I loved her portrayal of the totally ruthless and super-competent Empress Georgiou, trapped in the wrong universe and still raising Hell everywhere she goes, Michelle Yeoh absolutely killed it with her performance. Also, she was given great lines: "Easy is boring and I hate boring!" Also, it has to be said that I think this version of Georgiou and Michael Burnham were a much better match than Burnham and Captain Georgiou. Burnham had the Captain as her mentor, yes, but in the end she made such bad calls the Captain ended up gutted aboard a Klingon ship. The Empress understood Burnham far better and was much better at forcing Burnham to walk a straight line and THINK as opposed to acting in what she believed was the right way. Burnham was really the foster daughter the Empress never really got with the Burnham she knew from the Terran universe corrupted by Lorca from the beginning. They were so good for each other... I just wish she and Nhan had more scenes together, those two had great chemistry and did a fantastic job of tag-teaming Leland/Control the one time they really got to work together.
Between Michelle Yeoh's scenes in Discovery, and the Mirror Universe episodes from DS9, Enterprise and Discovery, all I can think is one thing... Why in the Nine Hells of Hades has Paramount not green-lit a "Star Trek: Terrans" series set fully in the Mirror Universe?! That would be so ridiculously badass - the idea of no "good guys" on any side of the story, yet all the major characters are still human, with all the human flaws and baggage. Total missed opportunity....
@@HierophanticRose W40K is similar, but it's really not The Mirror Universe. The DS9 and Discovery episodes were something all their own that I don't think anything else has ever come near - characters which were simultaneously total evil yet still likable, in a strange and twisted way.
@@HierophanticRose The 40K human people are fundamentally trying to be good. Like a soldier in 40k would risk his life trying to burn someone he thinks is a witch to death. (It would most likely not be a woman because many planets in that universe are run by like sexist planetary monarchs or whatnot.) The huamns in 40K have a kind of messed up medieval era superstitious view of the world mixed with a Victorian era Oliver Cromwell like obsession with laws and moral purity. In their universe it makes a limited amount of sense because their galactic feudal society is the only society that emerged following a 10,000 year long from a galactic societal breakdown only to get messed up agsin during the rebuilding. Also most of the alien species in that universe are just the ones violent or clever enough to survive the constant ethnic cleansing done by the Necrons and Orks and there are interdimensional beings with Q like powers that resemble mythological demons. Meanwhile the Mirror Universe humans have no excuse. They're just a race similar to ours except they evolved to be selfish assholes focused only on power and self-survival. Like the Cardassians, Romulans and Klingons of the Mirror are peace-loving enlightened people. Also when the Mirror universe Vulcans first touched down to investigate the first human warp flight, instead of trying to make peace the Mirror universe humans just murdered the bening Vulcan explorers instead.
I’m so mad that she is not part of the show anymore. Honestly, she was the best character, I mean others are good but she was the best. Why? Why?😫😫😫😫😫😫😫
I actually really thought the moment should’ve Williams was when she had this really cute smile whilst walking at the Klingon baby and then a soon as I looked around, she stopped LOL that was awesome
nah it was just inserted modern politic cringe,also shes from the evil darkly world? makes sense cause that degen stuff is demonic. and there is nothing progressive about it...its regressive and destructive to a society.
Academy Award Winner Michelle Yeoh (God, I love saying that) is such a terriffic actor. Even at 61, this woman is so damn beautiful. The sexiest she's ever been in her life...and I am saying that as a proud gay man. She seriously makes me contemplate bisexuality. And still doing her stunt work! God! Amazing! I can barely get out of bed without something cracking! lol
Something about the terran universe supremacy made it that regardless of gender Emperor is supreme title given to the Pinnacle of the Terran Empire. I hear the backstory gets explained more in Section 31 movie.
Holy CRAP! I just thought of something. Could Micheal Burham be the time-displaced child of Captain Cassedy Yates and (wait for it) Captain Benjimen Sicko?! Could the end [?] of Discovery be her finding out that her father is the Emissary and he is the reason that she is displaced in time altering the original timeline? The Wormhole Aliens do not know of linear time and the Bajoran System seems to have a rather interesting relationship with the Star Trek 'Dark' Universe-more so than any other place in the galaxy.
🤔I know it's a bad ideal,🤨 and I would probably get killed😵 some time during the night😴, But I would like to spend the night with the Emperor Philippa Georgiou or just Philippa Georgiou 😏 For only just one night😁
agreed,thought id give it a fair shake of late so watched this to give me a taste,the MEN BAD! then ranting on about gays and pansexuals outta nowhere while discusing time travel shit....its so degen and forced like they was told to tick box it in for the sake of it,you can tell it was written by a californian nu male.....ill be avoiding this show for its perverted filth.
And yet you trouble yourself to rewatch scenes on TH-cam and comment on it. Just admit you secretly love the show (as I do) but your puny classic-Trek mind won’t allow you to admit it publicly (like me) lol
You do know you're watching star trek right? It's always been "woke" in one way or another since its inception. I may not find it to my tastes personally but come on, if you don't like it don't watch it or expose yourself to it.
@@jack1701e yes, i clearly understand that part, but the storyline was more important and cognitive well made nowadays is the other way around but hey it’s not my fault the “progressives” always eat their own and shoot them selves in the foot in the end
@@jack1701e and i remember very well the balance in everything, this is taken to the extreme of radical feminism, all female ghostbusters didn’t work not because of women , but the lack of respect and balance in a well stablished franchise

