Why does Michael Sullivan remember his wife? 😧
Also, the macro nano probe and tng workout scene callbacks were absolutely amazing.
As far as I remember they didn’t restore Frannie in VOY: “Spirit Folk” either.
…moopsy
The DS9 episode was handled with such dignity, but the Voyager episode was a fever dream and I am absolutely here for it!
After 3 seasons, it’s surprising to finally have a voice actor for Westlake.
I didn’t know I needed Clarinet Macro Viruses and assimilated Salamander Automatons at the helm, but my gosh did the LD team deliver!
I wonder if the promotion rollout explains why marketing for this season was so sparse.
I LOVED Shaxs talking about his relationship issues with Ransom and the fourth wall lean on the tubes was perfection.
They’ve definitely edited some of the rank pips in trailer shots we haven’t seen yet (and some we have). Might explain why T’lyn is rocking a standard ensign pip a bit into the first trailer.
These episodes were both great. I have shipped Mariner/Ransom since s1 and, well, honestly, this new dynamic of theirs probably makes it even less likely than it ever was lol. But they were fun episodes. I do wish Lower Decks had more episodes, since they’re only 20 min/ea.
That’s one thing I don’t like about the streaming trend. They have a lot more freedom to do what they want but the seasons are much shorter.
I don’t need 28 episode seasons, but maybe 15?
Yeah, honestly so much is lost with the shorter seasons. And wrt LD in particular, I get that filming 28 episodes a year was hell on the actors/production, but surely doing VA is less time consuming than live action acting?
I feel like they wouldn’t make a display of the salamanders, as long as Janeway has access to weaponry.
She nonchalantly told a bunch of kids about it in Prodigy. Or was that Holo Janeway?
