Also, her main character trait in the show is being a lonely misfit looking for something or someone to belong to. What better way to do that than being the head of the collective? She’s already shown to be able to exert some control over the Borg by stealing memories from the queen. Would be a natural progression to…

My money is on Jurati being the Borg queen seen in the first episode.

My barometer is, does the scene not work if you don’t know or recognize the person in the cameo? In this case, she’s playing a character, and does it fine, and who she is outside of playing that character doesn’t matter as much. (Same with The Rock’s cameo on Voyager, back in the day. If you didn’t know the context,…

They can't help themselves.

I was hoping that they would stay away from Kirk, maybe a off handed line about how there’s this rising star hotshot Lieutenant on the USS Farragut who is someone for Pike to watch out for in the future.

I kind of the liked the dumb throwaway line to explain why Guinan has gotten older despite her basically being an immortal El Aurian ‘Oh I just decided to look older’

“Negan and Maggie move to a rundown major metropolitan city. Where they begin to rebuild society, and probably hook up along the way...”

There is no world where the person that bashed in my fiance’s head with a baseball bat becomes anyone other than someone I will kill. I’ve not watched in a few seasons, but the whole Negan isn’t bad is dumb.

As out of fashion as “episodic” shows have become with everyone treating shows like really long movies you watch a bit at a time, I really do hope that we get some of that short story feel back with this show. In TOS, it’s that one where Kirk fights the Gorn, or the one with the pon far fight music, or the one where…

He’s Batfapping.

In that picture I’m getting this serious “what if John Oliver was Asian?” vibe.

Well none of the CW shows have been officially renewed yet, so I am still hoping for the best

I don't seem to remember ever owning a star.

Obi Wan? Now that’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time.

The death watch mandalorian who saved Din as a kid was Obi!

Okay but it’s gonna be a Lana Del Rey cover.

Janeway: Good work Ensign.

They didn’t need to go with full serialization or anything, but just having stuff that happens matter from week to week, at least being referenced in future episodes.

You sort of have that with Prodigy now.  Granted its a kid friendly version of things, but it is fairly similar premise.
