I thought it worked a lot better in the second season when they had hair.McAvoy wrote: ↑Sat Dec 10, 2022 4:45 amThat wasn't an issue for me. It was their appearance that was jarring for me.

All of which runs counter to what they showed in the first season.
Funny thing if you look at Picard Season 2 with evil Federation you will find the skull of Martok in Picard's collection. Doesn't seem to fit the Klingon skull of TNG and later.
But yet we are getting the classic Klingon Worf but with white hair. So I guess someone realized that there is no way in hell that you could redo Worf's makeup without a real damned big backlash.
It's like redoing Nimoy Spock in The Motion Picture to give him Nosferatu look. Or just making him completely green.

Re: Lower Decks Season 3
I think it's pretty good as a comedy, but what is your favorite line that outright made you laugh? I can't think of "it provides a system of checks and balances" without cracking up.

It's not from s3 but the whole part of the ep where Tendi is trying to get Doctor T'ana to have her check up and T'ana starts acting like she is going to the vet.Fuzzy Necromancer wrote: ↑Sat Apr 29, 2023 1:22 am I think it's pretty good as a comedy, but what is your favorite line that outright made you laugh?

The entire intro to DS9 is peak Trek comedy.Fuzzy Necromancer wrote: ↑Sat Apr 29, 2023 1:22 am I think it's pretty good as a comedy, but what is your favorite line that outright made you laugh? I can't think of "it provides a system of checks and balances" without cracking up.

Re: Lower Decks Season 3
You know, I think SFDebris might have been a little harsh on Mariner with the Rick and Morty comparisons. Mariner on her worst day is still leagues better than Rick on his best.

Mariner has not made a bestiality cannibalism incest theme park yet, no.
