Another issue with Klingons singing is that Klingons are traditionalists. It's not just singing, it's singing the "approved" songs in the "proper" way. This musical field was making them improvise, which must have felt like an attack on their culture (which Klingons have always been defensive...

Honestly, I feel like it would've worked better with a random god-like alien behind it all, even if that particular plot mechanism has been done to death in other musical episodes (Buffy, The Flash, and sort of in The Brave and the Bold). I mean, it's Star Trek; god-like aliens putting the crew...

I just got that yesterday (I was at Walmart for unrelated stuff). He's a surprisingly great little toy once you get past the brown wheels and lack of paint. Alt-mode is decent (though there are a few gaps and things that have to be massaged just right to get into position). Thinking of calling...

He's only been referred to in credits as "the General," but yeah, given the context it'd make the most dramatic sense for him to be Sam Lane.

I think part of the problem is that aside from a couple of cases (Sam and Cade) we don't really get continuing human characters, so we A) don't really get enough time for coherent character development, B) have to re-hash the "introduction to Transformers" theme every damn time, and C) can't...

Yeah, there's a distinction between "holo-drivers" who can sit in a driver's seat and deliver dialogue and full holomatter avatars who can walk around and interact with physical objects. As for the VFX budget-per-character, I'm curious as to how that breaks down in terms of designing...

Mainly in Viren's vision (the Red Room with the zigzag floors, Opeli as the Log Lady, the homunculus' little dance, and the easy chairs that appeared in the credits sketches), but I'm also counting the coffee and donuts in Katolis.

There were also several Twin Peaks homages in the second episode.

"Discipline Centers"

This calls for some music.

Another one expecting a movie announcement. Congrats, Rhinox.

Back in November.

Andorians also marry in groups of four (established in canon), which the novels have expanded to suggest that they actually have four sexes (zhen and shen look feminine, and chan and thaan look masculine). A lot of species in Star Trek have "abilities" that are more based on their cultural...

Big deal, so's everything. Streaming is the death of long-form entertainment.

The Peacock series is way better than it has any right to be; it succeeds in both celebrating and deconstructing the original, by accepting that a lot of the stuff we laughed at in the 80s just isn't funny. It has the confidence to take what the original show held up as the ideal teen trickster...

Yikes. Glad you're okay.

Yeah, Section 31 as it appeared in Berman-era Trek is tolerable; a secretive conspiracy that may or may not be anything more than a handful of rogue operatives (nothing any S31 agent says about how well-staffed and equipped they are can be trusted --until Enterprise included them, people were...

Not a Transformer, but I still have this little guy.
