I got mine on release day and I’m currently at 93% it does seem a bit much.

On the whole a solid episode and the Scott appearance was very surprising and well done.

However why the hell is Christine the only survivor on the cayuga, it makes no sense at all.

Also the fucking cliffhanger is ridiculous

Agreed, I didn’t mind Kirk being in A Quality of Mercy or Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow. However, him being in this episode just felt he was in it for the sake of it.

That’s how I felt about it myself, they knocked it out of the park.

This episode is one of the best episodes in the modern era of Trek, it’s lighthearted it’s funny it celebrates Trek and it’s done so tastefully that I genuinely have nothing bad to say about it. It reminds me of Trials and Tribble-ations.

Plus that line at the end where they tell Una ad astra per aspera and that’s why boimler joined Starfleet is just the right kind of emotions.

Honestly, they smashed it in this episode and ofc the 2d animated intro was chefs kiss.

The scene while nonsensical in terms of what we’ve established in Trek Science is at least visually cool and fun.

I’ll check out the season when it airs, I just hope it is better than I expect.

Overall a solid episode, a little different but ultimate felt very core Star Trek TOS with strange alien life and coming to a resolution.

Paul Wesley continues to impress me in the role of James T Kirk but his character did not need to be in this episode, they need to be careful with how they use him going forward.

I gotta get me one of those.

There’s also another side to it which is that there’s a very big difference in what TOS fans and TNG era fans would consider proper Star Trek.

I’ve always held the belief that SNW is very much a spiritual successor or prequel to TOS, and while TNG was a sequel in some ways to TOS it was a very different tone and style and it’s some what jarring for people who never really got into TOS to accept as Star Trek.

People think that witty banter and quips were something new to SNW but TOS was full of them the entire relationship of the Trio was built on them, or the goofy scenes where someone would do something silly like Scotty getting drunk with comedic music etc.

This combined with as you mentioned above some slight alterations to canon drives people up the wall and it’s just silly. Enjoy the show for what it is or just don’t watch it.

Honestly, the only one I still catch from time to time is Sean on Trek culture because all the other ones got absurdly hostile the last few years when it came to Discovery & Picard and it ended up with people quoting some truly insane alt right sources like midnights edge.

I find it better to just enjoy the shows and discuss on reddit(now lemmy) than watch these influencers.

TMP Era is just the best looking classic Star Trek experience some of the designs in my opinion were in things like Starfleet Command the video game like the Akula class, but I have a soft spot for the DS9/First Contact/Star Trek Armada period.

That’s awesome thanks for sharing.

10/10

Justice league of Star Trek crew ultimate team up….

Where is this movie and how do I pay to see it :/ yes it would likely be terrible but seeing Kirk vs Janeway dynamic or spock vs Kira debates arguments etc

And those are the first two that come to mind

I guess some more lore for the Talosians could be cool I just hope they aren’t over used through snw

This is pretty much me today or me any time I told any friends about Linux

Fair, I’ll just be patient
