Star Trek: Discovery

[Andrew NDB]

So this past Sunday's episode...

Spoiler:

The Discovery is in the Mirror Universe and they're looking for the USS Defiant, last seen in Enterprise. Inexplicably, it looks like the USS Defiant has been Abramsversed...

I really gotta get back to watching Discovery. I want to see what Frakes was able to do with an episode!

He doesn't redefine the wheel or anything. It's a whole lot of talking about the Mirror Universe and a whole lot of not showing it, but that's a script thing.

I think a lot of my problems with Discovery would go away if they'd just kept the Klingons looking like one of the two established on screen looks.

This OMGNEW Klingon look and culture is just so ingrained and important to the entire Discovery story, I can't get past it. If it weren't for that, I think I'd be able to stomach the needless 10-years-before-TOS story elements.

I dunno.

I'd certainly be more forgiving if they did that. And the uniforms should be like the ones in "The Cage" (and with better fabric they'd look pretty sweet in a 2017 show).

And phasers that work like phasers. And no holodecks, you f***ers.

Yeah, the holo-technology is a hard one to overlook...

I do like the uniforms, though. The gold/silver/copper color scheme is cool. But I really wish they'd found a way to keep the gold/red/blue color scheme with it somehow...

Looks like the official STD Facebook has banned and blocked me because I vote an Angry Face every time I see one of their stupid popups on FB.
