Picard was fantastic! You didn't watch Discovery? Earth-shine Jun 2021 #4

I did watch most of the first season kirkuchiyo Jun 2021 #55

I am a long-term ST fan. I thought Discovery was a bit flawed, but otherwise quite engaging. Earth-shine Jun 2021 #56

My name is Kirk, I am required to be a fan, pretty sure it's in the bylaws kirkuchiyo Jun 2021 #64

You really want spoilers? Earth-shine Jun 2021 #68
