The Bell Riots episodes feel very prophetic

I believe they take place roughly a year from now in the timeline. It definitely hits close to home given the circumstances.

For very “The Visitor,” you also get a “Trials and Tribbilations.”

The time loop variety are my favourite. The one from TNG where the enterprise keeps getting blown up is great. I also love the Discovery episode. It was like fighting an evil groundhogs day guy.

Honestly, I would put those above mirror universe episodes any day of the week.

Hot Take: the only truly good mirror universe episode was Mirror, Mirror.

I like how they make someone dress sexy whenever they want to show that they’re evil.

I generally like him, but mirror universe Vic Fontaine was one of the dumbest things I’ve ever seen.

Tbh i hate the mirror universe now… from being a not-so-serious in-joke that came back every now and then, not as much as nudging the timeline, plot or characters into any too serious a direction, to becoming an important part of cannon that I just don’t like… mostly because of Discovery and Picard.

It’s really just too cheesy. Alternative universes, by all means, but just a mirror universe where there’s a bit of a role reversal which stems from can only be described as “a trend in the 70s”.

Mirror this, bizarro that, cod sarn it. To call it a gimmick is a bit of an understatement. To call it cannon is a bit embarrassing.

Now excuse me, I’ve ranted about Star Trek on the interwebz, so now I have to go fulfill the government mandated 3 hours of grass touching.

Would you touch some for me too? I don’t want to pause my stream.

I thought the Picard one was a different evil timeline and not the mirror one?

Correct, it’s the confederacy instead of federation or terran empire.

I like that particular cheese, but I couldn’t agree more that making it canon or blowing it into something more than a fun time you bust out once in a while to let your actors have a bit of fun playing a bad guy is kinda lame.
