Worf should take off his baldrick and drop it on the ground, leaving a crater, revealing it weighs like 2000 pounds because for the last ten years he has been training in high gravity

Also the sometimes creative use of the engine powered by literal mushrooms.

they never did anything particularly creative with the mushroom aspect and also the mushroom aspect was plagiarized.

lol, 'Discovery' and 'creative' in the same sentence; there isn't anything in Disco that hasn't been done far better in other Treks.

Next time on Staaar Trek: Discovery! Join Michael Burnham and Side Character #24 as they snort pixie sticks in the boys' bathroom and say "vulva" as they snicker and stifle laughter. Nickleback guest stars

Picard is basically the a story of a grumpy old man who goes for an extended walk to see some old friends.

Jean Luc Picard entertains his old shipmates at his vineyard and reminisces about his life's greatest accomplishments, like the time he negotiated a peace treaty between the blue forehead wart people and the green nose wrinkle people

sort of started that way, which is why I had hope. Become bad then, tho. Sad. Also, I have paused my Discovery Enterprise dual watch bc. of mental health issues. As it stands, Ent >> Disco but on opposed trajectories. Ent gets better again though.

TBH, I wanted to see Jean Luc, no longer in command, but enjoying his golden years while acclimating to a life outside of Starfleet, with a little adventure along the way. Sure, you'd have fewer people in motorcycle helmets being kicked off of buildings, but I think it'd have it's own charm. I get why they didn't do it, there probably isn't a dump truck big enough for all the cash Patrick Stewart would want to do The Last of the Summer Wine but in Space, and no one under 40 would even remotely give a poo poo. infernal machines fucked around with this message at 03:22 on Mar 23, 2021 |

Well they've stripped off their spacesuits while they're on this Klingon ship because the air's breathable, let's have them ditch the undersuit as well and walk around in skintight bodysuits for some gratuitously-close shots of T'Pol and Hoshi together.... . And of course Shibari Knots of P'jem.

It's disappointing because when the series isn't taking itself too seriously it's really enjoyable. Too bad that only happens when the supporting characters are in screen. What I'm basically saying is make Jett Reno the main character.
