Six “I Remember” Moments in STD Episode 6

Since this episode was all about remembering things and not moving forward as a person, here are six things they mentioned that I remember from STAR TRAK:

I remember the Constitution class!

I remember Amanda!

I remember Yridia!

I remember green blood!

I remember Sarek’s bad relationship with Spock!

I remember Cargo Bay 5!

Disco. They actually… someone approved this. Someone got paid real American dollars to do this.

PS — Lorca is (predictably) stealing this show and should have been the main character. It’s not even close. Every scene featuring Burnham is just… it’s so bad.

[And this has nothing to do with male-female BS. Shockingly, the Captain will always be the more interesting character than some random officer. Add in the difference between good acting and bad acting and you get a situation where watching our “protagonist” is painful while watching Lorca is delightful.]

PPS — none of this “katra” stuff is correct and it’s driving me nuts.

PPPS — Humanizing Sarek might be the most offensive decision the production team has made, yet.
