Ok, I got a chuckle with your picture this week.

Ben Shapiro hates this thread.

 

I almoist understood that reference

 

Remember everyone: Vote Low for Lower Decks!

1 = Best Episode Ever.
10 = The Worst of the Lot.

If you hate this series as a whole, then fine. Go ahead and vote 10. See if we care.

If you love this series and this episode, then rank it as it should be. #1 in our hearts and #1 in your votes.

#VoteLowForLowerDecks
#MoistlySerious

 

Do you still do that?

 

Not just me. Four of us were so enthralled by last week's episode, that we gave it a score of #1 or #2. The week before, five of us voted in appreciation of Episode 2. And the premiere episode is a resounding success, with nine people giving it a #1 vote. I assume that the poor souls who gave it a bad score of nine or ten are just misinformed about the new, official voting system, mixed in with a few haters who give every episode a 10 because of their anti-nuTrek bias.

The fans of Lower Decks have spoken. Vote Low, Vote Often.

 

All the pic in the OP makes me think of is, "Clean up on Aisle 9!"

 

MARINER: "I'm not even supposed to be here today!"

-MMoM

 

I liked the bonding we got with Mariner and Freeman. They are kind of alike, both have very revealing egos. Durango the Tellerite was fun, and I really liked that we got a bit of a sci fi plot this week. The terraforming effects eating up the ship was really well done. I'm not sure how I felt about the Tendi storyline. I guess she and Rutherford are not destined to be a couple, unlike what we saw in the first episode. They do make a fun team though.

 

I officially hate Mariner now. The yawning is just way too annoying
Punishment by skipping-a-rank-promotion XD
Leafblowers are still a thing -.-
What the hell was that ascension thing? Seemed a bit like V'Ger's ascension XD
New ship class coming next week: USS Vancouver

 

SOME RANDOM THOUGHTS:

1. I wish they'd just ditch Mariner being a 5 year old. She can act out in much more believable and interesting ways.

2. However, I'm glad the crew worked together to save the day.

3. I am pretty sure Ascension Guy got eaten by that koala.

4. I think Ransom trying to get Mariner to quit is dickish of him versus his portrayal last week.

5. I actually think the generation ship was sad. Mind you, I'm wondering if it was meant for THE OUTER WORLDS game.

6. Durango is an even worse captain than Freeman.

7. I suppose Orion women are not used to being disliked.

8. I'm surprised they didn't make a "no money" joke about the poker game.

9. I notice they bleeped out what the holodeck is cleaned up for when I'm pretty sure they meant to say "cum."

10. Boimler is even more of a weasel. I don't think Mariner and he are friends.

 

that whole scene was weird. I wasn’t sure what was happening and then the Koala showed up and I figured they just went for the craziest thing possible.

 

I'm pretty sure it's a reference to Discworld, only changing the giant turtle the world rests on to a koala.

 

And it was just dismissed as not that unusual and not questioned by anyone.

 

Captain Calhoun could tell you about the Great Bird of the Galaxy.

 

Giant space amoeba and Abraham Lincoln on an armchair.

 

Which humanoid turned into those?
