ValueSubtracted

I don't doubt that this is true on balance, but the Danielle Smith jokes practically write themselves...

Yeah, I've never been about "ratings" posts - they're not banned from the community or anything, but they seem to mean whatever the beholder wants them to mean.

The franchise will be fine, one way or another.

I guess it's possible that it was a Liberal plant, but it has big "man vandalizes own house" energy.

I am glad they did keep follow on with Belinda really wanting to go home

Belinda's character seems a lot more nuanced at this stage than, say, Martha Jones was in her second episode. She was very open to a little adventure...as long as it didn't delay her trip home.

Thanks for hearing us out!

They had no time at all - filming was already complete.

They were given a short amount of time (3 days IIRC) to film the epilogue, and by then most of the sets had been dismantled.

In terms of the makeup, I prefer the season two refinements. But I really like the cultural depiction of the Klingons in season one.

I think the word "movie" is a little misleading, but it makes sense that they would have wanted to do a full 2-hour "event" episode.

I'm hopeful that there won't be any issues with startrek.website moving forward, but please feel free to reach out to me directly with any concerns (with the caveat that said concerns should directly involve you, and not some unrelated drama).

I’m pretty certain Who could have gotten around the Disco Klingon redesign much easier than Trek did.

Why do you have to give me flashbacks like that?

SirPatStew has shared the anecdote, but it's reportedly something that Roddenberry said.