🖖🏻
That's mouthful...
For the empire!
Humanity First
All hail the empress.
Michelle Yeoh is a fantastic actor. She brings greatness to every character.
From Miss Malaysia to starfleet captain and then Emperor in star trek LOL
You could see how much fun she had playing this role. I felt happy for her every time she smiled on camera.
She is from Malaysia.
"We had DEFCON levels of fun"
Oh boy, how many planets were set on fire with THEIR lovemaking I wonder?
At least eight
🤣
Sexuality is so different in the Mirror Universe that a certain Ferengi desparately wanted to return to the Prime Universe.
@@allentchang which ferengi?
@@Shinzon23 Rom, when he met the mirror counterpart of his wife Leeta. The mirror Leeta looked very keen to "de-brief" Ezri.
Mirror Universe Georgiou was foreshadowing to Michelle Yeoh's performance in Everything Everywhere All at Once.
Michelle Yeoh was so good in this role
I don’t understand why would they cut her character off? She was the best part of the show😫😫😫😫
@@markjacob9497 Because she deserves her own show...?
@@markjacob9497 Precisely because she was the best part of the whole thing.

That giggle as she kills Leland…creepy.
The empresses body language is such good story telling. When she looks at a person it’s like looking a meat at the supermarket.
when she was looking at Stamets & the rest if the room, you know who's the lion there and who are the zebras and wild dogs.
The face Burnam made when the Empress shot her on laser tag setting was hilarious.
I love that Phillipa managed to get redemption, I really hope we get to see more of her in the new season
Same!!
The show runners said last year she isn't coming back to Discovery, but we'll be getting a spinoff of her time with Section 31!
After her sendoff, that'll be a little difficult. Can't say I get why they decided to write her out.
@@bjwessels because she's supposed to be heading up a spinoff
Loved her "And now... I would like to hear you... SCREAM." That was a novelty for Star Trek xD
YOu can see her fluid skill in fights far out shines her cast mates
There is no shortcut, lots of training shows.
Oh absolutely and everything else she did was just better she made a bad show watchable

Emperor Georgiou's scariest martial arts move... " Cobra Smile"
The Emperor is the only one in the Discovery main cast who could possibly fistfight equally with Control, both figuratively and literally.
Having watched every trek series, Discovery is my favorite.
And Georgieu is my favorite all time character. Saru is up in the top as well.
you are mentally ill if you watched all the other treks and think this is better than them all
@@random_an0nstfu people have the right to choose
Great job on the editing! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

One of the proposed ideas for season 5 of Star Trek Enterprise (before it's cancellation) was for the entire season set in the Terran Empire universe.

