Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

now I'm hooked on Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. Charismatic cast!

I watched the crossover episode with Lower Decks yesterday and now I need to go back and watch the whole show.

I'm back from my diagnostic mammogram (which AFAICT is identical to a screening one except they have a doctor evaluate the results in real time and ask for additional images if need be). The doctor didn't see anything concerning, so rather than doing an ultrasound immediately afterward they put me on a schedule of annual mammograms in the summer and annual MRIs in the winter.

Woot!

and now I need to go back and watch the whole show.

I really love the whole cast, which is not that common. The actors playing Pike, Number 1 and Spock are all sexy, screen charisma champs, and the actress playing Uhuru is bringing depth to that characterization.

It's really well written and true to the Trek spirit of finding and creating solutions rather than shooting their way out of trouble. Kind of classic Trek mission-of-the-week but with some fascinating arcs.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

As soon as Pike showed up on Discovery, it was like a charisma explosion. He was immediately so great.

The brilliant acting and character work in Strange New Worlds is even more amazing when compared to the other new Treks, Discovery, and Picard, in which the characters repeatedly have to do stupid things for plot reasons.

I liked the Picard I watched(only one season) but that doesn't make you wrong.

Depends if it was the third season.

Haven't gotten that far yet, no.

Love watching Stranger New Worlds. Lower Decks is what I'm finally starting after yesterday's ep. Fun.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, I'm feeling great about my choice to skip all the rest and watch Strange New Worlds. It is great!!

See, I love all of the newer shows. We devoured Discovery and Picard and loved every second. Also love SNW!

Also, hi. I'm about 200 posts behind.
