  1. Reasons for Crusher to not tell Picard about their son: "It would impede your career" No it wouldn't. "It would be a burden to you" How do you know if you didn't ask. "I was emotionally distraught over the end of our affair" You were a grown-ass woman in her 50s, who'd already raised a Super Special Time Traveling Wonder son. Try harder. "We needed the DRAMA of pulling a surprise child out of our ass" There you go. This was bad. The Crusher/Picard love child is trite, Raffi being undercover while battling her addictions and conspiracy mania is dull and off-putting. Shaw being cowardly, obnoxious and incompetent is odd. Also, is he from the Mirror universe and that's why he won't turn on any fricking lights? Will Seven end up killing him and assuming command, and that's the next spin-off? Worf was cool though. So, that's what? About a minute of screen time that was interesting.
  2. The girl who played Ariana is the sister of the boy who got sacrificed a couple of episodes ago. The were both in the final season of The Expanse. I didn't recognize her at first under all the dirt. Boo on killing Hemmer so quickly. He was barely in any episodes. Unless the actor wanted to quit because the makeup was an issue or something like that, this is a bad look for the show.
  3. Am I understanding this right: the Eugenics War, Khan and his followers, were all caused (or at least the genetic experiments that created them) by Soong and his wacky experiments? If so, wow, that family is a menace. What's Q's role in all this? Is he going to give Soong something to make Kore stable, and thus create a race of supermen which all leads to Ricardo Montalban trying to take over the world? I can't help wondering if what's going on with Renee is a red herring. With Mad Scientist Soong and Agnes and The Borg Queen, there's just so many shenanigans at play it's hard to see what's the actual endgame.
  4. Yes, you did. I kinda figured something like this was going to happen when Sobell started asking all the questions about if Mark had ever seen his "dead" wife. How does it work though? Was she in on faking her own death, or has another severed personality been created and living as an outie? Do you remember when Sobell stole Mark's wife candle out of his basement and it turned up in his therapy session with Miss Casey? Sobell is a complete psycho creeper.
  5. It's basically heresy. It may be eyeroll inducing, but it teaches the importance and value of the individual, which is in direct opposition to the company attitude that everyone must be subservient to the GodKing Family of Keir. Ricken's book might start a revolution and he'll never know even about it.
  6. Dal is the same obnoxious boy character that has been afflicting cartoons for the last 30+ years. Selfish, self-centered, self-aggrandizing. That's what little boys like, I guess, and cartoons are aimed at little boys because little girls have cooties. Girl money has cooties as well; god forbid if they buy your merchandise. Cartoons have been cancelled because too many girls watch (Young Justice). Also, why woulld you land the starship instead of using the transporters? I can fanwank that the Janeway hologram has been damaged in some way and can't tell that this bunch are obviouslly not cadets, but no trasporters? Even the shuttlecraft should have one.
  7. As I understand it, they can only exit out of the door they came in unless someone on the outside uses the key to open a new portal. They need Gary to physically travel to New York and open a door for them to get there.
  8. Demerzel probably made some changes because identical clones is against her religion. Which she must have just got after 400 years of being cool with the clones. David Goyer straighwashed Leonardo Da Vinci, so don't expect any gay in that galaxy. They probably drown you for it.
  9. Salvor knew what the coin flip would be because she has some ability to see the future, just like her mother Gaal. The boy she saw in the library was her father Raysh. /speculation Also, did anyone else catch that Brother Dawn is left handed, unlike Day and Dusk? It was in the dinner scene, he reached for the glass with his left hand and hastily switched to his right. Brother Day and his Eyebrows of Disapproval gave him a death glare. I think some genetic differences have popped up in this clone and it's going to to be one more thing that upsets the galactic applecart.
  10. So Gaal actually is a seer? She knew there was something wrong with the space bridge before the attack, and then she knew something had happened to Hari. Maybe the clones are designed to die at 75, insuring an orderly transition. Every 25 years you get a new (same) emperor, who's always at his peak.
  11. I wish this was going to be on something besides the CW. I fear the characters will all be in their 20s obsessed with their hormones. Sheridan and Delenn will almost certainly be. If only Amazon Prime could have gotten hold of it; as they've proven with The Expanse, they know how to make intelligent science fiction.
  12. Batman won't, but Roy Kent will.
  13. I loved this! It felt so much like classic Leverage with Sophie's acting skills kicking in when a con is involved, and even a Doctor Who reference (Bill Potts, Breanna's alias, was a companion). Elliot was great, Breanna's speech was great and the bad guy was particularly vile. The best episode so far this season.
