Star Trek
Welcome to a Star Trek community where you’re free to chat and share your opinions about all things Trek!
I want to have a place where fans can come to praise, discuss, and even criticise things in the Star Trek franchise. No show or movie is perfect, and I don't believe people should be silenced for having a dissenting opinion. That being said, there are still a few rules.
Be Nice - No personal attacks. You can disagree with someone's opinion, but it needs to stop there.
No Slurs - This is applicable to ethnicity, religion, gender, or anything else.
No Adult Content - Keep it family friendly.
No Spamming or Trolling - Consistently spamming comments or trolling is just not needed.
Please keep topics Trek related or Trek adjacent for the most part, and have fun!

I really enjoyed this episode! It might have just caught me in the right mood, but it was pretty fun. I got a chuckle out of all the little mannerisms that Mount was doing as his character. (probably because I know a few people that fold their hands over their stomach!) I found Wesley's take as the captain humorous, and the Riker maneuver got a laugh as well! I had guessed the plot twist fairly early, but I wasn't entirely sure due to Spock not being seen. It still was pretty interesting to see everything laid out though.
I'm a little annoyed about the La'an and Spock romance that they were teasing in the earlier episodes, but hopefully they don't go too heavy on it. It would be nice if they could do more platonic friendships instead of seemingly everyone being romantically attracted, but it seems that's par for the course. If they can tell some good stories I'll be fine with it!
Overall I would probably give this one a 7.5 or 8. I definitely enjoyed it in the moment, but I would still prefer some deeper stories. It appears we may get some of them later in the season though.
I love that the avatars are only able to be from teleporter logs lol.
That does keep things interesting! It does make me wonder who the dead executive was though!
