How dare these people behave semi-rationally! We've got a story to tell!

He memorably played "unconscious guy on a table" in "Shades of Gray."

I literally yelled at the TV: "Why didn’t you just do that?! Or at least technobabble away why you ‘can’t just’ "

You know, the execution was a little clunky, but I really appreciated the idea that Starfleet would sit around chatting about the situation for the bit, while the Breen would just swing in with a YOLO maneuver.

Yes, it was sarcasm, and Riker smiles upon you.

Are you the one on the left or the right?

Marvel at the two whole photos (okay, one whole photo and one heavily-cropped photo) that they've provided this week!

But hey...Nhan!

That's an interesting interpretation - like Richard, I assumed the Progenitors created both the portal and the container it was in (though not necessarily that the container was generating the portal, just encasing it).

It sounds like it will be released in the UK for sure - we might be more details in the future.

It sounds like it was somehow intended to represent that only one House holds the Holy Rings at a time - it's not clear if the symbol was meant to change depending on which House possessed them at the time.

It's really quite simple. No one was watching it, which is why it was cancelled.

But they had to keep making it because CBS All Access needed those viewers, which I remind you did not exist, to prop up the streaming service.

See? See?

I'm pretty ambivalent about her, but I agree it was an interesting performance, particularly for a woman at that time in television.

She was horribly underused - it's downright criminal that she doesn't pay a significant role in "The Measure of a Man."

 

Nobody likes a slideshow format, but at least this one's kind of fun.

 

The SXSW premiere was today, and it looks like the review embargo has been lifted, so reviews can be shared here.
