Cool Breaking Bad Easter egg I noticed was the amount taken in the Fring sting was 710,000 dollars. The same amount Hank tells Walt in the Pilot episode was the most he’d ever taken in a bust.

If Kestra is as old as the actress playing her, she’s 14, so she was born around 2385, which would have made Deanna 49 when she had her.

Betazoids may indeed have a longer fertility period, as Lwaxana Troi was pregnant in the DS9 episode “The Muse,” taking place in 2372 when she would have presumably been in her 60s

I didn’t even realize it was supposed to be Han’s in the movie.

Does anyone think that JJ Abrams took the time out to read some comic from 5 years ago?

I still say Nacho gets a head injury, makes it to Manitoba, then heads east and ends up in Toronto, where he meets up with this English con woman who has a lot of siblings...

Okay, but what if I’m dating Natalie Dormer?

It’s got to be stressful when your granddaughter never grows past age 10.

“Bake’em away, toys”

Wiggum would have said something like “Well, there’s your problem. Someone stuffed sugar packets in the drain pipe!” then proceeds to dump a couple into his coffee.

The only worrisome note sounds when Lalo says he’s got something “much better” planned for Domingo than Nacho ensuring his silence in custody.

Late to the party again, but some musings anyway, prefaced by the fact that I absolutely adore Star Trek TNG, DS9 and even Voyager. I want and need this show to be good, and I will keep watching, because I didn’t wait 18 freakin’ years for more Prime Universe Star Trek, only to stop watching at the earliest sign of

The plot is moving slower than really expensive kanar. 

Zach has identified the weakness of this episode and the show generally, but he’s being too nice/not critical enough. While Picard is a step up from Discovery, in that it’s not downright stupid, it’s filled with lazy Hollywood cliche after cliche. Hero gets broken so the writers can build him back up and give him an

It’s like Chabon was like, “let’s do Trek, but with a rag tag crew of disillusioned malcontents like Firefly...but they’ll fly on a sparsely decorated ship with holographic controls like The Expanse...but there’s a robot who doesn’t know she’s a robot like Battlestar.”

Also, when Narek is told that the robot has a plan, I’m thinking “I fucking hope so, the last time I was assured by a longtime Trek writer that robots had plans it didn’t end well.”

I almost can’t stand how stupid this show is. I can tell you for a fact that the writers have never actually watched Star Trek. There’s no way. It’s like the worst kind of fan fiction that some twelve-year-old could come up with. They throw in stuff from what ever other cartoon or toy they happen to be playing with

Speaking of the header pic...why do I get the sense the ‘inspiration’ for the bridge layout and design came from the Normandy?

How do forensics recreate dialogue??

Trek has tried to remake Wrath of Khan several times and couldn’t do it. From, Nemesis to Into Darkness and even the best effort, the Eddington arc of DS9, these stories made it about being a revenge tale. Star Trek Picard did it by capturing the central theme of Wrath of Khan

Dear god, it was nice to see Star Trek directed in a way that is calm and thoughtful again.
