For what it’s worth, indeed. I’m glad that Prodigy, and its fan and creative team support, were acknowledged. The most heartening part of the comment for me was, “They are part of the canon.”

I thoroughly enjoy most everything about DSC Klingons. With their appearance, I didn’t like or dislike their look when I first saw it so much as I was surprised. Klingons have a history of looking very different throughout Star Trek. I’ve rewatched DSC so many times, I’m used to how the Klingons look. However, I absolutely love the depiction of Klingon society. I still marvel at the Klingon armor and sets. The dichotomy of such a combative society and the intricate beauty of their ships, armor, everything. Their artistry goes beyond simple functionality. I think it adds depth to the Klingons.

I hope that the series finale is satisfying, too. Jonathan Frakes and Olatunde Osunsanmi as directors of it is a good sign. Jonathan Frakes + Star Trek = awesome. I enjoy a lot of Olatunde Osunsanmi’s Star Trek work as a director, including one of my favored DSC episodes, “What’s Past Is Prologue” (s1e13). That episode has everything. Action, drama, pathos. I love Saru’s delivery of, “That is all I needed to see. Fire!” Fabulous spark igniting the action of that scene. I enjoy DSC.

Thanks for the info. I miss seeing regular characters in episodes, but I can’t fault Ms. Oladejo and other actors for working on other projects. I’m hoping all the characters are there for the final episodes of the series. Including Tilly. Michelle Paradise previously said, “I can’t spoil anything into season five, except to say that we love Tilly. I expect that we’ll have her in the world and all of those things. She’s not going anywhere,” so that’s encouraging.

That is so awesome! “Mike says he was a bit of an outsider at school.” A lot of cool kids were, Mike. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

They did it! Currently at 30,063 signatures with the next goal being 35,000. Take that, Paramount+.

Yes! I’m sad to see DSC end, but I’m hyped about this upcoming season.

Interesting snippet. A lot of action. It does look like Burnham has relaxed into her captaincy. And, continues the tradition of Starfleet captains putting themselves in harm’s way. No sign of Book in this clip, but Burnham sure has picked up Book’s, “come on!” expression when things are going sideways. I am perplexed by one thing – who is Gallo and why are they in Owosekun’s bridge position? Where is Owosekun? Argh. I just have to be patient and wait until season 5 is out.

This made me laugh so loud that I woke up my cat, and he is not pleased. I’m getting a feline judgment, there will be retribution, look from him.

I am so looking forward to Lower Decks season 4. That screencap breakdown is great. So. Much. Goodness! I love the poster artwork. I’m going to watch this preview umpteenth times until the new season starts. Lower Decks! Lower Decks!

I think of Section 31 as the Federation’s dirty little secret, operating off the books, weapon of last resort. I wasn’t surprised that the Federation was capable of things that didn’t fit its public doctrine when the utter destruction of the people of Federation by an outside, more powerful force was nigh. The Federation leans into diplomacy, but I never thought it impossible for them to have bag of tricks – Section 31. To me, the Federation would let the Federation fall because, say, member worlds left. But, not when something is about to destroy most or all of the people of the Federation.
