I kinda like how they talk. It feels more alien ya know? Yeah. Alien to how any language would realistically be spoken.  You've met aliens that we can communicate with? Please get me in contact with them XD. |

Whenever we do, I'm betting they won't look like humans in prosthetics. In all seriousness, what's the point in words if you can't tell where they begin and end? Klingon is already an established language with vocabulary and grammar so it's not as though it's hugely different to Earth-based languages. |

Haha in all honestly any advanced aliens we meet will most likely be an a.i. I'm just messing with the klingon thing, I have no idea. |

I mean, Klingonese has originated on a series that made Shatner's... unique cadence a part of our pop culture. Maybe, like Shakespeare, the Klingons appropriated his pattern of speech?
You have not... heard Klingonese... until it is... performed by the original... William Shatner.
I'm referencing a line in Star Trek VI, I don't actually have a clip of Shatner speaking in Klingonese.

Also I like how the romance between Michael and Ash is being laid out. It isn't obnoxious and its focusing on her gaining her humanity back. |

about this weeks episode I never get tired of time loops, no matter how many times I see them I was a bit annoyed when I released that it was a time loop ep, they are kinda old hat and Star Trek has done so many of them, but the resolution was really clever. |

I'm not sure how Stamets managed to apprise everyone of the plan before Mudd arrived on the bridge the final time, but it was fun. |

Another thing that I'll excuse for comedy reasons, but was ridiculous when you think about it:
Mudd has learned a huge amount about the workings of the Federation's most advanced starship, that is supposedly turning the tide of the war against the Klingons, as well as having no regard for the lives of its crew, and they're just going to release him into some rich dude's custody? I get that they're providing continuity with the original series, but no way.

Also I really never noticed it but that female klingon who got her face burned has really piercing eyes. I'm liking her more and more.

Well damn that was...quite the episode. I've really enjoyed this series and I like the fact they aren't holding back on the more disturbing aspects of things. Looking forward for the season to continue whenever that is.

That was fun. Good that they weren't afraid to push the story on. I'm definitely glad that they've adopted a more arc-driven approach.
"There's a clearing in the forest. That's how they go!" - Stamets in the middle of the jump sequence. Something tells me that line has significance...
So after nine episodes, what do you guys think of the portrayal of Stamets and Culber's relationship? As a straight guy, I don't feel qualified to comment other than to say that I buy it, and I like the way that it doesn't define them. They are first and foremost a brilliant scientist and a doctor, but they happen to be in love, and that's treated in-universe as being entirely normal. |

Much love right back at ya!
