I was in a bad place yesterday, I apologize. I will endeavor to keep my emotions in check. I needed a way to vent some negative energy.

Everyone enjoy. I just feel like someone pissed on my Cheerios.

The second season redeemed the series somewhat but they only did it by abandoning their nonsense and bullshit, and injecting some old school Trek with Pike and crew.



Woke Trek isn't laughable, stupid garbage simply because gender/ethnicity/sex are emphasized. Woke Trek is garbage because they are used in place of plot, theme, and character development.

The sad part is we can have badass female characters without having this woke shit shoved down our throats.

Remember these ladies?

Just saw this on YouTube - it theorizes that the previously unmentioned son of Dr. Soong is, in fact, Lor.

It does make sense.

I still don't understand how that applies to this show? Not sure what is "woke" about Picard?

Yes, I suggested as much last week. If it isn't, it's pretty disappointing on the part of the writers and contrary to expectations. Certainly makes a lot more sense for it to be Lore than for Soong to have had a human son nobody knew about until now.

Man this is just downright cringeworthy more often than not. From last episode:

JL: Be sure to let me know when the ship's systems are up and running.

Raffi: Nahhh, I figured I'd keep you guessing.

Sadly, it wouldn't be the first time.

Nothing at all. I was replying to comments regarding Burnham.

unlurking 03-23-2020 05:15 PM

Ahh, yeah. Burnham has to be the worst character of these new series.

notorious 03-23-2020 05:19 PM

**** it. Just make it so that Lore downloaded Data's "soul/personality" back in the day and have some crazy plot that makes Lore into Data.

The only character I really liked in the first season was Lorca. Everybody else was varying degrees of meh. Except for Stamets. I absolutely loathe that guy.

candyman 03-23-2020 05:36 PM

Does anyone else think the android-looking version of Isa Briones/Soji (Sutra) is a lot sexier than Isa Briones/Soji?

I was rooting for the Klingons, even though I hated them just as much.

Good news/bad news with the finale, I'd say.

The bad news is that the first half was pretty meh. But the way they set the commercials, it looked like the second half could be something big. And it was.

I won't give any spoilers away, but it was both very predictable and very well done.

Expect some dust in your eyes for the last 15 minutes.
