Ugh, He's Kelvin Kirk with out the charm.
He's got the charm. That Han Solo swagger. Good chemistry with Jeri. He brings the levity that plays against her more serious delivery. It's a classic dynamic.
I agree with the similarities to Kelvin Kirk.
I didn't notice any charm or chemistry. I'm sure the guy is a fine actor, but there was nothing on the page.
Dry, dull, mystery box character who behaves criminally but treated as a hero.
Simply put, as a leading man he's an untrustworthy scoundrel with no sign of remorse. Be like Garak as a lead.
But, good chemistry, by all means, cast him. I'm sure I'll forgot all about his past.

I noticed his scenes were pretty well received by reviewers. He's very much a Kirk/Tom Paris type and you need that when you have such a stoic Captain.
Theres potential here for playful chemistry;
Though honestly (and this is just a theory, not inside baseball), if Matalas, Monfette and the others pen Legacy, Jack will probably be the narrative focus and lead. It's Picard S4, but without JLP. Instead you have his 'legacy' driving the story forward.
I'm not one who wants a Legacy series. I wouldn't object to it. I just have a strong suspicion it's going to be Jack's show, as much as Discovery was Burnham's journey.
He's the only Nepo that's inevitable.
Please, dont make me watch PIC3 again. Not even in small doses.
Like Thanos?
So, uninteresting, ego centric, and ultimately painful to watch. Not great inspiration there if I'm honest.
It's ok. Discovery will be on soon.
I think what frustrates me is the term "memberberry" is often applied and used in a way that completely misses the original point that the South Park creators were going for when they came up with it, along with how snide and dismissive the people who use it are. It's gotten to the point that the second I see someone use it I discount their argument pretty much immediately.
What would be a better term?
Any one that is used correctly.
Call backs.
Enlighten me, please. Since I did not watch South Park I am unfamiliar as to the proper usage of the "memberberry" term.
Sure, but those are just tools. Some work, and some don't. It's the case for all shows.
True. But it's a neutral term. No judgement.
Right. Memberberry feels like it's a reference for that most inexplicable of slang terms for the penis.True. But it's a neutral term. No judgement.
I always ask for a more precise, less slang, term.
Good point and appropriate term.True. But it's a neutral term. No judgement.
To me, I want these call backs to feel organic to the story, not inserted for the sake of it, like tribbles.
I get Kingsmen vibes from his character. Not really interested in seeing him as a lead for a series. He’d do better in a Jason Bourne like series.
So, a call back to TNG?
