Have you ever considered that the Prime Directive is not only not ethical, but also illogical, and perhaps morally indefensible?

I don’t think anything he’s talking about in the video is particularly unique to the way TV production was 30 years ago.

Kate Mulgrew has a very unique confidence about her in the role, it’s a lot of fun.

I dunno, for all the noise around the show, the response from people who are actually watching the thing seems pretty darned positive. Time will tell.

- Comment on Interview: George Hawkins On How ‘Moana’ Influenced Khionian Culture And Why Darem “Wears A Mask” 2 days ago:
There was a beautiful expression that Alex [Kurtzman] gave me. Being in his Khionians form is like exhaling. So to be in his skin is to breathe. And this wedding does not feel like a place where Darem can breathe. I think this is a pinnacle point of something that Darem had actually been running away from his whole life. He says at the start of the episode, “I thought I had more time.” I thought I could go and explore an adventure for a few years and then come back to my responsibilities. For me, how I made sense of it was Darem can’t breathe here. This is not a free place for Darem to be.
That’s…a very thoughtful way to address what looked to be like a budget-saving measure.

Yeah, I exaggerate, but I think the message was definitely that it’s okay to embrace your inner cockiness, which I think is an untraditional (but interesting!) message.

I watched the first few as a curiosity, but checked out after that.
Does anyone have kids in the target demographic that have seen it?

Well, that was certainly a low-stakes palate cleanser after last week’s more intense episode. Probably a little too low-stakes for my liking.
They seemed intent on inverting common tropes in this one:
The “arranged marriage” storyline didn’t play out in a way that we’ve really seen before.
Similarly, Darem’s overall arc of “I need to stop being such a people-pleaser so I can be my more authentic, dickish self” is…a twist.
Caleb and Genesis put any “will they/won’t they” plotlines to rest (though I suppose they could revisit it).
And Genesis’ deep, dark secret turned out to be…not that deep. As much as I appreciate the inversion and that she didn’t turn out to be a Species 10-C spy or something, I feel like we still don’t know enough about Genesis. We’re going to have to meet her dad to really get to the bottom of her character, I think.

I struggle to think of things to say about “Nemesis”, one way or the other.
I do like the Remans. We need more Remans in our lives.

I haven’t done a deep dive into the reviews, but it looks like it’s going to be one of those “fine, if you’re into that sort of thing” games.

It’s interesting that they know that, since it’s not in the official release - I suppose they may have seen the screener already.
- Comment on New Star Trek: Starfleet Academy Episode 107 Photos — “Ko’Zeine” 1 week ago:
As our cadets return home for their first school holiday, they must choose between what their families expect of them and their own dreams for the future — including an aspiring captain who’s secretly willing to risk everything to re-write her own past, and an aristocratic cadet called to serve his planet way before he’s ready.
So, definitely a Darem episode, and maybe Genesis as well?
I can’t help but wonder what Caleb’s going to do for a “home for the holidays” episode. Staying at the school is possible, but it would be interesting to see him connect with B’Avi’s family.
