I’m pretty sure they “found” the tracking protein as the way they located William. Rather than tracking him continuously, she stuck him with it back in ep 4, then searched for it later to figure out where he was. And the finger-biting was clearly part of the AR simulation — remember, it turned out he still had the…

I don’t know what’s wrong with Kinja these days, but I couldn’t comment last week and still can’t see the comments there, so I’m putting my two cents in here instead: I think I’ve figured out the Narek-Narissa incest-or-is-it thing. They’ve literally been addressing each other as “Brother” and “Sister” haven’t they?…

You’re onto something that hadn’t occurred to me. He didn’t call the painting “My Daughter” — just “Daughter.” Could’ve been a warning.

At this point I’m wondering if Q is going to turn up, take a look around, and just go, “WTF, Jean-Luc? You were doing so well!”

Continues the tradition started with Planet Reise (Rysa). Maybe they should stop letting high school foreign language students name planets.

You know, you’ve just made the best argument I’ve encountered for why I should give Discovery a chance after all. (Well, that and the fact that I’m paying for the CBS thing now anyways.) So, I commend you for that.

The unspoken next line being “And I can’t wait to unwrap you.”

Like when Jake Gyllenhaal eats a salad alone in public (WEIRD)

I was prepared for Ruth Wilson to be disappointing in this role, and instead it’s like it was made for her. This is going to sound petty, but I usually have trouble taking her seriously because of her resting duck face. Not here though. She’s doing everything right.

It’s like after the second episode, they decided “screw it let’s go full supernatural”.

Excellent choice of still images. And was that closing music not the best ever? Not just the choice of song, but also the way this particular rendition conveyed the episode title’s “almost religious awe”?

The Lay of Leithian is about Lúthien — “Leithian” isn’t a person.

Just a nitpick: The singular is Maia.

So just to be clear —

I think you mean “puck parming and sopt pood”

Not in Britain. The written (i.e., historical) record in Britain begins with Roman settlement.

So, call me a monster, but: once the finale was over, I realized that the only thing I was really disappointed about was that we didn’t get to see what would have happened if the Night King had actually won. I don’t know why, but for some reason, some part of me wanted to see that. I think I sort of felt like one of…

Wait, Gloucester?? That’s ... a long way from Sheffield.
