- Although Jonathan Frakes is the best director of Star Trek episodes, I see flaws in his latest attempt. I also have some news about StarFleet Academy. Please Like and subscribe. Thanks.

The Oldest Nerd is a bit feisty today, but I agree.
+@zero_elevation One can get tired of formulaic writing. Sadly, it is the currency of series television.
Feisty yes--but I like it too! Spot on comments about the how the show can pick the most ridiculous, stressed filled moments to get sappy or maudlin or philosophical or find a place to shed a tear during a teachable moment! The All Access Trek podcast was talking about the impending marriage of Saru... and I have a feeling they will stage a quiet ceremony in the intervening 33 seconds after the Breen fire a super weapon--but before it explodes. Just a nice quiet ceremony in the 33 seconds it takes to reach Discovery. Two more things! As Scotty might say, I couldna stand the moment (in the previous episode) when Tilly has to be talked into not leaving her command and going back to HQ to cuddle her cadets AS the Breen ship comes to the Fed HQ. As one commenter on Reddit said, "It's like she's some sort of at-will worker all of a sudden." What happened to.. I don't know... following orders during Pearl Harbor-like attack on Fed HQ?? And I hated that Micheal made Rayner LEAVE the room when he made strong (but logical and COMMON SENSE) points about how deadly the Breen are. I hate it when Star Trek refuses to define evil AS evil. It all started with the Crystalline Entity in TNG. "Oh it was just a misunderstanding that the sweet crystal tree ate all of the colonists!" Which brings us back to Disco--because that was the whole misguided point of season 4... when the hungry planet people eaters didn't realize they ate Book's planet. "So sorry--we thought your planet was a bowl of Cap'n Crunch!" Arg! All that said... this season has been MUCH better than that. BUT--I still have to watch the finale.
Your absolutley right...
+@Article14Section31 Thanks
Thanks ON absolutely agree with all your points. They were bugging me also. Especially Tilly on the bridge in a crisis pulling the captain aside to for that speech. Also every time Adria says anything everyone claps like it’s the best thing they ever heard. That said it’s still the best season so far
+@nicholasgendreau1297 Agreed.
5:35 Holly Hunter has had lots of great roles - another Coen Brothers film she stars in is the great Raising Arizona, as a cop who falls in love with a crook and kidnaps a baby. Of course she was also Elastigirl in The Incredibles
+@torenatkinson1986 Oh yeah, we could name films she’s been in all night, and not one was a bad performance. I hope she is not used like Michelle Yeoh and is killed in the first episode.
0:50 this happens noticeably often in the series and it's one of the things that turned me off. If you're having a conversation at the same time you're doing something important, that's one thing, but to stop in the middle of a crisis and have a chat, that snaps my suspenders of disbelief.
+@torenatkinson1986 Mine too. I like the metaphor.
The Holly Hunter news is the first time I've been optimistic about Starfleet Academy, especially with the info that it's Tilly centric, hopefully that's not going to be the case. BTW, I think Hunter's best role was another Coen brothers movie - Raising Arizona.
+@everettharris967 Yes. That was way back. She is brilliant in playing rural characters.
Hello I Just Finished Watching the Star trek Discovery Season 5 Series Finale Titled Life Itself It was Most Interesting, I can't Believe Discovery is Over.
+@danielshottopics8187 All good things…
There is a symbiote? 😆 DISCO does bring out the salty in a lot of us! Life is but a dream.
+@davesgeektrek Darmok and Gielod on the water.
Thanks man....think I'll pass on this series.
This is exactly what happened to Picard S2 (and really 1 also). Well sis, we have an impossible gauntlet to cross with only a sharpened stick and a banana... we're not going to make it. Hey where's Picard??? Don't know...oh he's having psychotherapy in the basement of the spooky chateau....
However he'll make it to the big fight magically when he's finished angsting
Hey the two women made it too...no explanation.
+@STho205 lol
Let’s know what you really think lol. Unfortunately it is typically Discovery the writing has always been it’s downfall. Not that this was a terrible episode far from it but I hope they get better writers for Academy.
+@trevorwhite915 I like Frakes. He directs action like no other. So they want to write in love scenes. I loved the rest of the episode.
Logic ? What is this Logic? This is Disco there is no Logic ! only feelings and crying !
+@mrtrent100 Logic is a pretty flower that smells bad.
But that's what Discovery is and has always been. Overall I have enjoyed this series.
But Frakes makes a great episode.
I think it's sad that Paramount didn't do anything with Terry and make a new series.
+@joey_cordova_ Agreed. I like Frakes and his direction is always top notch. I guess the intimate scenes could have been done before the time was short, while they were getting Saru’s ship ready, in that 10 minutes before the away teams got on the shuttle. It would at least made more sense.
