What if Burnham and Discovery were erased from the timeline?

    My current theory is that Burnham, Discovery and the different Klingons are all from a version of the timeline that was erased or rerouted prior to the start of the original series. Burnham might eventually make the heroic decision to erase the timeline for the good of the universe.Hence Spock...

    Elizabeth, Spock, Sela and other hybrids

    I watched the episode featuring Trip and T'Pol's ill-fated Elizabeth. It seems to imply that Vulcans and humans can't reproduce without medical intervention, as apparently happened when Spock was conceived more than a hundred years later. But wasn't there an alternate timeline in Star Trek: The...

    Kirk's Orion bed buddy

    I thought Orion women during classic Trek were all slaves and under the control of the Orion men. It was interesting to see a liberated green Star Fleet cadet.

    Kirk's older brother Sam?/The walking kid

    Did they do away with Kirk's big brother George Samuel Jr.? Who was the kid that 10-year-old Jim waved at while driving the stolen car? Was the guy on the phone his mother's boyfriend or Sam?
