ENT 4x23 Archer vs Shran fight 👌

Gul Dukat

Maybe you drew too fast shot yourself in the foot?

Gul Dukat is arguably the most wellformed villain in ST canon. He is a delusional maniac pursuing a twisted vision of greatness. He even works alongside our heroes for a time!

Can I offer you an Armus instead?

I have 0 desire to ever rewatch a single episode

If there’s one thing I’d like to peek behind the curtain to see, it’s the streaming metrics for each trek.

My gut instinct is that almost nobody wants to rewatch it unless it is their own favorite trek. I know I don’t.

Watching the two on the left go from hardnosed atheist commandos to saying “Praise Sol” with conviction, what a wild fucking trip of a show.

Buffer time! It’s the episode I feel where LD comes into its own.

TIL the episode is actually called Temporal Edict and “Buffer Time” is a lower decks board game they made based on the episode.

Every time

If “ish bin ein Berliner” translates as “I am a jelly donut” (favorite anecdote of mein lehrer)

Then does “ich bin ein amerikaner” translate as “I am a loaf of sliced bread”?

Edit: thanks fam 🤙

Amerikaner is a cookie but not a chocolate chip cookie, never ever would have guessed 🤣

That feeling when someone makes a really good point and makes me wonder if S3 was not as good as I thought it was.

That was an interesting read.

I wish someone would’ve asked her about Remember Me, one of my favorite episodes and one of the few Dr Crusher episodes.

a season that veered largely in quality from one episode to the next, including a particularly notable nosedive in its back half

I greatly enjoyed this season (no really, the good ones are so good), but I must agree here about the nose dive.

That documentary episode is probably my least favorite Star Trek episode of all time.

And that finale? Too much unwelcome Mass Effect 3 energy in this ending for me to enjoy.

Ley lines. Hey, they’re real!

Absolutely my least favorite treknobabble of all time.

When we fix the irregular verb sing we will create a new heteronym between singed-as-past-of-sing and singed-as-past-of-singe 🫠

How does three sets of DNA in her - Gorn, Human and Illyrian - translate to having all the abilities of all races that have faced evil?

That bit right there is like a glob of glue along the seam where this Beholder plot was glued to the gorn cliffhanger.

Is any of this Beholder stuff foreshadowed before Batel fights Gamble the first time? I try to be a careful watcher, but it came outta left field for me.

Wish they would have leaned harder into reimagining Inner Light and less into boring chosen-one-stuff.

Wow, I guess this is like UK schoolhouse rock? Not bad

Oh I’m in good company, this is my kinda rant 🤙

cut and tr are like the wonder twins of text munging

Form of truncated whitespace! Shape of single whitespace! 😂

How can you be so close to right about þis and still be wrong?

Honest answer: I’m sloppy on mobile

Better answer:

sort | uniq -c has entered the chat 🤣

Also every Ben Stiller romcom (and most his other movies too). Dude’s got a hangup on cute blondes, we get it already.

I finally got a chance to watch it and I thought it was great.

An overdue homage to both Enemy Mine and The Arena, feels like they really cooked with this one 🔥

I love the ending with Ortegas’ epiphany that her new reality is that one of her friends killed one of her other friends.

Other than that bizarre found-footage episode, this entire season has been fire. Somehow they’ve managed to give us more of the crew in 3 seasons than disco ever did, and I’m loving it.

I have such high hopes for the new academy show after what I’ve seen in S3, bring on the next trek golden age!

Me when my 13yo daughter shows me how she can draw on her ipad on her mint box because she found, downloaded, and stood up weylus all by herself.
