I think one of my biggest beefs with it, except the characters, is the whole mycelian network thing. I get that it's too hard to build into the future with the EU and all that, but putting such a major element in, that doesn't exist, and is never mentioned in anything else is a pretty big thingie, and I know alternative timelines, or "the technology was too unpredictable/dangerous" or at some point they'll seal it off from the universes to preserve it or some thingiemabob, but ngh!

Been keeping up and still find it as terrible as always. "Plot twists" that everybody saw coming from 500 miles away were bad, also wtf is it with the writers obsession with canibalism? Roddenberry would be rotating faster than a pulsar in his grave. It´s not Star Trek, it never will be.

Oh I never said it got better, but it was enjoyable in terms of action etc lol. I mean this was like your star trek X star wars "join the dark side and we can rule the universe together bullshit"

So as far as Star Trek goes this show will always be utter bullshit

In the history of cheap, shitty, copout anticlimatic endings, this one is right up there.
Zero tears will be shed if it doesn't get renewed, and I'm a lifer.

Agreed 100%. I literally burst the fuck out laughing at that shit. Also, the fucking "WE ARE STARFLEET" bs they pulled earlier that episode...holy fucking LOL. Being "STARFLEET" didn´t mean jack shit to yall during the WHOLE fucking season. God damnit this shit is terrible.

I thought this got canned...

**Cantih** · 2018-07-21 17:42

So that final scene in the trailer. A dig at Orville, or a desperate attempt to get in on some of it?

Ethan Peck (In Time/The Sorcerer's Apprentice) Cast as Spock

Through 52 years of television and film, a parallel universe and a mirror universe, Mr. Spock remains the only member of the original bridge crew to span every era of Star Trek. The great Leonard Nimoy, then the brilliant Zachary Quinto, brought incomparable humanity to a character forever torn between logic and emotion. We searched for months for an actor who would, like them, bring his own interpretation to the role. An actor who would, like them, effortlessly embody Spock’s greatest qualities, beyond obvious logic: empathy, intuition, compassion, confusion, and yearning. Ethan Peck walked into the room inhabiting all of these qualities, aware of his daunting responsibility to Leonard, Zack, and the fans, and ready to confront the challenge in the service of protecting and expanding on Spock’s legacy. In that spirit, we’re thrilled to welcome him to the family.
