Doug Jones lives for that stuff.
He's a guest at our big con this May. I'm hoping COVID doesn't postpone it again.
I'm very much seeing shades of TNG's "Home Soil" in that preview.
The guy is a fine actor, but I find the character doesn't give him a lot to do. I could be expecting too much though.
Howwwwwwww?
I just do.
That’s really not a good enough answer. How is he creepy?
Creepy is a very negative term, at least in my experience.Wow. I just felt that with certain scenes of him. It's probably based on my experiences with people over the years, not necessarily aware of exactly why. It's Human nature. Alright? Why do you care?
Just curious.and?
Because creepy has just an overly negative connotation.Wow. I just felt that with certain scenes of him. It's probably based on my experiences with people over the years, not necessarily aware of exactly why. It's Human nature. Alright? Why do you care?
Nothing about him seems creepy at all, just a caring figure, he is the shops counselor now anyways.
There's a huge range of creepiness. There are folks who are outright creepy while others might have traits or tendencies that might creep out certain folks. I've known people who creeped out certain folks when I didn't see it. It's all based on people's experiences prior to those encounters/views. It's not black and white.
Culber is a little too saccharine for my tastes, and often over-earnest but I wouldn’t say he’s creepy.
Trekmovie is speculating that the Gilligan Island reference in the latest episode may not have been just something for fun and could signal that Discovery, like S.S.Minnow , may not be coming back from its 3 hour tour:

I am not buying it, too much of a stretch. It was just a harmless nod to a beloved TV series.

I definitely thought "Oh that's not a good sign" when he said it.
Reasons they might not be coming back:
Reasons they might not be coming back:
- It wouldn't be the first time Discovery's made a huge irreversible change to its situation.
- Every important character aside for Tilly, Vance, Gray and Burnham's mother is already on the ship or heading there.
- It'll get the ship out of Starfleet Academy's back yard.
- It'll mean they never have to show us what happened to the Klingons.
- The series still hasn't connected to Calypso yet.
- The ship's too fragile and has to keep going back home to have a new hull put on.
- Discovery has never been about space exploration.
On that particular point, I'd think they'd want to have the ship around for the Starfleet Academy series in order to have crossovers happen. It's kind of hard at the moment to have a crossover involving Disco, Picard and SNW because they're all in different time periods, but with two shows in the 32nd century, they're not going to want to create a situation where they can't have crossovers with each other. Especially since crossovers are so en vogue these days.
I dunno, the way Discovery jumped time periods and set up SNW at the same time gave me the impression that they actually want to keep the series separated. It wouldn't surprise me too much if they pulled the same trick here, setting up Starfleet Academy and then giving the 32nd century Milky Way to it in the same season.
