Mariner's weapons and garbage all over the ship is the same thing as the water in Signs.

Hopefully Boimler is just gone. Show should have a rotating cast of ensigns if it's going to continue.

But I'd miss ensign hughie!

Oh god, can you just imagine it. Wil Wheaton playing a cool Wesley Crusher who just styles on Boimler all the time. Fuuuuuuck

As someone that has never read any of the books I thought for sure that was Crusher as the Titan's captain as that looked more like Wheaton's beard than Frakes'.

Take a look at Nog as a good example of this; For someone outside of the Federation to enlist in Starfleet, they need the backing of a senior Starfleet officer just to even get a foot in the door.

In reality that's probably just a security concern. I doubt Starfleet would accept any random Romulan that showed up in San Fransisco into the academy.

So just need some senior officer to vet external candidates

Yeah, I don't see the solving the Burn problem as that weird? If you figure out it's a one time event then you can stop being terrified of warp cores. If it's something that's going to happen again, you need to abandon the tech entirely and get something else.

All those WH40k/Star Trek fanfic crossovers to the rescue! Warp cores unstable? Time to turn to psykers!

There's no way they'll recast him.

It's a real bummer we'll never see him on Lower Decks, since it seems like Eisenberg would have loved to do it.

My guess for the new security chief: Tasha Yar, somehow returned from the dead!

Comedy option: Harry Kim.

True

We'll just have to settle for Garak

comedy option, Jake

decades later the slylandro are maybe some of my favourite scifi aliens and ive always waited for some nerd to be like ahhhh sc2 stole it from this scifi writer!!! but nobody has ever done that to me yet which im glad for

I always loved the Mmrnmhrm in SC1 (just cause transformers are cool) and the Orz in SC2 cause someone had a lot of fun with the dialogue

How come nobody in Star Trek ever offered to play *spicy games* with Picard

Reading this thread during the entirety of season 3 without having watched a single scene from any episode has been fascinating. I've really enjoyed blind-reading this season of Disco, can't wait for the next season!

So when does Lower Decks come back?

I haven't seen a specific date but season 1 and 2 were produced at the same time. I've seen some people say it might be very shortly after the discovery finale, so here's hoping
