Of course I do, and I love DS9 so I’m excited for this, but also, I’m sure lots of other interesting stuff also happened in the intervening 800 years.

My impression is that the S3 Borg Collective/queen are the same ones from First Contact and Voyager. AFAICT the queen can exist in different bodies, which is why she was sometimes played by Alice Krige (in First Contact, “Endgame” and Picard) and sometimes Susanna Thompson (other Voyager eps). My impression for why she’s in such bad shape in Picard S3 is that it’s a direct result of what Janeway/future Janeway did in “Endgame”. So after Picard is over, I believe that original prime-timeline collective is extinct (barring any time travel shenanigans ofc), but the gentler kinder collective (which is led by the merger of Annie Wersching’s alternate timeline queen and Dr. Jurati) may very well still be around in the 32nd century.

The new collective is still at that portal or whatever, and we’re never going to find out what it is or ever see that collective again because the writers want us all to forget Picard S2 ever happened.

Like, the “Wall of Heroes” or whatever it’s called really shouldn’t be 90% people we’ve heard of before.

I love 90s Trek as much as anyone, but does anyone in the 32nd century ever stop and wonder why so much of the history anyone ever cares about occurred in the relatively short (and ancient by then) timespans of 2256–2293 and 2364–2379?

I think almost all Trekkies would agree that there are a lot of TOS episodes that are just plain bad. It is also very much a product of its time both in terms of production and its treatment of gender and race (although in many ways it was very much ahead of its time in both those areas). If you can’t get into it, don’t feel bad about it, and don’t feel like you have to to be a Trekkie. IMO there are definitely some gems in there and in the animated series, but I think anyone who likes any of the many ST series has the right to call themselves a Trekkie.

He’s been near the top of my family’s wishlist for a while, so I really hope they can make it work

I was so excited to hear Goldsmith’s Klingon theme. Love whenever they come back to it.

Theorizing that one could time-travel within his own lifetime, Dr. Leo Sturbgetter stepped into the Quantum Leap accelerator… and vanished. He awoke to find himself trapped in the past, facing cattle that were not his own, and driven by an unknown force to detangle them for the better. His only guide on this journey is Al, an observer from his own time, who appears in the form of a hologram that only Leo can see and hear. And so Dr. Sturbgetter finds himself leaping from pasture to pasture, striving to detangle what once became tangled, and hoping each time that his next leap will be the leap home.

This is expertly written. It reads exactly like you’d expect a story about archaeological discoveries to.

FWIW, I’ve always had trouble telling apart amber, golden, and jade potions, so if I have to, I’ll learn to live with it.

I like most of the new art, but as a colorblind person, the new scroll and runestone art is a lot harder to differentiate (the stones in particular basically all look identical to me). Maybe there could be an option to keep the old-style art if preferred?

Can’t wait for this lineup!

Do you still just tap on the space to pick the item up, or do you need to do something special?

Good that they’re offering this, but it’s still prohibitively expensive if you don’t have an academic department that can cover the registration fee.

I had really hoped that Sanjeev could have pulled off an episode win, but this episode was truly a delight.

We need PFT as a contestant!

Khan mentioned it was 15 years after being marooned on Ceti Alpha V, but this is clearly 18 year difference.

Maybe it’s Ceti Alpha V years rather than Earth years.

Haven’t watched TWOK in a little while, but didn’t Khan accuse Kirk of knowing Ceti Alpha VI was going to be destroyed? Now it looks like either he was lying then, or the grief from whatever’s going to happen in the final episode has driven him mad.

Yeah, I am really appreciating the new complexity to McGivers’ character in this series.

I think the flour superpower one would have been better if the guys hadn’t all snagged their own ducks. Having to deal with something someone else came up with is so much more entertaining.
