Vulcans go on romantic getaways, too.

They were amnesiac following being joined with the Tal symbiont - they only sorted out these identity issues after Discovery took them to Trill.

Again, though, that completely removes the context of Adira's character arc.

What, in your view, was "exceptional" about Stamets' acceptance in that scene?

I suggest cross-posting this to c/startrek to get maximum eyeballs on it.

Sorry, I've already imagined the backstory of Discovery Season 3-5. Those centuries are now off-limits.

That rather ignores the fact that Adira was an amnesiac stowaway at the time, with some pretty understandable trust issues.

It also ignores that the characters in the scene in exactly the way you're saying they should have.

I disagree - you dislike TNG for completely different reasons.

By far Pike's most noticeable feature in TOS.

Programmed in just the one technique, but if you do it right, that's all you need.

Dave Filoni/Kathleen Kennedy situation but in Star Trek.

I'm not sure what, exactly, you mean by this, but both of those people have had pretty acclaimed careers.

I find it hard to imagine looking at the Trek series since 2017 and making a convincing case that the franchise is being mishandled.

 

I'm thrilled to announce that in eight months, !startrek@startrek.website has reached the 10 000 subscriber milestone.

Whether you're a local user or visiting from across the Fediverse, thank you for helping to make this a great place to be.

Whatever comes next, I'm confident it will have zero side effects.
