JenP, "SNW" is short for "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds."
Oh! Thanks, dcp. I really enjoy Strange New Worlds. The characters are so endearing, and I like the range of storytelling.
I also just binged Lower Decks, which I hadn't watched at all but decided to check out after the SNW crossover, which was delightful.
I just added Ghosts to my queue.
Yay, Tom. It's fun.

Especially for Jay bonding with Pete .
I hope they can make a way for Jay to communicate a little more with the ghosts.
These are not unrelated for me. Jay & Pete have such genuine fondness for each other, I'd like them to be able to develop their relationship more.
I've been watching Ghosts. I like it much better than the British original. Everyone is just so charming.
I've only seen a few clips of the UK version, but from what I can tell: yes, this!

Hrmph. The British version is awesome.

I did not know there was a British version. I am way behind the times, it seems.
Can I say, I love that there are new posts in Boxed Set every time I pop in today? Such a joy!

Ghosts is delightful! The British version is on my tbw list.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I love Ghosts! Both kinds
I wasn't going to keep watching Strange New Worlds after the crossover episode (so good!) but then they did the musical episode (I loved the mention of bunnies and the line "I've got a theory") so I just kept going.

I'm trying to figure out where I can access British Ghosts. I expect I'll enjoy it if I see more than a 2 minute clip. I know I like the female lead (even though I can't remember what I know her from).

I like both versions of Ghosts! I was ready to dislike the American one on principle, but then I watched a few episodes and fell in love with it. I am impressed with the ways the writers modified the premise rather than just rehashing it, and I've enjoyed watching the characters grow.

Epic, it’s on Max if you have that.
