Cool cool, you're just inserting irrelevant comments into a discussion I was having with someone else.

Truly dazzling.

So what about any of that screams "the Terran Empire did nothing wrong" to you? Or would you rather keep deflecting?

Georgiou eventually turned on her S31 superiors, joined the Discovery crew, and tried to make the Mirror Universe better when the Guardian (sort of) gave her the opportunity.

Yeah, I think Tilly and Vance can serve to "pass the torch" just fine, though I'm excited at the possibility that the other characters could pop up at any time.

And how would that be nostalgia-free?

Believe me, I am extremely aware.

Ironically, The Daily Show has moved to Paramount+ along with the rest of Trek (also ironically, with the exception of Prodigy).

So what you want is Star Trek that...had nothing to do with Star Trek, because literally anything using the title, concept, or characters will be, by definition, "built on nostalgia." Got it.

For sure - I'm certain the supplements will be useful even with the 2E rules.

Surely there are surgical options you could explore first.

Meaney had always struck me as the ultimate working actor, fairly ambivalent about Star Trek beyond it being a job (which is fine).

It's hard to imagine him turning down an offer, were it too come in.

With Prodigy season 2 poised to drop 20 episodes on us on Monday, we're trying to decide how to manage the discussions. Each option has its pros and cons, so why not put it to the group? The way I see it, we have three options:

  1. One discussion thread per episode, with an index pinned to the community for convenience.

  2. Four discussion threads, breaking the season into 5-episode blocks, with an index pinned to the community for convenience.

  3. One megathread to discuss the season, with no episodic threads.

  4. Individual episode threads, dropped at a rate of two per day.


Edit: Based on the response, we'll go with Option 1. I might space out the actual posts somewhat, though, to avoid spamming the "All" feed too much.

 

The so-called "intelligence to evidence" dilemma involves striking a balance between the need to shield sensitive intelligence and law enforcement's use of that information, along with the need to protect an accused's right to a fair trial.

Duheme added the RCMP has an "excellent relationship" with CSIS but the problems involved in using intelligence as evidence have plagued the two agencies for years.
