>>118078919>The ship appreciation scene would have been way funnier if the characters started orgasming and jacking off or something wild like that.Anon, as somebody who just watched the episode in absolute glee, and came here specifically to talk about how good it was, because it didn't go too over the top with retarded "mature" humor, and how all the references to past treks were perfectly integrated, maintaining an appropriate balance of being understandable for the audience while also not being "hey, remember star trek?!" in your face, I just wanted to tell you:
You are a complete fucking idiot. Like jesus fucking christ. What are you, fucking 12?
>>118078111This was the single best episode of the series so far, and the only one I can confidently call Good. From the moment Mariner was told to go to a therapist I was literally counting seconds until the show referenced Councillor Troi out of nowhere, and you know what? It didn't. It didn't do it once. All the references were either diagetically fitting (orion slavers, pah wraiths in hell) or visual/structural (admiring ship, the captain giving a Cool Trailer Line before warping) and didn't take me out of the episode.
We had pretty decent character development, and some really fun humor.
I am genuinely hyped for the next episode, for the first time since the series started.
