I have to watch the new season. As much as I found Ed/Teleya interesting, I'm a bit of an Ed/Kelly shipper.

Same. I don't want to be, but I totally am lol.

Thank you! :) I can't remember who made it but the credit's there on my page somewhere!

Really liked the all the allusions and commentary in this ep, they managed to present the Krill very well.

It did end up feeling a little rushed at the end, though I loved that they didn't shy away from showing the very real toll in the battle, I hope they follow up on it. The whole directive 21 stuff was neat.

I'm a little torn on the big reveal this ep, but if they can stay the course, I dare say they might actually out Trek Trek.

Also, Issac's line at the start took me a minute, but when I got it, I laughed pretty hard.

I really don’t want them to back pedal with Ed and Kelly. Anayah was so adorable, those big eyes! 🥹

Oh, and I am not mad about the John/Talla tease they dropped in that holodeck scene.

[senshi_forever]

What I hate about this is how John seems like such a player!!!! Our girl Talla deserves much better imho.

Not a fan of the Mary Sue character Charlie.

But with the actress dating Seth, it makes sense she's getting screen time that could go to some of the original characters.

how is Charly a Mary Sue lol? She's literally introduced to be hostile to the audience and the beloved characters
