Have you ever considered that the Prime Directive is not only not ethical, but also illogical, and perhaps morally indefensible?
- Comment on ‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Casts Sulu and Bones for Series Finale 17 hours ago:
I admittedly didn’t look very hard, but this is what I found.
Honestly, it’s such a word salad that I can’t possibly be mad about it, if only because I was unable to decipher what, exactly, he was talking about.

A time jump wouldn’t surprise me - IIRC, there were two three-month gaps in between episodes during season three.

Bonus Round: The Black Path Crisis of 3069
This might turn out to be more relevant than your average comic book:
Kelly: And the third reason for the Klingons and their inclusion in The Last Starship is connected to Starfleet Academy, so we can’t really talk about it except to say that we’re laying some exciting groundwork for that series.

I’ve gotta say, with the exception of DS9, “traditional” Trek was fairly allergic to character development. Growing and learning were rarely a priority, to put it mildly.
- Comment on ‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Wraps Production – Watch Anson Mount’s Final Set Tour 3 days ago:
I mean yeah, those days are gone and they’re not coming back.
I don’t think there was any “tradition” to it - it was just the dominant model at the time, and is now on its last legs.

Oh, that’s a rare treat - you don’t see full transcripts very often.

Define “traditional.”

I suppose it will be 46 when all is said and done.

- Comment on Paul Giamatti Ranks His Favorite Star Trek Shows and Talks Star Trek: Starfleet Academy 3 days ago:
He elaborates a bit that is a thin margin, but he loves the hell out of DS9.
He also describes the vibe of his SFA character in a fairly spoiler-free way.
The interviewer has seen the first episode and says it’s real good, and Giamatti says episode six is a highlight.

- Comment on Watch: ‘Star Trek: Starfleet Academy’ Cast Introduce Their Cadet Characters 4 days ago:
Casualties include injured, don’t they?
They do, but equating it to “fatalities” is a pretty common mistake. Unfortunate.
everyone’s mouths looked like they were moving kinda weird during the action shots.
I didn’t notice that, but it may have been a playback issue.
As far as the character introductions go, there’s not much to them. Genesis seems like an arrogant tryhard. SAM seems like a…cheerful Data-type? Jay-Den just seems like a Klingon. Darem seems like…another tryhard, but less arrogant than Genesis.
Caleb’s is kind of odd, as it features very little Caleb. I guess he seems kind of cocky, but it’s hard to say.

- Comment on Is it confirmed that The Doctor we'll be seeing in Academy is NOT the one from "Living Witness"? 2 weeks ago:
All interviews I’ve seen have said this is the mainstream Doctor.
Which doesn’t mean Picardo couldn’t do double-duty for an episode or three…
- Comment on Star Trek: Starfleet Academy | Exclusive Clip | Paramount+ (CCXP 2025) 2 weeks ago:
In all seriousness, from what I’ve seen Picardo say about the Doctor’s state of mind, I wonder if he abandoned any name(s) he’d chosen as he watched his loved ones grow old and die.

- Comment on I watch the first Star Trek Discovery episode, I didn't like it. 3 weeks ago:
Xenophobic military propaganda?
Okay, I’ll bite on this.
I’ll grant that it’s been a long time, but that seems like the opposite of the message of both that episode and the season as a whole…
- Comment on Get a First Look at One of WWE’s Biggest Stars in Star Trek Spin-Off ‘Starfleet Academy’ 3 weeks ago:
Wrestling’s an interesting…“sport” isn’t quite the right word, but I can’t think of what else to call it right now. I wouldn’t call myself a fan, but it was also pretty inescapable in the late 90s, so I’ve seen my fair share.
It’s absolutely a performance, but especially over the last couple of decades, the industry has shifted away from maintaining “kayfabe” and mostly just embraces the phoniness (though they still play it absolutely straight in the ring).
At the end of the day, it’s a very unique type of performance art that requires both athleticism and, for the most successful wrestlers, acting chops.
And yeah, there are definitely toxic aspects to it and its fan base.

A bunch of people in pyjamas flying around at faster-than-light speeds? Seems like a gimmick to me…
