Adding Klingon language version of “Total Eclipse of the Heart” to my karaoke list.

For Spock, “The Griffin Incident” is something of a sequel to “Four and a Half Vulcans.” The former is horror and the latter is comedy but they both represent Spock’s struggle to reckon with his Vulcan and human heritage. In one, his own internalized racism and self hatred are made manifest, driving him away from his Vulcan side. In the other, his Vulcan discipline and logic are able to save him from being consumed by his human fear and emotion.
That awkward moment when your horror scifi accidentally evokes the same energy as a beloved sitcom.

Punch is Geordie La Forge in the first season of TNG. Later on, Punch becomes like Geordie La Forge as a grown up Commodore with a family in Star Trek: Picard. Jimothy is Levar Burton in Reading Rainbow - an inspiration to us all.

Every once in a while, declare peace. It confuses the hell out of your enemies.

Space is limitless in its beauty and in its terror. Whatever you encountered, the only thing that matters is that you survived.

I see you Uhura going from a subtle smile to a sad pout just because that’s what you think your sad captain needs to see.

When the Martians destroy their enemies' homeworld Spock comes up with a plan to get Enterprise home by steering it into the shockwave. As the camera pans over the crews' faces, it is only Spock who appears to have any confidence that the plan will succeed.

Sam Kirk’s comment about having encountered a species with a smell based language feels like a reference to Species 10C from #StarTrekDiscovery even if that episode is set 1000 years in the future.

Count me in on the Pelia should be in Dr. Who bandwagon. But which Doctor? Matt Smith? Tom Baker? Neil Tennant?
Peter Capaldi? It might make foand interesting combination. Pelia was a roadie for The Grateful Dead and Capaldi did play the Doctor With a rockstar vibe.

Is Erica and Scottie arguing about the control sounds going to be a thing? Is he going to be changing them every week? In the trailer we heard a Tribble cooing and I would love it if was just Scottie deciding to have the controls make animal sounds that week. #StarTrek #StrangeNewWorlds
In season two of #StarTrekDiscovery, Captain Pike orders Una to rip the holographic communication system out of Enterprise permanently. In season three of #StarTrek #StrangeNewWorlds, he concludes that the new holodeck is not ready for use on ships and jokes that Scottie’s addendum about how it could be made to work should be written in a smaller font. For a former test pilot, Pike sure is skittish about experimental technology.
Crazy. Dangerous. Maybe even insane. But I’m kind of impressed. Is that weird?
