discovery 05x04 proves that tv shows CAN and SHOULD do filler episodes even in short seasons. the plot moved nowhere but the characters did and that's what it's about!!! and about stopping for a minute and being weird!!! now can everyone else do it please
I hope Rayner buys Reno that Vesper martini he owes her from the alt timeline. And probably make her go "sir, you know I'm a lesbian, right?" xD. But then they bond over being salty bitches. Reno can teach him how to be a better functioning salty bitch that isn't disliked by everyone.
Reading a early review of Disco season 5 and "it reveals the mystery early and isn't a season long mystery box" yes.... "it does more worldbuilding about the state of the universe in the future" YES... "it more organically incorporates the bridge crew" YES....
I really like that Synths are just part of the Star Trek universe now. Like, they're not major puzzle pieces in a mystery box; they're just a Type of Guy who turns up every so often.
I love that they brought up the progenitors, like that was a huge thing to happen that in classic star trek fashion nobody ever mentioned again. but it's also funny to me that they're dedicating an entire season to a plot from a single tng episode
