  Look. I have enjoyed the last season. But the show has never escaped its fatal flaw of being in its own way. The finale of season 4 was great Trek, and this season has been good.

  But it took how many months of retooling to give us the last season? And I appreciate finding a stride and having the show cancelled (as someone who will defend ENT constantly for this I’ll hear it all) but this isn’t the same case. They tried so many ways to make DIS work and it has hit and missed in different ways, but tying it to one story over the course of a whole season and making that the glue, and not allowing for other characters to be established, is still there. I still have no idea who the majority of the bridge crew are, and I feel there are characters that are overused and others that are criminally underused (can we just get a Reno spinoff please?)

  This is a swan song, but personally I’m glad it gets to end on a high note. But let’s see it for what it has been.

  What they need to do is take whoever the next director of the game is going to be, strap them to a chair Clockwork Orange style and mix the entire Criterion Collection and Evangelion for about a year or two.

  Then just for good measure have them write a page of names and slap them anytime a name nears anything of normal.

  Then, and only then, should they be allowed to start working.

  Well MAYBE if you hadn’t set up a massive cliffhanger and spent pretty much all of season 2 reading season 3, we would be fine with it. But you didn’t.

  Brian May is Incredibly protective of how Mercury is portrayed, IMO much to the detriment of what the man truly represented and was. Like yes, he was a rock god but he was also a deeply troubled man who struggled with his identity and sexuality for decades much due to the work of people hiding queer icons behind rose-colored glasses as May has done.

  Remember the time Top Gear reviewed the Roadster, then when they reviewed the Model C they had a joke about Jeremy having to have a team of lawyers riding with him to make sure all the things he said were “opinions, not statements?”

  This has been the MO for a long time lol
