Just necroreplying on this. But why would Bashir not have done a deep dive by this point? I mean, he's got Starfleet's only Klingon living on the station, and possibly Martok as well by this point.
Setting aside my thoughts about the Movie Event.
I like the concept that there are continuing and repeated incursions into the 20th and 21st Centuries by temporal actors, which are repeatedly changing the events leading to the Eugenics Wars and hence the date. La'an's visit being only one of...
If you deep watch this a bit, it looks like the story was quite different at that point and I wonder if Lorca was as well. "Ensign Michael Burnham" - I wonder how they got to that. And he asks her to take a seat - so the standee dark ready room idea hadn't made it yet either. And he doesn't have...
I'm not going to multi-quote as so many, so many but:
- The argument that there weren't going to be cameos as this was a normal finale falls down if it's borne in mind that 5.9 was a normal episode and was replete with them. That being said, yes, it could be that the cameos were aggregated into...
I forget where this was suggested, be it a random YT video or some fanfic but I liked the idea that the Xindi - immediately after the end of S3 of Enterprise, are so ashamed of what they did and nearly did to Earth. Their shame differs by species - the Primates and Arboreals feel guilt, the...
Yes - in the pilot when they incapacitate the two Kiley scientists who are then beamed to Enterprise. La'an fakes a medical distraction "His Neck - His Neck" etc.
Why is it such a problem for this to be acknowledged without attempting to fob-off?
No, don't tell me about Isa Briones and Michelle Yeoh who are not from the Indian Subcontinent or South Asia.
No, absolutely don't tell me about Ellen Landry, a character in 2 episodes and who isn't in the main...
Have you not noticed that over 20% of the world's population has not been represented as a main cast character in a Trek series. For comparison that group minus diaspora is bigger than the global population of people of black / African descent. Trek is a racist franchise. Or are you going to...
Not that I don't genuinely love Tawny Newsome to bits but there's something a bit odd about Alex Kurtzman's sudden obsession with her. Like personally intervening in the contract issue she had, getting her writing on Academy, and now this. I'm not suggesting anything pervy but more that she's...
Sonequa delivered. What an amazing and charming human she is. She seemed genuinely interested and aware of ENT. More than 50% of the time was trek related too.
Dominic still comes across as a bit of an embarrassing-dad figure doesn't he.....
It wasn't the nicest of circumstances and the way Terry was treated was poor. However, what we did get was a season of Ezri (and what a wonderful gift of a character as well as actor) and what we saw was the new host being immersed into reacquainting herself with the 20 friends on the station...
That's a valid point and they will lose views at this rate. I have absolutely no interest in Lolita Fajio unless she is going to chat about the show. I might mention that in the comments.
IRL / plothole wise stuff just sort of happened. If it had been planned logically, it would have made sense that the closer the species were in terms of genetics and design, the more likelihood that an unasissted or minimally assisted procreation would happen. That being said, the more you think...
Michelle is great to hear from and very compelling. But still almost nada about being on the series other than a bit about landing the gig. They're getting her back again though....
I do very much hope that if they are placing The Academy on Earth, they do so into San Fransisco, rather than putting it somewhere else just so they can show they are being a bit different.
I'd like to hear her talk about trek. She did Shuttlepod during the strike so that was all about the strikes and nothing about Trek of course. I don't really want to hear about the strikes this time round.
