What did Rob Burnett do with his day, today?

This is a fantastic behind the scenes shot! Wesley has a Shatner kind of look here.

 

[Mid Mod]

I watch Rob Burnett on the John Campea Show and actually find his knowledge and comments insightful—on everything BUT Star Trek. He suffers from Gatekeeper Syndrome when it comes to Star Trek.

Shades of Doomcock...

Worst... Show... EVAAAAAARRRR!!!

Campea had him back after the furor over RMB's "Shoot to kill!" Tweets died down, eh? Thought he'd stepped back.

Is that why RMB left? Yeesh. He’s back on Campea as an occasional guest vs. a regular like before.

In any group like seen in the above photo, always strive to be Sam Kirk.

 

[Mudd]

Sorry, i'd rather be Ethan Peck.

Just glad not to be RMB.

 

[cooleddie74]

Most of us are.

Sorry, i'd rather be Ethan Peck.

Based on that BTS photo (especially with Paul Wesley in the same shot), Ethan Peck would give Chris Evans some competition in the “superhero physique” department.

I’m convinced that RMB spends his days sucking on lemons. The man’s a sour puss.

and he looks like santa claus.

 

[NCC-73515]

The musical will happen because they're trying to speed up subspace comms and try to send music, which apparently causes the wave from the trailer that turns everyone into dancers and singers

The bitter humiliation of having participated enthusiastically in the Axanar scam leaves a mark.

Based on the Ready Room clip for the next episode, "Under the Cloak of War" might be our Ortegas episode.

Or not.

I wish there was more than 10 episodes. 13-15 seems to be a sweet spot (Discovery has 13 episode seasons). We're almost done with Season 2 of SNW and it still feels like it just started.

It did just start. June 2nd to August 10th is a very short season.

 

[Yistaan]

So 2 episodes left. The musical, and then Hegemony which I assume is all about the Gorn.

Unless Sybok's showing up next week singing religious hymns for God or something, it seems the tease last season for his upcoming appearance isn't going to be fulfilled this season.

 

[matthunter]

Henry Archer's biography is a mess. He apparently died when Jonathan was 12, but is elsewhere said that he gave Jonathan advice for flight school. Maybe Jonathan's a kid pilot like Anakin Skywalker?

Parents do sometimes record inspirational videos for their kids.

 

[Jason W]

I feel like the season needs another episode or two? I dunno how seriously the musical is gonna be delivering what needs to be delivered.

The musical is what needs to be delivered. And so is the episode after that.

Maybe some people want something different? Well, maybe some other time.

What is needed? I thought it was entertainment. I thought the goal was TOS style, episodic, mix of stories.
