A note about episode discussions on startrek.website
Right now, the plan is to post the /c/startrek discussion when the episode drops on Thursdays. Once the global community has had some time to watch and digest what they’ve seen, the /c/daystrominstitute discussion will go live on Sundays for a more in-depth analysis. This is subject to change as we evaluate what works best for the community as a whole.
I’m not sure how I feel about a Pike-lite episode kicking off the season. Although I like that separating the party gave us more backstory on M’Benga. Ortegas next please?
Was the planet inspired by Zhangjiajie National Park?
Lastly, were I a captain my “thing” would either be “All in” or a comedic “Yatta!!!”
