38 minutes agoHonestly, for me, the finale covered it enough. It’s obvious they like each other. I don’t think it needs to be directly confirmed in dialogue for it to be legit. :)

Curiosity rising. Just a little. But it’s something. ;)
That works, too. (And probably closer to what I was thinking, honestly.)
There’s room for it, under the right conditions, but… this feels completely wrong in almost every direction. Section 31, as a collective group, should not feel like a bad rip off of Guardians of the Galaxy. Absolutely the wrong tone.
I will give it a fair shot, however, since it won’t cost me anything but my time. :P
I really, really, really hope this ends up being like Lower Decks where I was very skeptical of it going in, but ended up loving it.
Because everything about this is actively repelling me.
Ugh. Another sour bit of Picard trivia for the pile. Del Arco comes across as a decent fellow. I remember spending all season wondering where the hell this was all going and hoping his character’s death – in the full context – would make more narrative sense. How blissfully naive I was. :P
It’s crazy that the show I was most hyped for ended up being the one I’d erase from the timeline if I could. Visually gorgeous, with a great cast… but, IMHO, it was far too ‘grimdark’ for it’s own good. That and it’s shattershot kitchen-sink approach to storytelling makes it all feel like some fan fiction wet dream in retrospect. Anything positive I could take away from the series is almost completely lost in the noise.
(Keeping in mind that I keep S1/S2 distinct from S3, which while an improvement, has it’s own things going on. 😏)

*I liked the reveal of Ruby’s mother being a normal woman. *
Yeah! There’s a lot of ideas in Last Jedi that I really enjoyed and looked forward to being explored, and Rey’s parents being “nobody”, suggesting that you didn’t have to be in a special “Jedi/Sith destiny” club to be important was one of my favorite ones. It was optimistic. Hopeful. Anyone can be the hero. That’s powerful stuff.
Absolutely foolish that they dumped that whole idea in the next film. (Then again there’s so much wrong with Ep9 that it might as well be decanonzed.)
…threw him into the time vortex again, but this time it’s permanent, I guess precisely because he’d done it once before. Okay, fine, I guess.
It’s not terribly satisfying outcome, admittedly. I mean, it was fun to watch in the moment, sure, but it’s not exactly a clever resolution… 🤷
Wild ep. Looked great, too.
But man, calling something “S TRIAD” is such an awkward, RTD thing to do…
I love SNW, but when I hear “swings” I hear “gimmicks” and that’s worrying.
Much of her lousy behavior I immediately just chalked up to being a childish brat. And I figured her being nicer to Ruby because she’s easier to identify with as a young, hip, pretty girl. (I was so close to the truth…) Everything else past, including irritating with The Doctor, I just lumped into the unfolding insanity that started as soon as he first showed up.
The only part I wasn’t immediately sure about Ricky/“white Doctor” and how he fit into the whole story. I guess I expected some kind of eventual betrayal, just… not in the way it happened…
Man… I’ll be thinking about this one for quite a long time, I think. :)
Quite impressive.
Holy shit, I don’t remember that at all. :O
