The only marriage they had was during the "Time Keeps on Slipping" episode with the Globetrotters, but they were divorced shortly thereafter in the next scene. Otherwise, I don't recall a proper marriage or anything that would signify that status.

Go to the instance main site via web browser (ex: lemmy.world). Don't need to sign in. Scroll to the very bottom of the page. You should see Instance under the UI and Lemmy version. Click on that. It will show you what that instance is federated with and if you scroll to the bottom you can see the ones that are defederated. To easily find your instance do the "find" option in your browser to search directly.

I love how it was a nod to Black Mirror

I didn't realize Frakes directed two of the Orville episodes, but makes a lot of sense. He did an amazing job bringing the charm of The Orville into this episode. RE: the intro....YES!!! I was about to skip it, but so happy I watched it. I loved the space-monster sucking on the ship! It is my favorite part of the LD intro, so happy to see it here.

Definitely one of the most enjoyable episodes of any modern Star Trek episodes if not the best. Love the calls back to the other shows and Star Trek history. I like how the Lower Decks actors played their human characters just as skillfully as they voice them. I loved their connections with the SNW crew. Just beautifully well written. Feels like that it made up for what seemed to be lacking in the previous episode.

Ooooh. I get it. Well IMO the most famous character had to be Queen Elizabeth :)

I agree with you on multiple accounts. Seems like the writing was lacking. In addition to not securing the hallucinating guy, they also made no formal announcement to security or to warn others about his dangerous presence. You would think with such a huge crew complement that there would be more people walking the halls in the scenes when they were trying to apprehend him. Or at least folks trying to figure out why it is dark, etc.

Also agree with the lack of direction on Carol Kane's character. In fact, the way they included Hemmer as a hallucination, in the pre-recorded video, as well as in commentary by Una and Pelia, it almost seemed as if they were apologizing to the audience for getting rid of the Hemmer character. I am unsure of the reasoning behind it, but I thought he was a great character and wish they hadn't killed him off.

So far this is the first episode that kind of disappointed me in the new series. It almost felt like it was filler to create the establishment of relationships between Kirk and the rest of the Enterprise crew.

Ok y'all. I'm finally caught up with the season. Definitely the best episode so far in the season. The dual soul, one body thing soooo messed up but hilarious. Especially the last scene.

[–] Awa 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Honestly, I don't remember any "famous" actors appearing in the old episodes. In the new Amazon series, Catherine O'Hara was in one episode. That's a good question. I know I am overdue for a rewatch.

Just came across this community. KITH is a classic. One of my favorite TV shows of all time. Thanks for hosting this community.

Greetings fellow Earthicans. As we had our first inappropriate post yesterday and the storms in my area took my power out for most of the day, I realized it would be nice to recruit a few good individuals willing to keep this community troll-free and help review comments/posts regularly. Please let me know if you have interest in doing so. Thanks!

Edit: going to go with this for now. Thanks to all. Will adjust as needed.

While there are so many actors and pop-culture icons who added to the beauty of this show, being a huge Star Trek geek, I have to go with the cast that participated in the episode Where No Fan Has Gone Before

Honorable mention to Bea Arthur as Femputer.

 

I don't know about you all, but I consider myself to belong in the GenX population. Most of my younger coworkers have maybe heard about Futurama but have never seen it. So many of the references and jokes relate to older pop culture. I am hoping some of the new episodes will be relatable to GenZ and beyond. What are your thoughts?

 

For me, I would have to say Minx fom the episode 2-D Blacktop. https://theinfosphere.org/Minx

I just feel her backstory is annoying and way too drawn out. It really doesn't add anything to the episode just detracts from the enjoyment for me.

Personally I would like to use the electronium hat on my dogs to see what they really think... Maybe 🤔
