Star Trek Discovery: The Bryan Fuller TV reboot

Either one with the main viewscreen or in engineering where they're sifting through possible spots, but I wouldn't rewatch just to find it,
especially since random space features in the corner incidentally resembling a creepy face is just as likely!

Ok the library one was fun - esp with Lok getting killed - and presumably reanimated in ep 10? And Moll leading a Breen insurrection Lol - felt like it had a hint of that old school Discovery jack-knife plotting going on - probably the most engaged I have felt all season - and kind of relieved that all the macguffiny clue stuff is done

i keep watching this season and it's all watchable but never great or even GOOD really. michael burnham takes a test and the crew plays musical chairs with positions. the serial killer bad guys are treated with kid gloves and every decision michael burnham makes ends up working. michael burnham michael burnham michael burnham.

latest episode has an absolute classic “we are in grave peril but must take 5 to talk about feelings” scene - also a “you got this” - but sadly no-one “feels seen” so can only award four stars (it was a pretty fun one and I am genuinely mildly intrigued re the finale)

Was there a specific & unrealistic countdown involved? Literally every episode of STD includes someone saying "we've only got 45 minutes to solve this problem!" And usually it's a weird problem that contains a scale of information beyond human comprehension, originating from a long-dead civilization or in a language no one understands... to which Burnham will helpfully say "I need ideas, let's figure this out!"

if that's part of some kind of STD bingo game, you won!
but if it's some kind of "take a shot" game, you're dead of alcohol poisoning!

Well, that was the most tedious series finale of all time

Star Trek: Tedium

these lord of the rings endings should be illegal

ENOUGH

JUST END IT FFS

Well it was fortuitous we've been watching Enterprise at the moment...
Kovich is DANIELS!? I said "OH MY GOD" loudly at the screen at that. I honestly thought he was gonna turn out to be a Q.

That bit aside, yeah this was like 30 mins too long - the whole coda was a snorefest of back-patting indulgence.

Angry Saru was pretty cool though.

I was planning to watch this season - but now, maybe not.

Unrelatedly I only just learnt about this originally being a Rod song from Patch Adams (!)
