This comment is perfection itself. I’m disappointed more people didn’t get it.

The biggest missed opportunity: Drunk Becky didn’t call her sister Larlene or Dardene.
Last night’s Star Trek: Discovery was a pretty good episode of Battlestar Galactica.
I am so glad that Sarek had a goatee. Even though he’s technically not really “evil” over here. Which then begs the question of how Spock wound up in the Terran Empire. Maybe Amanda got pregnant with him and ran away back to Earth and so he grew up around humans?
Oh my god! they killed Culber! you bastards!
But of course they did. The history of the depiction of gay men and women throughout film and television is ripe with stories of tragedy and death. Unfortunate to see that still holds true all the way to the 23rd century in what is supposed to be a forward thinking…
I suppose it’s possible no one actually did buy in, and they were all just humoring him but that somehow makes the whole thing worse.
Carol’s two-word response to the king’s question was worth the flashback: “Something happened.” Now have sex already.
I think they should have made it a little more obvious, but I think the writers intention was that Lorca manipulated Stamets into doing the final jump.
Frankly, if I was Doug Jones, I’d be pissed. I know he had a big part on the singing planet episode, but I still feel like his character is being written out of show. Burnham and Tyler are sucking all the oxygen out of the room.
I think a lot of us (including Lorca) don’t believe for a second Star Fleet is giving Lorca a medal. It’s all just a lure just to get Lorca to that Starbase so they can relieve him of his command. And just wait until Admiral Cornwell (Jayne Brook’s character) wakes up from surgery.
I get that, but my point was initially he just wanted to warp to the station, but Stamets volunteers to do one more spore drive jump. So what are Lorca’s motivations? Was he just going to do the override thing the next time they jumped, whenever it took place? And he seems surprised when they show up wherever it is…
But, wasn’t that last jump Stamet’s idea? Unless Lorca is a master manipulator and used reverse psychology to get him to volunteer for one more jump. If Lorca did an intentional destination override as some are suggesting, then I would think his motives were for further down the road after the Discovery reached the…
I get the difference between killing and executing. I’m not quite sure if executing POW’s would be the right thing for this group to do in this situation or not, but I can see that the line isn’t arbitrarily drawn.
The bottom line is Maggie brokered a deal to take out Negan’s outpost thinking it was the entire group in return for food from Hilltop. Rick and Company decided to ruthlessly murder a group that did not specifically target them like paid mercenaries. To add icing on the cake, when leftover folks from that outpost…
Update: They did the exact same segment on Smackdown Tuesday night.
You might be over-thinking those plot points. It’s Z-Nation after all.
I always thought there was some degree of intention behind them being terrible people. I found it amusing that it used the tried and true “overweight, imbecile husband/sharp, good-looking wife” combo that gets you wondering “what’s a woman like her doing with a man like him?,” but then as you keep watching you realize…
Honestly, this is probably the best thing to come out of it:
Get the fuck outta here with your good ideas.
