I’ve been a longtime viewer of Chucks while opinionated, still well thought out, well-researched, and thoroughly entertaining reviews, and I came to his forums to talk about (among other things) Star Trek, a franchise that I have been a fan of for 24 years, and to try and show a positive side and di...

One thing I really would like to see in coming episodes is flexing that animation budget with non-humanoid alien regulars. That's why Peanut Hamper excited me so much. I hope Boimler's replacement is one of a horta or a bluegill parasite (Not somebody controlled by one, just a tiny little bluegill ...

Every episode ends with a moral and lesson learned? Oh dear. In the same sense that TNG does. It's not like they turn to camera and say 'we learned X today!' Indeed, this is what I meant. Given McMahan's pedigree, I'm honestly not sure why so many turned up their noses at the concept. He's the guy ...

Yeah but I feel they are aware of Mariner bratty attitude. When I first heard about Mariner and her deal, I thought I'd wouldn't like her, but I honestly really enjoy her, I love the dynamic between her and Boimler, and while she does haze him, it's not mean spirited and she does care about him, I ...

I wouldn't say that. I mean, they broke the "nobody knows she's the captain's daughter" news and that's irreversible. They killed the Bajoran security officer. They don't change it often, but there seems to be actual like, consequences. 10 episodes and it's already shaking things up in a way that V...

It's pretty funny given how NOT straight laced our captains are, and how often Starfleet rewards them. I'm reminded of that one line where an admiral is admonishing Sisko for violating orders. "You pull a stunt like that again I'll court martial you, OR I'll promote you!" I'm sure in the US Navy th...

On that regard, I actually blame them all. The angry vocal fans that have been entitled since 1999, Abrams for his lack of imagination, and Disney for rushing the film instead of giving it the time it needed especially in light of Fisher's passing. The original draft by Trevororo (however you spell...

The Queen in the Voyager finale switched actresses and behaved differently, and I enjoy what that implied - the Borg aren't lead by the Queen, instead the Queen is a sort of centralized decision making process, but can be rejected by the collective as overly flawed. I like to think that after Endga...

The odd thing about the development of Michael's relationship with that family is that Spock was originally never going to appear. If you look at the first season, it's much more focused on her relationship with Sarek, with only one episode informing on his relationship with his son, as opposed to ...

So I’ve finally binge watched Star Trek Lower Decks, and I love this new series, absolute hilarious series and a great addition to the franchise, from start to finish I was laughing, and not just at the clear references and more subtle ones to the franchise, but the broader sense of humor that come ...
