i'm surprised they even attempted the diner story, much less made it work as well as it did for tv. still wasn't exactly great, but it wasn't bad imo

finished the season tonight; thought most of the casting was pretty drat good except rose, who i dunno if she can't act or just had really bad direction or what. some of the vfx were lol worthy but nothing that really distracted from the story. decent adaptation, i'm interested to see how they handle the next bit if the curse of netflix doesn't strike them

she’s really weird, sometimes she overacts bigtime and oversells silly little choices or asides like she’s playing to the cheap seats, then sometimes she has no affect and seems like she’s repeating lines she’s hearing for the first time read to her over an earpiece

it's literally her first role. like maybe she did some theater or commercials or something, but this is literally the only thing on her imdb page. so i'm guessing it's a combination of very green actress and having trouble directing around that. it's a weird choice, regardless, and i'm sure there has to be other young Black women with more experience they could have cast

The first 15 minutes of TNG 11010100 (or whatever) seems to be entirely about jerking off, Picard with his "relaxation light" and rikard discovering you can do it in the holodeck

lesson of this episode seems to be that Riker would click on all the "hot singles in YOUR area are desperate for you" ads.


e: now Data is doing tech support for grandpa. Is actually a pretty good episode!

it was good, the sequel, not so much

the sequel is rather ironically named agency, a thing the main protagonist is without

also its pretty funny to put "William Gibson, author of Agency" on the cover of The Peripheral.

yeah she is a high school play level actress at this point. let her be one of the collectors or Galt if you like her and want to give her a shot, she can’t ruin an episode that way. the poor girl cannot carry a scene and her reactions are like the faces in the little books you use to teach toddlers what emotions are. idk how they got to the end of her first day of shooting and didn’t immediately try to replace her

it was called the dark universe and I'm pretty sure the words "dark universe" are literally said out loud in the one dark universe movie that got made
