#StarTrekDiscovery (2/2) only average from a storytelling standpoint (the acting remained excellent). A solid 2-part finale, though. Average score (S1E1-12, S2): 4.04/5; (the rest): 3.42/5.
And now, let the "craft" spinoff series theorizing commence! https://t.co/R7U3AHZ5VU
#StarTrekDiscovery (1/2) I loved the uniqueness of the show at the start, but then they retconned the entire premise at the end of S1 (viewers probably didn't think it was "Trek" enough). And although I'd rank S2 as one of the 3 ST seasons ever, it was https://t.co/R7U3AHZ5VU
Despite me enjoying seasons 1 & 2 (more science and exploration than politics) more than 3 & 4 (WAY more politics than exploration), I actually scored each of the last two seasons higher then the first two, which really surprised me. #ForAllMankind https://t.co/nQkNWYAeok
I thought they'd just do a "placeholder" season post-strike & save the S6 plan for S7, but the last 3 eps make me believe they stuck with the orig story & dispensed with the usual slow-burn format—the reveals have been unnaturally swift. #TheRookie https://t.co/cy8lzWaZWs
Across the years and all the series, Star Trek is often best when it deals with exploration—of the human psyche. This is a prime example. #StrangeNewWorlds https://t.co/dUN0YsD7xl
Not really sure why the KGB thing would be a surprise; we already knew about that from the phone-number card she was given. #ForAllMankind https://t.co/gCeF62easD
The final scene was particularly inspired. (Viewers who'd never seen STLD must've thought they'd drank too much Romulan ale before the show. Even *I* was about half a minute away from searching "Paramount+ video file splicing error.") #StrangeNewWorlds https://t.co/uEp2SbrzuP
Take a crew from Now, mix in cartoons from Later, add a dash of direction from ...slightly-less-Later, and you get one of the most unique (and possibly best) episodes in franchise history. "TOS..." 😉 #LowerDecks#Enterprise#TNG#TOS#StrangeNewWorlds https://t.co/uEp2SbrzuP
