I have no beef with Paul Wesley - young Kirk was described as "a stack of books with legs" back in TOS, and I think that comes through in the performance.

But Sam Kirk is an absolute delight.

If the first season wasn't your cup of tea, you might try skipping to season two - I personally think it's the weakest of the five, but it does introduce Mount, Peck, and Romijn as Pike, Spock, and Una.

And then there's the major shift at the end, which sets the stage for some seasons that I really enjoyed.

There was a leak a few days ago suggesting July 31, which has since been retracted by the source (SkyShowtime in Europe).

Interesting, thanks for catching that.

It does seem like a strange "error"...

This will probably be the only remotely positive thing I'll have to say about the CPC during this campaign, but good for them for taking out the trash.

And yeah, there's still a lot of trash left.

I know it was technically the lower bid, but I had high hopes for the Loblaws offer.

Anything that focuses on construction is the way to go.

Hiya Toys is pushing their Kelvin line pretty hard, though they also have the license for some SNW stuff - there's an Anson Mount Pike figure available.

I think he could, and would, do exactly that, if Danielle Smith were a federal CPC candidate.

It'd be just as wrong, too.

The line is,

Okay. If we eject the core and detonate, the blast could be enough to push us away! I cannae promise anything, though!

It's interesting that the dialogue is the singular "core," while the VFX shows multiple ejections.

I'm sticking with antimatter pods.

 

Carney was asked why the Liberal party hasn’t dropped candidate Paul Chiang for his comments about Conservative candidate Joe Tay.

“The comments were deeply offensive,” said Carney. “This was a terrible lapse of judgment by Mr. Chiang. He has apologized for those comments.”

The Liberal leader added that he spoke to Chiang over the weekend to “understand his position.”

“He is a veteran policeman,” with more than a quarter-century of service to his community, said Carney.

“He will continue with his candidacy going forward, having made those apologies very clearly to the individual, to the community, and moving forward to serve,” said Carney, adding that Chiang is a “person of integrity” who “has my confidence.”
