I feel like the "what is a star date?" line was to retcon the issue that Kirk will just throw random numbers for every date in his log in the following years

you can't make sense of X-Men in terms of physics. Where does Wolverine's body regenerates from? meat dimension
what's that word at the end? I'm getting KPOK
(technically not a planet but) I'm putting my money on Europa, we just have to wait until JUICE does its flyby on '31-'34 and we get to lick those plumes
this solution for immortality breaks thermodynamics. given that state, the body can no longer process nutrients to maintain self replication, you can starve cancer cells. either you're saved by malnourishment or you die from it.
this episode was the most lower decks episode in the show, and I don't say it as a compliment.
a lot of hate for the movie in this thread, hate the suits that develop projects based on the success of others instead of going for what has made their brand successful over the years. if they wanted new audiences they could have tried with something original, but the numbers said otherwise.
it's been a long road...
yes, I agree that the "not serious" label is probably not that accurate, but they were written to have fun with the material, and I don't agree that any of them had the cheese in the B-plot. They were adventures, most of them, but also with a silly aspect that sits at the core of Trek.
I think you're not remembering the amount of silliness on previous shows, let's analyze TNG S2:
Serious Episodes 59% (13 episodes)
- "Where Silence Has Lease"
- "Loud as a Whisper"
- "The Schizoid Man"
- "Unnatural Selection"
- "A Matter of Honor"
- "The Measure of a Man"
- "Contagion"
- "Time Squared"
- "The Icarus Factor"
- "Pen Pals"
- "Q Who"
- "The Emissary"
- "Peak Performance"
Not Serious Episodes: 41% (9 episodes)
- "The Child" (Troi's immaculate space-conception)
- "Elementary, Dear Data" ("Holodeck gone wrong" story)
- "The Outrageous Okona" (Data learns comedy)
- "The Dauphin" (Shapeshifting monster princess)
- "The Royale" (Another "holodeck gone wrong" story with no holodeck)
- "Samaritan Snare" (We are smart)
- "Up the Long Ladder" (Space irish)
- "Manhunt" (Lwaxana Troi is on the hunt for a husband)
- "Shades of Gray" (A clip show)
I think it's a good proportion of silly so far...
e: I made the same analysis for TNG S3, and I could only identify 3 silly episodes, so, I don't know. Take this with a grain of salt. Maybe SNW S4 is all business.
I foresee a future where a suit like this holds any ground, and we end up with a DRM'd web and a non-DRM web, and all the blogs and news sites go to the DRM'd portion because they're guaranteed that their ads will show. oh god we're going back to Tor.
they've shown her throughout the season rebuilding a motorcycle
