Quote from: crazy canuck on October 27, 2023, 01:07:33 PMAs I recall the speech it was that there was no need for money and they had eliminated want.
They have unlimited resources thanks to the replicators and infinite energy supply while on planet.

This was a quite fun finale, though I thought the side plot for Tendi felt very forced in. We'll see how that plays out.

Some lovely references and jokes and in-jokea in there (won't spoil them) as well as tying back to some earlier episodes of the season.

Also, I love when Trek starts with "Previously on ..." "And now the conclusion" :wub:

I just don't see it.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

I finally got to the musical episode of Strange New Worlds. I like musicals, I like TV, I even like musical TV shows like My Crazy Ex-Girlfriend.

I don't see why regular TV shows need musical episodes.<_<

It was hilarious to start with, didn't know it was coming, but really slumps in the middle before ending funny again-the klingons :lol:.
Kind of typical of a lot of trek episodes really. Or hell. Mediocre films in general.

Strange new worlds really is shaping up to be a competitor for best trek series ever. It's not there yet. But another few good series and we will talk.

Why?

I thought it was entertaining. And I was very impressed with the singing ability of those actors. 

I would have enjoyed it less if it had been dubbed.  But that was them.  Very impressive.

First two episodes of Discovery's 5th and final season are out. It's all right. If you don't like Discovery it will not change your mind.

Always glad to hear Elias Toufexis's voice, though.
