Good CGI/LED walls blend in. If you notice it, it breaks the 4th wall a bit. Battlestar Galactica 2004 had CGI and it worked so well and looks very believable.

Edit: I just realized that the episode was written by Kathryn Lyn who also wrote one of Lower Decks’ funniest episodes, “wej Duj”. She seems to become Star Trek’s go-to gal for comedy.

Makes perfect sense when you realize that T'Lyn (named after her) was another passive aggressive Vulcan that provides comic relief was introduced in "wej Duj".

Regarding the LED wall, yeah, it was more obvious here. It felt like they were entering one of those gimmicky project-Van-Gogh-art-on-a-warehouse-wall tourist traps.

The episode where Uhura and Hemmer were trapped in the engine room was another one that stood out.

Make sure to select both.

All the jokes aside, the music right before Spock and Chapel kiss was beautiful.

Y'all ready to buy that Star Trek beanie at the next Trek convention? Makes for easy cosplay, especially if you have human ears.

Make sure to set your language settings to both UNDETERMINED and ENGLISH. It's some Lemmy bug.

Nice catch. Also, T'Lyn was introduced in "wej Duj" and was named of writer Kathryn Lyn. Seems like Lyn has a knack for Vulcans. According to Memory Alpha, she's a big Star Trek fan and cosplayed at conventions.

When Pike was serving that tray of food only to make a 90 degree turn, lol

Hehe, yeah, same here. My favorite one was the "What the F---" from Spock from the teaser.

I mean, what else could they promote instead? Those are the only shows still in production or have entire unreleased seasons.

I assume you know the Nitpicker's Guide to [...] Trekkers book series? It was such a fun book series from the 1990s. I even submitted my own nitpicks and Phil send me a membership card. Fun times.
