    Have to say that I really enjoyed Carpool Karaoke with SMG, Rapp, Wiseman, and Jones!
    Disclaimer: I was one of those DS9 fans who actually liked Vic Fontaine. I'm a huge cornball and a Broadway nerd, so this kind of thing is right up my alley.

    It's only 15 minutes long. I didn't know Doug Jones came out of high school during the disco era. Of course, Mary Wiseman's a nerd like the rest of us. It's not surprising that Sonequa was a STEM nerd in high school. And it was sheer hilarity listening/watching to Anthony Rapp trying not to outsing everyone.

    10/10, would recommend. Also would love a DISCO musical episode, although I'd wager most Trek fans would not.

    It really was a joy to watch. I kind of just put it on in the background while I was cooking, expecting not to like it too much. I ended up grinning from ear to ear at times.

    Anthony Rapp also made a Twin Peaks reference about halfway through, which made my week.

    Doesn’t stop him going to all the conventions. Must have been busy.

    I'll have to catch it on youtube, I don't have the Apple TV app.
    Ha! I wanted an Enterprise musical. Bakula was a singer. Seriously though, if/when Wilson Cruz comes back, that'll be two singers, so who knows. :)

    Tons of fun. Just saw a professional live production of Rent a few weeks ago (not the dumb FOX special). Great show and love the fact that they have no problem making fun of themselves (and us).

    To bad it only works for Apple products.
    And it's also not FREE to watch.

    Still kinda not going to work unless one wants to jump through hoops to get it to work on a non-apple PC.

    All those scenes filmed in costume and on set are now in-universe canon. You can't prove me wrong.

    As a friend has noted, you can tell who has a background in musical theater, and who does not. A rollercoaster of cringe and delight, I'd say.

    I saw the Seasons of Love parody the other the other day, and I loved it. Now I kind of want a musical episode of Discovery. Anyone know if Shazad Latif, Anson Mount or any of the other bride crew actors can sing?
