It will be something or someone from a past series or movie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I see a trailer like this where "we face this together", "more than ourselves" and the whole shit about the crew being family force-fed at every single point. Jesus. ST TOS, TNG, DS9, Christ even Voyager could imply the close bond that had developed between the crew without banging on about them being more like family every episode. It's a ship FFS. It's where you work..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvo Montalbano Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Only just seeing this thread. No clue what Pluto TV is or if I can get it or I can catch up with it but the general concensus is that it's not great? Might wait for Strange New Worlds if/when that becomes available. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's free online and on the firestick. It's alright. A streaming service with its own "channels" you browse through with a few catch up opens. It has a Mythbusters channel, for instance, which is just old episodes of Mythbusters streaming back to back with adverts. Most the channels are like that for specific programmes on genres. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s essentially live TV it doesn’t have on demand, you can only watch it live and it has adverts. Disco is shown Friday, Sat & Sun at 9pm The quality of the stream is pretty good to be fair, and it’s free 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the old days I guess. Although I tend to watch most of my TV these days early in the morning before il ragazzo Montalbano wakes up rather than in the evenings which is why I tend to sky + stuff or watch Netflix etc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottsdad Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 A season finale of two halves. First half good, second half the crew standing talking to the big boss from Doom 2. In the last episode they couldn't understand each other. Now, in the apparent space of a few hours they can dish out long speeches about love. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnightswoodBear Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Since Sky have very kindly given me Paramount+ now, I decided to see if S4 was any improvement on S3. 2 episodes in and they've managed to make everyone even more unbearable. Just awful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottsdad Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 I hate this show. It saddens me that they have taken a huge budget and spunked it all on special effects instead of, say, hiring writers who can write. This new season is like one of those terrible new Star Wars shows where everything is dystopian. There is nothing original here. Everything has been a botched rehash of something from an old show - Harry Mudd, Section 31 (a clandestine outfit that now has a fleet of ships), mirror universe...and now they have taken a really shit episode of The Next Generation and based season 5 on it. I am so glad this is finishing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am so glad this is finishing. The only good thing to come from Discovery is that it reignited Star Trek as a TV show as Picard and Lower Decks have had decent moments and Strange New Worlds has been almost exclusively very good. I hate how Burnham is the best of the best at everything. Even in a new century, she's the best. Even dealing with species she's never met. She's the best pilot, best tactician, best fighter, best politician, best engineer, best problem solver. The rest of the crew I quite like - Stammets, Culber, Detmer, and especially Tilly and Saru - but we hardly see them because Burham had to do everything. Even though she caused the Klingon war in the first place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
