The show has no fucking clue.  Other than “fan service, fan service, and MORE Fan Service!”

The first season was very, very good. S2 was a series of backdoor pilots for the Disney Content Factory that forgot to tell a compelling story beyond remember this???

Counterpoint: Lower Decks is hilarious and has only gotten better this season. 

That last shot though. Goddammit.

Not holding my breath but I would love to see a live action Captain Carter movie (or at least a live action canon where she exists).

Avengers Endgame: “We can do time travel, but things have to end up the same way or weird stuff will happen.”

rest in power, King.

Darcy next episode

So it wasn’t just me. I feel like they’re taking what was a fun, continuity-light space western and shoving it into the mediocre modern Star Wars “canon,” which, maybe the reason it was so successful was because it was its own thing, Disney. 

While I appreciate that the show is FINALLY at least paying lipservice to what passes as its larger story arc, I found this episode to be astonishingly dull.

Voyager and Enterprise didn’t suck. In fact Voyager is currently the most streamed Star Trek series and Enterprise was redeemed over time. Both of those shows suffered from exactly what Discovery has to deal with, people claiming it’s ruining Star Trek and it doesn’t respect the franchise that spawned it.  

fans: THIS IS NOT STAR TREK!

• “All time travel technology was destroyed after the temporal wars.” Hey, that sounds like a pretty cool story, why don’t you do a show about that. 

At this point, I think it’s safe to say ‘a disappointing Star Trek: Picard’ is a bit redundant.

And then Janeway pulls up in a tricked-out Voyager, wearing weirdly opaque shades. “Picard! You have to come back with me!”

Tell that to all the grown men who are still crying actual tears about Luke Skywalker in The Last Jedi.

Hey, if it makes you feel better, the dude you’re arguing with created a burner specifically to be shitty to people online. Because that’s totally normal, not-at-all-deeply-weird behavior that indicates a shit-ton about the person behind the keyboard.

Just a heads up: If you get shitty or mean in these comments I’ll remove them. Go be an asshole somewhere else. 

I’m calling the snake-Hitler “Hissler.” Haven’t come up with a good name for snake-Lincoln yet.

Only by people who insisted that Fallout 4 should have been exactly like New Vegas.