The fact that the Terrans conquered all in their universe and she's the emperor of the terran empire should speak volumes.
Michelle Yeoh was so good in Star Trek Discovery!
Cannot wait for the Section 31 movie 🖤
5:11 this line is perfect for rupaul drag race lipsync "have u considered medication?"..... mama so effin'fierce!!! 😍😍😍
and thats why disco has the lowest ratings out of all the treks.......
Many congratulations to the lovely and very talented Michelle Yeoh for winning her first ever Golden Globe award. Well deserved 👏
And now Oscar nominee
And now Oscar winner
Giorgiu was the BEST character in ST: Discovery
You missed the part where she suggested making a star go supernova
The badass to rule all badassess.
That first scene is how I imagine a Special Circumstances agent might make an entrance.
This was excellent! SSSSSSSS🐍
Michelle Yeoh is a top tier actor. And Discovery's writers really knew how to write for her! She had the best lines
Long live the Empire.
Is it messed up that my favorite characters are actually evil mirror universe characters: Emperor Georgiou and Captain Lorca?
Same! And Saru
I've just started watching Discovery and I'm on season 2. I love sexy evil Philippa Georgiou 😂
The scene with stamits and the doctor with tilly was the most funny scene I have ever seen with Giorgio.
at first she irritated him and then she scared the hell out of him back to irritating him
Did you just call me papi?
I’m so mad that she is not part of the show anymore. Honestly, she was the best character, I mean others are good but she was the best. Why? Why?😫😫😫😫😫😫😫
mama is now oscar best actress cos she a badass alien 😍😍😍
Michelle Yeoh always seems to be universe hopping in either a television series or a movie
Audio is a bit glitches?
I actually really thought the moment should’ve Williams was when she had this really cute smile whilst walking at the Klingon baby and then a soon as I looked around, she stopped LOL that was awesome
space kungfu brilliantly purrrrrformed by mama 😍😍😍
I can't wait for her movie!
I love you my Emperor
This should have been the season 1 starting story. The whole Michael thing is just ridiculous.
I love Michelle yeoh ♥️♥️
WHERE CAN I WATCH THIS?
Love it
while starfleet engineers can turn rocks into replicators, terran emperors can turn anything into an agonizer
Lol true!
The best in Discovery is all in this where doesn´t appears Burnham. In the future I like a Star Trek series with an antiheroe captain, as Georgiou.
Let's not forget that a guy invented the spore drive from the ground up
Michelle Yeoh played a cold-blooded anti-heroine in Butterfly and Sword(1993).
“Don’t be so binary”
Ladies and gentlemen and Non-binary pals, Star Trek is the ideal future in terms of progressive society!
nah it was just inserted modern politic cringe,also shes from the evil darkly world? makes sense cause that degen stuff is demonic.
and there is nothing progressive about it...its regressive and destructive to a society.
- How is she an emperor, and not an empress?
Maybe because in East Asia, the title of emperor is gender indeterminate unless one adds a modifier to emphasize that the emperor is a female.
Academy Award Winner Michelle Yeoh (God, I love saying that) is such a terriffic actor.
Even at 61, this woman is so damn beautiful. The sexiest she's ever been in her life...and I am saying that as a proud gay man.
She seriously makes me contemplate bisexuality.
And still doing her stunt work! God! Amazing! I can barely get out of bed without something cracking! lol
She is really good and dominant at this role🎉🎉🎉
Shouldn't it be Empress though?
What I don't know is why they call her emperor instead of empress. Somebody care explain it?
Something about the terran universe supremacy made it that regardless of gender Emperor is supreme title given to the Pinnacle of the Terran Empire. I hear the backstory gets explained more in Section 31 movie.
@AfroFreeman I see. It still sounds wierd though. And emperor is the same as empress only that's actually the female equivalent.
The empires version of tilly was much more fun.when repressed tilly had to act in the role it was like she was finally unleashed.
♥️♥️♥️
I LOVE Michelle Yeoh

... 🙄
bad audio clicks around 5 minutes in
When humans are more Klingon than Klingon.
Startrek Discovery really went downhill after Georgiou left.
star trek discovery went downhill the second it aired lol
This TV show does not deserve the name Star Trek.
Totally agree.
Georgiou is a naughty goddess!
Best of '? In star trek discovery. I believe this confirms such a thing is not in 3xistance
Clem Fandango what you doing here?
🤔I know it's a bad ideal,🤨 and I would probably get killed😵 some time during the night😴, But I would like to spend the night with the Emperor Philippa Georgiou or just Philippa Georgiou 😏 For only just one night😁
