They cast all these characters, why not use them?

Anson Mount could carry his own show.

Nice twist on the ending this week.

I don't know what's going on anymore, or why.
I'm just clocking in and out watching the episodes and then going off to relax and watch actual thought provoking content.

The whole approach to the way DISCO is being written made me recall the episode "Muse" from VOY... where B'ellaana is stranded and provides story lines to a rather simplistic poet for plays... she'd tell him something coherent... and he'd say something like wheres the turn or the reveal or something like that... he was such a slave to the format rather than to allowing an organic story to unfold.... DISCO feels like that... we got an entire episode where they worked incredibly hard to make us believe one thing... only because they wanted to have a twist... and I say "Nice twist" but that doesn't mean it makes any sense... or should be plausible... but hey... the writers "fooled" us all, right?!

Oh... and with all this "mucking about wit time..." ... Where's the Dept of Temporal Investigations?? Ya'd think they wouldn't be too happy with that... or for that matter the entire JJ verse!

I kinda thought I was watching a reboot of Terminator in that last episode.... or maybe sec 31 is the start of the Borg.

NASA and JPL were the start of the Borg.

I dunno... I think they vaguely tried to explain that she tried everyday to keep the sphere data away... implying that control and the sphere data are linked... but yeah... all those mission logs... and none of them just beamed back in time and tried to destroy Cyberdyne... err sorry... I mean control.

Also does Michael have to cry in every episode?

She just has to get the suite up to 88 Mph, then the crystal... the Integral part of the flux capacitor, will do the rest!

Does the ship even have a Mr. Fusion?

Glad I'm not the only one asking "time crystal?"
Somebody smack those writers upside the head.

Its no more ridiculous than sling shotting around a star to time travel. Seemed easy enough to do, yet never happens outside of TOS or Star Trek IV.
Not to mention there is some real world basis for them

Season 1 also had one in the Mudd episode.

Yeah, I would smack those writers upside the head too, but that's in the past...simpler times...Superman did something similar too...
Lol, that time crystal is not in any way related to time travel. It time travels as much as you and I do as we move forward through time.

But for me its not the use of a crystal so much as it comes across as something thats been done before... by which I mean for me they didnt reinvent it enough to really make it their own... maybe that makes no sense, but thats how it came off to me.

The prosthetics they have the Klingons on in just look terrible.. and I see we got a triple dose of lens flare this episode.
