Re: Lower Decks Season 4
Okay I've had some issues with the last couple of episodes, but that was absolutely amazing!

Re: Low Key Season 2
I do like how Locarno is now a villain and not the repentent man he was in TNG. That would have shown growth and not someone who was trying to assemble his own League of Evil.

Re: Low Key Season 2
I dunno, we know basically nothing about Locarno apart from he's going around blasting shit, and apparently he wants to bring Mariner along. Given that Mariner is now friends with the Lower Decks (the TNG episode) character who was killed by the Cardies, it does make sense they knew each other...clearspira wrote: ↑Fri Oct 27, 2023 4:29 pm I do like how Locarno is now a villain and not the repentent man he was in TNG.

Re: Lower Decks Season 4
I loved this episode. The connection to TNG's Lower Decks was beautifully done and Mariner's backstory reveal felt earned. Also the puppet gag made me laugh.
What I'm really excited about now is wondering what Locarno's endgame is. What is he trying to accomplish? Why did he do this?

I did enjoy the episode because now we are seeing growth with Mariner too now. This whole season seems to be about Mariner moving on from her self destructive ways.Fuzzy Necromancer wrote: ↑Fri Oct 27, 2023 10:49 pm I loved this episode.

Also go figure that Mariner knew about that Bajoran Ensign who Locarno knew is also the episode named Lower Decks. Abit on the nose.
I think she knows Locarno and I am willing to bet she went to the Academy together. Probably knew Wesley too
I got nothing to say here.

Re: Lower Decks Season 4
I never thought I'd see the actual show acknowledge the whole "signed up to do botany but went through all the trauma of a soldier on the front line" tragedy of Star Fleet. Chuck's been pointing it out for a decade or so but the actual franchise always danced around it.
...for space is wide, and good friends are too few.
Re: Lower Decks Season 4
Boimler did have some comments on that when he was on the Titan, though at the time it felt more like addressing the difference between the TNG era and the following shows compared to Discovery, so this was way better.hammerofglass wrote: ↑Sat Oct 28, 2023 8:54 am I never thought I'd see the actual show acknowledge the whole "signed up to do botany but went through all the trauma of a soldier on the front line" tragedy of Star Fleet.
