    I will admit there’s a few scenes here and there that were pretty good Trek. Just a shame it’s embedded in the rest. I don’t even mind the overall idea, just the execution is bad. And some of the resolutions of mysteries are…well, stupid. It’s a bit like GoT all over again. I know writers and directors read their fan posts everywhere, so why don’t they go with the best fan theories instead of…whatever shit they come up with?

      Been watching through and was really thrown by the end of Season 2, where Tilly just… knows a Queen that’s integral to the plot? Apparently there’s a companion show of short side episodes? (also how the hell is she still a cadet? that whole side plot seems to just have been forgotten except for the occasional remark)

      The character was interesting, the show has it’s ups and downs, but that’s only a tad better than Palpatine showing back up in a special™️ Fortnite event.

        If you have extended universe stuff, that’s lovely. If you reference it, that’s fine. If you rely on it, that’s troubling. If I only learn about it because I had to google WTF was happening and whether I’d completely missed an episode, that’s bad.