  14. Point One: I have no idea what's going on. Point Two: The actors playing Alina and Mal are so very terrible. We're talking British CW teen drama terrible. Point Three: At least the criminals seem interesting. I've never read (or heard about) the books before. Are they YA novels about a Special, Magic Girl who saves the world/universe with her Specialness and Magic while pining for her One True (boring) Love? If so, I'm a tiny bit too old for that sort of thing. Like 40 years or so. Anyway, I'm bored so I'll stick with it awhile longer and maybe it will pick up, or at least start making sense.
  15. Good for him. Never been a big Snyder fan but my respect for him has gone up.
  16. Just tuned in, and two things: 1. OMG, Joe is wearing a suit! I didn't even know he owned one. 2. I'm actually agreeing with him about calling the race. His rants are my rants. Surely, the apocalypse is upon us.
  17. I like it, I just don't fucking understand it. Anyway, I hope Father survived. He's my favorite.
  18. I love Tom Bergeron, and if I hadn't given up on DWTS 6 years ago, I'd quit over his firing. That being said, I think Wayne Brady would be the perfect host for the show if they fire Nick Cannon. (And yeah, they're going to fire Nick Cannon)
  19. Actually, this seems to be what they were going for in that movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0D4fHieW8o, Zari has so much more chemistry with John that it's not even funny. Well, it is funny since TPTB think Nate is all that and a bag of chips. You know, I don't like Ava, but they've been using her very effectively, like in this ep and the one with Marie Antoinette, so I end up enjoying her anyway. Stop manipulating me, show.
  20. She wanted another Teddy. She missed having somebody follow her around adoringly, no matter how many insane things she did. All those copies of herself just aren't the same. They'll never convince me that it was part of a convoluted plan that caused him to find her after she'd been shot.
  21. Here's a link to a video with Carole talking what's happening at BCR with coronavirus, about Tiger King, and at the end there's a little about her husband. It also gives a look at some of the cats, and what their enclosures look like. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4n8RbaUmWk
  22. I only got thru one episode of this because of the animal abuse and then I came here and found that the show was bashing Big Cat Rescue. Let me be clear, I don't know anything about Carole's personal life, and don't care, but I know how the cats are taken care of at BCR and it's nothing like those other two freak shows. Remember the scene where about a dozen tigers are in a single cage fighting over the food? That doesn't happen at BCR. Every cat has it's own fairly large enclosure unless they had been raised together before they came to the sanctuary. There's also a "vacation" area about as big as a football field, where the cats take turns spending two weeks running and playing. At BCR, the cats aren't led around on leashes and made to perform for visitors. No human touches them at all, unless they need a vet. Visitors can come and take a tour and watch the keepers feed the cats. If anyone's interested in what BCR is really all about, here's a link to their youtube channel. Judge for yourself: Big Cat Rescue Here's a link to one of my favorite stories about Hoover, a rescued circus tiger Hoover edited to fix links.
  23. I don't know how i feel about this. There were a lot of things I didn't like. I can accept that the Doctor has had more regenerations then we know about, but I don't like the fact that she's not Gallifreyan. I don't like that the Master wiped out the Time Lords because he doesn't feel special anymore. I don't like that Barristan Selmy had to deus ex machina his way in to finish the job because the Doctor wouldn't push the button because destroying a threat to every living thing in the universe would "turn her into the Master". I don't like the "fam". I'm sorry, I tried, but none of them have connected with me. I know people get tired of the Most Special Girls in All of Time and Space, but with the exception of SnowLeaf, they've all worked pretty well as companions. Well, I guess Brain of Morbius has been explained. I guess Tecteun is the Other, alongside Rassilon and Omega. My head hurts.
  24. Could this be the Series 6B theory? At the end of series 6 the Time Lords grab the second Doctor, send his companions back to their own time, and sentence him to forced regeneration and exile on Earth. We never see the regeneration onscreen. Series 7 starts with the third Doctor stumbling out of his TARDIS and passing out . The theory goes that maybe the Time Lords made Two work for them for awhile before regenerating him and dumping him on Earth. Isn't it possible that during this time, Two naturally regenerated into Doctor Ruth (I'm totally calling her that. I don't care), she escaped from them, they eventually found her, made her regenerate into Three, wiped his memory of the whole thing (Three had some of his memories erased), added another regeneration so no one would know what they'd been up to, and then exiled him on Earth? ETA: I see you guys have been thinking about 6B already. Anyway, I think it makes more sense than a variation of the Cartmel Masterplan, and it cause the least amount of disruption to established facts.
