Re: MAND S3: Chapter 22: Guns for Hire
Quoth Jammer: "The entire Mandalorian 'Creed' and culture is pretty much collapsing like a house of cards. These people will follow anyone who has the best story of that particular day. None of this would-be world building has an ounce of conviction, because it's all about technicalities rather than the meaning behind it, whatever that might've actually been."
You've just described every religion ever. What you see as a bug, I see as a feature. Of course it's nonsense, but no more nonsense than covering your head at all times or only eating certain foods or never touching alcohol or participating in ritual cannibalism every week.

Re: DSC S3: The Sanctuary
It's not at all fair to say that Kwejian looks like a Vancouver forest, because Discovery films in Toronto. So it totally looks like a Toronto forest, dangit!
(Then again, all Canadian forests look alike, and they all look like alien planets, thanks to television.....)

Re: DSC S2: The Red Angel
Airiam wasn't an important character to the viewers, but she was an important character to the other characters, and the funeral reflected that, as it damn well should have. I am so incredibly sick and tired of fictional characters' reactions to a person's death depending entirely upon the billing of the actor playing the dead person. To us as viewers, she's an extra, but to everyone on Discovery, she's a valued crewmate who died tragically, and she abso-damn-lutely deserves a big-ass funeral.

Re: TNG S6: Chain of Command, Part II
In fact, "Chain of Command" was intended to be more of a lead-in to DS9, insofar as the Ferengi middleman in Part 1 was supposed to be Quark on the Cardassian station Terok Nor, but because they weren't premiering DS9 until a month after this one aired, they changed it to a generic Ferengi. The scene was filmed on DS9's replimat set.
