I don’t get the feeling he was offfended, the poster was just offering commentary and making valid points. It was sexist and we (meaning me for sure) accepted it back then. Just look at the uniforms for the females. Yikes! I loved it back then, along with the styrofoam rocks.

Certain phrases have a way a hanging around. People still say “let’s watch the tape” or “did you tape it?” When hardly anyone tapes anything anymore.

Agree to both of these. First Booker should have died and that’s the end of it. Second, he should be in line for serious punishment. Third, Michael should not be so forgiving of him. He betrayed her in very serious way that made her look like an idiot. She should have hit him with a KO...

Do you seriously not understand the purpose of a winking emoji?

If Booker exits the show, as I think he must (IMHO), I hope they keep Grudge. She’s the better actor anyway. ;)

And you know people who have the fate of billions of people on their shoulders? I wrote code for banking computers and I felt pressure from time to time (mostly about keeping my job). It seems reasonable for the crew to display signs of pressure.

I’m the opposite. Transporting living beings molecule by molecule over any distance and reassembling something that complex, that’s the impossible for me. However, it’s Star Trek, and I’m in for it. A.I., now that’s possible, I think there are people alive today who will see self-aware...

I find I’m agreeing to just about everything here. Book has committed the ultimate betrayal, and if Burnham trusts him after this, she’s not fit to command. He’s got to be done when this story arc is resolved. This is far bigger than personal revenge, if he can’t see that, he should not be in...

After reading these two quotes I looked her up and now I hope she does get a body, her own, for discovery.

Perhaps I missed it. Was all the crew put into the buffer so that all ship energy could be put into the shields? As for why Burnham didn’t eventually go into the buffer, perhaps it gave Zora more incentive to succeed? This surprised me. It didn’t expect such a good and emotional version of...

Yeah, irritating for sure. I hope I have not been one to make the same complaint over and over. I have enjoyed shows that don’t have season long arcs and instead are contained in a single episode and Strange New Worlds promises to be that. However, I like both. BTW, after a lifetime of...

I watch it on Paramount + and we do get the occasional profanity, which always surprises me a little. This is Star Trek, you know.

I knew it. The only question now

There have at least been lots of sparks and smoke since TOS.

For a moment or two I thought it looked like the CBS network eye. When Tilley was saying stuff like “Things just don’t feel the same way that they used too like, I don’t know something’s off” I started to wonder if the actor is leaving the show.

But perhaps symbolically, it’s very important, since the Federation is being reborn in that space dock.

Is it supposed to be better than the Discovery’s spore drive?

Uh, I think it’s that last sentence that says you’re old.;) Of course, when I first started watching movies on tv sitting 12” away from the 12” b&w set I could semi-create the circle-around by leaning left and right. And when the scene really got me going I’d pace back and forth while...

I found the Ferengi in DS9 annoying and uninteresting. I hope they’re better this time or are not featured. Did that anomaly look like the CBS eye?

I don’t understand what you are saying.

Is Discovery broadcast with commercials in Canada?

When the episode was over, my wife and I both said “now that’s a season ender!” Then we both thought “Was that a series finale?” We watched a few minutes of the Will Wheaton show to verify that the series will continue and just enough that the actor (forget his name) portraying Saru expects to...

Let me make sure I understand the cause of the burn. It happened because a (kelpian) child got emotional on a planet full of dilithium?

Wheatons show did point out the actress who portrayed Airiam (who died) is now back on discovery portraying Lt. Nilsson. I would never have caught that. But you guys knew that already.

A little off track, but after watching Disco last night we were thrus into that Will Wheaton show. Only the second time I’ve watched it. Somebody has got to tell Will to cut back on the espresso. Jeez, he’s hyper.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Is Adira a metaphor for a current-day non-binary person? Is it fair to say a non-binary person feels a like they are hosting another person?

The Discovery has the most advanced propulsion system in history. Advantage Discovery. The Federation has withdrawn into a shell and barely peeks out from it. Advantage Discovery. Discovery has brought something into the future that the Federation has lost, the desire to “seek out new life...

Tilly’s promotion is almost as egregious as my promotion from E1 to E4 after my advanced training in the Army. It was totally underserved.:cool:

Well it is more than 1K years into the future (Discovery’s future) so it’s gotta look spiffier. Once done, it probably makes it easier to repair/replace the nacelles.
