Re: DSC S3: The Sanctuary
Getting to this late.
2 stars is pretty harsh IMO. I'm enjoying the classic Federation tenets getting flexed by a crew we get more endeared to week by week. Frakes did good work here.
And Kwejian is stunning! Even on a 6 year OLED it was a treat!

Re: DSC S2: Perpetual Infinity
Even later here! I feel like I'm the only one who would be sad to see Ash depart. I know he is the personification of season 1 but well, is Michael really going to play chess instead of see to how Ash is? He's on an escape pod after getting shanked but it's just hanging!

Re: DSC S2: If Memory Serves
The first Disco episode to make me laugh out loud and later on, cry. I was hoping Jammer have it at least 3.5 and I wasn't disappointed!

Re: DSC S1: Into the Forest I Go
Nice review. I felt they dropped enough clues for you to tell that Lorca deliberately sabotaged Stammets. With the ship of the dead destroyed and Admiral Cornell back to take his command away, he would be motivated not to go back.
4 stars for me.

Re: ENT S4: These Are the Voyages...
Why is the name Federation being tip toed around? Why the need to call it an Alliance? Its as if they don't have the licence to use "United Federation of Planets"?? Its like the show has been pregnant for 4 seasons and doesn't want to give birth just yet. Well goddammit now you're cancelled. Congrats.

Re: ENT S4: Terra Prime
Acting wise I think Billingsley gave a masterclass.
Anthony Montgomery....I mean Jesus he had 5 years and never got less wooden.

Re: ENT S4: Demons
When Josiah was making that speech in the mines, I was studying Trips facial expressions closely because here is a guy who did lose his sister in that Xindi attack. Maybe he had about 5% empathy with Terra Prime.
But that giant frickin space laser....sure let's leave it without any security. No-one will want to use it in anger. Would it have been that much effort to have some takeover action?

Re: ENT S4: In a Mirror, Darkly, Part II
Part one was like a sugary dessert and made me smile.
Part two was the head and toothache from the excess.
There are no words to convey my disappointment that mirror and normal crews didn't collide.

Re: ENT S4: Bound
I'd like to see Kelby end up on the Columbia. It's not like things could go back to normal with Trip after a fully fledged fist fight.

Re: ENT S4: Divergence
The opening stunt was hard to watch. Even for a science fiction show. We've been told all this time in Trek that you can't survive at warp speed without inertial dampeners.
And how does Colombia catch up with Enterprise anyway? They have the same engine and the latter is going at max.
Bad writing by the Reeves-Stevens.

Re: ENT S4: Observer Effect
Good acting all around, especially Organian Travis. He came alive to a greater degree than default Travis /facepalm

Re: ENT S4: Daedalus
1 star. Im going to pretend it didn't happen. The Temporal Agents should erased it from existence.
Archer's first duty is the protection of his ship and crew and this piece of shit episode said nah to that.
Also we've been told Henry Archer died when Jon was 12 and wasn't mentally with it from after he was 10 so when was flight training again?

Re: ENT S3: Countdown
The lack of character continuity bothered me a lot with the MACOs. How are we supposed to care about them when the actors dip in and out like Cole and Chang?
And why would Reed only take 3 volunteers? Okay it's to prove a point but cmon man, take all of them! It's the sphere!

Re: ENT S3: Stratagem
A great episode.
Yet again, I've got Senator Vreenak in my ear: "It's a faaaaake!"

Re: ENT S3: Carpenter Street
This episode was diabolical because it presented a huge elephant in the room.
If it's the case the Xindi can just take themselves into our past, why don't they just murder us in an easier time?

Re: ENT S3: North Star
I laughed out loud when Archer went to jail again!
Also a few minutes in it was predictable Travis wouldn't be in this episode either, at least on the ground.
I wonder if what drove progress was Earth's resources like oil and gold which are absent here, hence the frozen in time effect. But yeah they could have at least moved the needle to some degree.

Re: ENT S3: Twilight
4 stars, loved this episode. I really liked the subtle Easter egg of the Andorian Shran gifting shields to the future Enterprise.
As for Travis, honestly at this point why don't the writers just kill him in the real timeline?

Re: ENT S3: Rajiin
Things that are annoying in this episode:
The action sequences showing the humans look like amateurs,
The fish Xindi,
TPol and Trip,
Archer,
Reed's over the top facial acting when a merchant, acted like an effing MERCHANT
Yeah this was annoying throughout.

Re: ENT S2: First Flight
What I got from this was that in the 2 years since the launch of NX01, NX02 and presumably its captain, are still stuck waiting on Earth for the green light?
I enjoyed this episode though. Carradine's a good actor. Not surprising since he's the brother of Bill from Kill Bill.

Re: ENT S2: The Breach
The Phlox stuff was excellent but goddammit the cave was trash. If they are sliding for what seems like 20 minutes, they can't have it both ways and then rely on Travis keeping them secure after an incident that should by rights take his leg off. And yeah why haven't there been any climbing advances since 200+ years

Re: ENT S2: Singularity
Missed an opportunity for Travis to be in the ship's gym working on his one rep max, and searching for progressively heavier stuff while everyone around him lose their shit.

Re: DSC S3: That Hope Is You, Part 2
You know what, it's been a good run, but I kind of feel like I was just made to look like a fool.
I'm certain I was responding with the same exact language I read.
I'm not going to sit here wondering if I was hallucinating or if I'm being gaslit. That was a direct quote.
I know the intent wasn't malicious, but the result is the same. I look unhinged, rude and even more "off topic" instead of replying in a dialectical yet conciliatory manner.
It's just a small thing in the grand scheme and I'm just one admittedly VERY eccentric guy , but for whatever reason, I'm sometimes triggered by odd peccadilloes. Chief among them: when anyone edits their post so a respondee (especially me) looks worse than they would in the original context.
Then again, I brought it on myself for going off topic, I guess. This isn't my playpen, right?
Then why do I feel like I was just ever-so- slightly clowned?
My only response is this (forgive the Trek paraphrase): You won the conversation and all it cost you was one user and your self-respect.
It is unfortunate, but I have too much baggage to deal with this sort of situation, unintended it may be. This is just a little too much like interacting with my mother for my taste. so I will bow out gracefully.
I wish everyone well, Jammer included.
