I really enjoyed E10 as well. Thanks a mil for the link. I’ll give it a read after work tonight.

Yeah, that’s the worst Tendi gets in the whole series. She usually has excellent self control.

Man, I knew I loved LDS after the first 5 minutes. Show came out the gate running

This is really what Strange New Worlds is most about: giving us precious knowledge about what our heros in the original Star Trek were all doing before we met them on the Enterprise in the TV sets in our living rooms in the 1960s

I respectfully disagree. I don’t think the most important parts of this show are the things it depicts legacy characters doing, though your review mentions little else.

Given your clear fondness for TOS, I’d be interested in reading you compare the two more!

@ikesau Thanks for the comment. To read what I think of non-legacy characters in Strange New Worlds, try some of my reviews of other episodes of the series (for example, the time-travel episode in which Singh and Kirk are the main characters, and I discuss Singh as much as Kirk).

Hey … you’re posting to lemmy from mastodon … that’s awesome!!

Just a few small tips for making it work better on the lemmy side of things (mostly post formatting).

First … you can look at how your post appears on lemmy here: startrek.website/post/363006

Basic formatting tips:

1. Treat the first line of you post as the title. You can see that your whole post, including hashtags, is on one line, and so creates a large messy title over here.
2. Keep hashtags out of the title as they create links that are messy
3. The next lines are treated as the body of the post … you can put everything else here including hashtags (which will work well) etc.
4. If you want to tag anyone else, make sure to tag them after the lemmy community, as lemmy only pays attention to the first tag (which is a measure to prevent spam)

I wrote a little demo of what works here: hachyderm.io/@maegul/110483509521476095

Otherwise … really appreciate the effort to try to bridge these two spaces!

@maegul thanks -- I'll follow that format from now on
