For a few dilithium crystals more: Star Trek: Discovery “Far from Home”

Previously: The previouslies this week are basically a one-minute cut of last season’s finale, which I suppose was done to explain why the whole crew of Discovery decided to go into the far future with Michael Burnham. Also, we get…

Star Trek: Lower Decks “No Small Parts”

Previously on Star Trek: Lower Decks: Boimler found out that Mariner was Captain Fletcher’s daughter, a secret that both had kept under lock and key. This brings the show dangerously close to having a consequential plot development, and the…

Star Trek: Lower Decks “Veritas”

This week’s cold open is a dang hot one! The setting: K’Tuevon Prime. Our four intrepid lower decks ensigns are pushed inside a circular stone dungeon in a creepy tower. Jagged metal barriers retract from the door frame, preventing them…

Star Trek: Lower Decks “Much Ado About Boimler”

This week’s episode of Star Drek: Lower Blecchs (RIP MAD magazine) is entitled “Much Ado About Boimler”, yet doesn’t actually have much ado about Boimler at all. The cold open features Tendi excitedly showing the other lower decks ensigns her…

Star Trek: Lower Decks “Terminal Provocations”

This week on Star Trek: Lower Decks: The show still hasn’t decided whether or not it has a cold open, nor what should go in it. Last week didn’t have one. This week does, but wastes it on a…

Star Trek: Lower Decks “Cupid’s Errant Arrow”

Our episode gets off to an uninspired start when Ensign Boimler narrates his personal log about an interaction he wasn’t there to see and has no reason to write in his log about. The Cerritos is in the Mixtus system,…

Star Trek: Lower Decks “Envoys”

In today’s cold open, we trot out a well-worn Star Trek trope of a glowing ball of energy invading the ship, much like the alien that impregnated Troi in the Next Generation episode “The Child”. Mariner and Tendi are wheeling…

Star Trek: Lower Decks “Second Contact”

Before we’d gotten too far into the fabulous 21st century, it became evident that the kind of television the Star Trek franchise produced wasn’t going to be relevant for very much longer. New technologies such as DVR and streaming, new…
