Part 3 seems to be down. Was looking forward to it too, since I'd finally seen the animated version.

Wanna know the sad part? Despite it being a comedy show and deliberately over the top, she still came off better than that idiot Captain Jellico from Chain of Command. At least she didn't override the recommendations of the entire command staff and ignore the chief engineer when she implemented her...

Saw the first three eps. Overall liked it. Mariner is a bit hard to like for me. She feels a lot like "Rick Sanchez: The Teenage Years", and boy do I not like Rick Sanchez (post season 1). Boimler is the rules-obsessed butt-monkey and that's certainly a trope that hasn't been beaten into the ground....

Original statement: "X sucks because he's in category Y." But Baras doesn't suck because he's in category Y. Then why is "because he's in catagory y" the punchline to most of the jokes at his expense? His fatness and bad personality is a unique combination inviting it... That's an excuse, not an ex...

I really need to get something off my chest. The shear pervasiveness of the fat jokes that have not only been really off-putting and gross, but has really been coming off as lazy . Like, fat-jokes are some of the lowest-hanging fruit you can go for, and Chuck goes for it every single time . I used t...

The Lord Gratham quest is even better as a man. Seducing his wife before his body is even cold just adds that final black comedy touch to push it over the edge. Even Baras gets a laugh out of it. Vette's facepalm while the Warrior brags about it is pure comedic gold. Baras actually holds his heart ...

SW was always my favorite story and Baras was always my favorite villain, easily being one of the most well-written alongside Dath Jadus and Valkorion. Also, while I usually frown at fat-jokes in comedy (it sits right above "man in dress" in terms of low-hanging fruit), the "butter in mayonnaise" bi...

Found this show a bit late and still making my way through S1, but I thought I'd toss in my opinion of a couple of things, specifically about episode 3. Forced gender assignment at birth is a HUGE problem for people born intersex. Medically unnecessary surgeries on intersex infants happen to roughly...

Good to hear he's doing okay. Take care and blessings be upon a speedy recovery to him.
