SCOTT: Strong words from Koloth. Someone oughta hold him to it.

For me, the problem with Miranda is that he’s not a good enough actor to overcome his essential decency. Hamilton (both in history and in the musical) was a dick. I saw the Kennedy Center production in DC, and the guy who played Hamilton was much better at conveying that.

Remote uncontacted tribes in the rainforest demanded Disney+ just so they could catch this.

I would give that title to King of America, but yeah, Blood & Chocolate is an amazing album.

Eh. I don’t see what’s so bad about that uniform.

I agree up until your last sentence. I think the costuming on the modern Trek shows is a definite improvement. Especially Picard, the first Star Trek show where the civilian looks are not atrocious.

I heard a cover of “Born to Run” over the end credits.

At one point, I couldn’t tell whether I agreed with Gloria or Bella—I could clearly see both sides, and I wasn’t sure what I’d do in that case. I will say I skew more towards Gloria’s idealism, but I prefer Bella’s talking style.

An odd comment to make about a show that mostly shows people (well, the feminists, at least) making compromises and squabbling with each other.

Turns out she’s the secret granddaughter of the (presumed dead, but really still alive) founder of the Twelve.

We went on after the cloggers, and our show music was interrupted by the bugle that heralds the pig races.

Um, spoiler alert, please?

You’re close. The question is more like “Will they kill each other OR sleep together?” But it has the same problem, in that you can only string the audience along for so long. Especially since it seems like the answer is always “They’ll kiss and then try to kill each other in the season finale, and then start all over…

Granted, this might make the the series harder to stomach, as people want to embrace heroes,

to Betty (and us), her disinterest in engaging with Phyllis seems naïve.

Pretty accurate, actually.

I do like how they drop in a few of Phyllis’ opinions that were a consequence of the liberation movement. Yeah, women often do feel guilty or tired juggling work and children

Mary calling the Cyberman “The Modern Prometheus.” In the context of her time, that feels completely random since she hasn’t begun writing her novel yet, especially since the title “modern Prometheus” is generally agreed to refer to Victor Frankenstein, not his monster.

Not theory. Fact.

They probably wanted her interacting acerbically with everyone at Mission Control and The Other President next season.
