Star Trek: Discovery S1E7 Review: "Magic to Make the Sanest Man Go Mad" (TeeVee 329)
This week Scott is joined by David Loehr, perhaps not for the first time, to discuss twists in time and in the plot of this week’s episode of “Star Trek: Discovery.” (Yes, we know, there are issues with Scott’s audio. He was caught in a time loop during the recording of this episode and we can’t go back and change it now.) <p>Host Scott McNulty with David J. Loehr.</p>
Star Trek: Discovery S1E6 Review: "Lethe" (TeeVee 325)
This week Sarek returns and gets a Vulcan goodbye from a logic extremist, Burnham learns a surprising secret about her past and how she ended up in Starfleet, Lorca proves himself an adept manager and an unstable sleeping companion, and Tilly has a run-in with a snide food replicator. Scott mispronounces names and we try to correct him. Also, we inaugurate a new segment of the show, the Conspiracy Phaser! (If you don’t want to hear our wild spoilery speculation about where the show is going plot-wise, we will give you full warning so you can bail out.) <p>Host Scott McNulty with Jason Snell and Joe Rosensteel.</p>
Star Trek: Discovery S1E5 Review: "Choose Your Pain" (TeeVee 316)
Harry Mudd appears and hard choices must be made! Breaking down this week’s new episode of “Star Trek: Discovery” is only logical. <p>Host Scott McNulty with Jean MacDonald.</p>
Star Trek: Discovery S1E4 Review: "The Butcher's Knife Cares Not For the Lamb's Cry" (TeeVee 313)
Dan Moren joins Scott to discuss an episode featuring a surprise death at the hand of a not-so-monstrous monster, a whole lot more Klingon dialogue, a Special Guest Hologram, and the series’ first successful spore-enabled jump. <p>Host Scott McNulty with Dan Moren.</p>
Star Trek: Discovery S1E3 Review: "Context is for Kings" (TeeVee 306)
This week Scott is joined by two Scots to discuss Michael Burnham’s arrival on the USS Discovery. Vulcan martial arts! Gorn skeletons! The horrors of creepy alien monsters and perky roommates! This episode has it all… even a zipper and a Tribble. <p>Host Scott McNulty with Liz Myles and James Thomson.</p>
Star Trek: Discovery S1E2 Review: "Battle at the Binary Stars" (TeeVee 302)
We’re back to discuss the second episode of “Star Trek: Discovery!” Burnham has to deal with her mutinous actions. We get too many Klingons, including a flashback. Ensign Head Wound meets a confused end. Sarek sends a long-distance mental pep talk. And Captain Georgiou meets the fate of all Special Guest Stars. Onward to the dark Starfleet chamber of justice! <p>Host Scott McNulty with Brianna Wu and Jason Snell.</p>
Star Trek: Discovery S1E1 Review: "The Vulcan Hello" (TeeVee 301)
Hello, humans! A new Star Trek series has appeared and in this episode we review the one hour premiere of “Star Trek: Discovery.” We discuss the comportment of bridge officers, the “Star Trek: Shenzhou” prequel series we never saw, the appearance of the Star Trek Sound Effects pack, why Vulcans are kind of jerks, and the validity of using small caps in your caption font. And much, much more! (Note: This episode only contains spoilers for the very first hour of “Star Trek: Discovery.” In fact, we made a point of recording it immediately after viewing. In our next episode we’ll discuss the second hour.) <p>Host Scott McNulty with Jason Snell and Aleen Simms.</p>
