This was good, you almost forget it was the goofy parody the show was when it started. Most episodes have one or two gags crowbar in but this was like a straight Treklike episode. It has personal stakes will The Doctor win Isaac around, can Isaac be redeemed and wider stakes ie we rarely get a feel of who the Union

This was a really great episode, one that would not have been at all out of place compared against some really good TNG episodes. A all the way for me. I hope they stick the landing on the second part, because the first part was an excellent and engaging hour of television.

I don’t think they don’t need a planet like Earth, specifically. But they are convinced that all biologicals will attempt to impede their ‘evolution,’ and Earth is the seat of the Union, which they must feel is the biggest potential threat to their growth, so they feel it necessary to take it out. I think they

I think it’s hilarious that in the original S31 episode, “Inquisition,” Sloan literally tells us that Section 31 is a branch of Starfleet Intelligence with an official designation, and then Sisko proceeds to tell us that Starfleet Command doesn’t deny it, and we all collectively put our fingers in our ears for two

I think everyone misses this fucking part and it annoys me to no end. She NEVER STARTED THE WAR. She was blamed for it, but she never started it!

Totally real. Scott Grimes has a damn good singing voice. He also does the voice of Steve Smith on American Dad where his singing talent is occasionally displayed.

Talk about having a Headcannon.

From last week’s preview, I thought they might be related to Armus in some way. I’m still not convinced that isn’t the case, a being that is literally pure liquid evil had no reason to be honest about its origins. The Ba’ul look a bit more structured, but...it’s an idea that sits comfortably.

I feel like the whole “wait, how does all of Starfleet know about Section 31?” thing could be easily explained: just expand on the hints in the very beginning of the first season that Discovery was originally a Section 31 project. Remember how that black badge confused Michael when she saw one on a guard in

Except that, while Michael did break the rules, she did NOT start the war. The war started because her warnings were ignored.

Did anyone else think that the twist was going to be that the Ba’ul were going to be revealed that they were actually Evolved Kelpians and the real reason why the Kelpians were taken into Space was it was part of their evolutionary process. The Great Balance was all just a myth to keep immature Kelpians docile so they

He is suffering from a bad case of having shitty parents.  I guarantee his parents have on faux all day.

Why not gender swap them? it could lead to interesting avenues for story telling. 

I’m a huge fan of STContinues, and yeah, all of this makes me feel conflicted about rewatching the ‘season’ again, especially with Michelle’s comments added to the mix of accusations. 

This article definitely feels like another nail in the coffin that is his career in the voice industry.

It’s long-winded, and there’s probably a link about it somewhere. But the short of it is: Up until about the late 1990s/2000s, the typical Japanese person’s career would be committed for life to a single company upon graduation from college until retirement. The salaryman was an ideal in postwar Japan, and it showed

There is so much smoke, I can’t even pretend to be able to see if theres a fire below it.

That’s...absolutely what I said. Which is why I advocated for simply flipping them off and telling them to go fuck themselves, if you have to do something about it. Saying “everyone has their own way of getting through the day” doesn’t mean “this shit’s okay.” I means “everyone’s got their own way, but this way is

Eesh. I remember the frustration I felt with entitled, shitty customers when I worked food service, but I never once felt the need or desire to interfere with their food—especially in a way that could make them ill.

Everybody’s got their own methods of making it through the day/sticking it to the man, but it occurs to

Why even ask? I would think the less data to keep track of, the better. So, not only is it extremely unnecessary, but it would be beneficial to not even ask.
