The weeks go by so fast, you find yourself on another Monday morning. But before you know it, it's Friday and time for the weekend. But then the weekend also flies by, and it's late Sunday night & time for a new week, where the same happens. On and on in a loop...

4/4 And the plentiful eye candy(especially Erica Ortegas [Melissa Navia] 😍🥵 ) is definitely an appreciated bonus. 😎

3/ Looks like it will have the same camaraderie and closeness between the crew that we have seen so far.
And, as it has been filmed, we will almost certainly see it soon, rather than waiting 2 f3ckin years like we did between Seasons 2 finale and Season 3 premiere. #SNW #StrangeNewWorlds

2/ Granted, it seems like that particular episode will be a typical "temporal paradox" theme, as has happened so often in the franchise, so isn't exactly novel episode premise. But, by that same token, it means it will potentially meet true Star Trek spirit and style. #SNW #StrangeNewWorlds

Now, after the rather underwhelming trailer for Starfleet Academy, this is lot more pleasing and enticing. 👍🏼👌🏼

4/4 Of course, Keira was absolutely stunning, and did great work with what she was given, despite the script itself going off the rails.
So, overall, a decent enough offering. Though certainly had much more potential than it eventually met.

3/4 Up until it lost momentum, it had a real "Tales of The Unexpected" vibe to it, & had a similar energy as that show did back in the day. The "twist" included. Though, as stated, that came much too early and ought to have been delivered further into the runtime, so fell flatter than it should have

2/4Quite good, though it reaches the climax rather too quickly, leaving the remaining 30 or so minutes rather underwhelming. Which is a shame, as up until then, the whole psychological torment, manipulation and gaslighting the character went through allowed Keira to deliver a great performance.

Mike Johnson once demanded a doctor "admit" that there are no such thing as stillbirths / miscarriages, and that he insisted that the women who have them were/are just lying about having elective LTAs 👇🏻
The man is utterly repul$ive

Looks a little bit better than the teaser trailer from a months back did. But still not making me feel very enthusiastic. 🤷🏼‍♂️
Will still reserve full judgement until I actually check it out. 😎

MRAs : "What about the suicide rate among men, why don't people ever comment on that? Feminazis, that's why!!"
Also MRAs: "Depression? Loneliness? That's just real life! Suck it up and deal with it like a real man, snowflake!! 😏

Trump and Netanyahu would love to gaslight the world that their plans for a genuine & lasting peace are sincere . But they have already revealed their true ambitions months ago.

I remember what it was like back then. Having to wait literal years before "new" episodes were available for UK viewers who didn't have Sky, let alone on demand streaming, after their first broadcast in the US. Even saw Generations well before "All Good Things"
