omg, it was such a nice episode - right up until the end when the writers decided that we needed a 2 minute lecture about climate change.
I was actually impressed by the subtile beauty of the message until Yaz had to yell "CLIMATE CHANGE" continued by a lecture about being responsible to the people actually least able to do anything about it, since they aren't actually on earth but travelling with her...
I like subtile messaging about issues - I HATE being preached to when trying to be entertained, so thats a 4/10 from me...
The episode that turns our lovely Enterprise crew into little more than murderers, and seems to want us to be on their side. A ridiculous concept for an episode that shows the Prime Directive for the nonsense it is, and feels like it's completely against the spirit of what these characters have always stood for.
Redeemed a little by having Paul Sorvino as Worf's brother Nikolai and for a creative use of the holodeck (later recycled in Star Trek: Insurrection), but even that is contrived as it conveniently stops working for plot purposes. Plus, if they needed a way to fix it then why not just sedate all of the Boraalans while they're sleeping and carry out the reboot?
I like this show, but it is getting very PC. Do you actually believe legal, law abiding gun owners are the problem? That criminals will give up their guns? Should we out law knives and vans. People who wart to harm will find a way.
Ugh... I support American gun reform but that episode was so clumsy and heavy-handed. I can't imagine it changing any minds.
I was angry at the start about this political bullshit. At the end I was just laughing about stupidity of this show. 2 more episodes and I am done with arrowverse. I will finish this season, but I don't think I will handle any more of this crap.
This is an attempt to parody a very significant issue in the United States but it just isn't funny. I'm not an American so this issue doesn't effect me as much. It seems like this episode is trying to take a stand rather than make its audience laugh.
Man, this show is so on point it's making me angry. Also, that might've been the most horrific sex scene I've ever seen on a TV show lol
