6:13 I liked the opening too. Pike boldly lies to his superior about his relationship effecting his judgement: "It won't." I also loved that the line "Coming out of warp" came up right before "It won't" adding to the uncomfortable position of defying the Admiral. The Admiral seems to have forgotten that Starfleet is made up of people, not robots.
10:39 I just had flashbacks of Nick Frost in "Hyperdrive" where the crew got new weapons but had to navigate the EULA agreement before the weapons became active
9:47 Assuming that the star is near the same orbital band as the sun, it is moving about 200 KM per second. Assuming the line is fixed, if we wait a few seconds the system will no longer be in Gorn space. (On the Starfleet Galactic Map, stars near Gorn space are chasing after Sol on the galactic pinwheel.

What a wonderful way to end a Friday! My cake is crispy with bits of chocolate, and my tea has a bit more milk than needed. If Kyle were in the episode, it would be a perfect way to round off the season.
11:45 "Old Zombie movie trick." Could this be a reference to the sneaking scenes in "Shawn of the Dead?" Are there more Nick Frost movie references to come?
15:31 🎆🌠🎇Actually, I would have loved to have seen them use Chris Doohan Actually, this Scotty sounds more Scottish than the original, and that is coming from a Nova Scotia MacNeil. Yeah, my ancestors were Jacobites.
Yes! I felt the same way about the opening scene, all the way down to the Independence Day reference. Sometimes your commentary is so timely, with the same key words as lines of dialogue, that I feel like I could say to you as I do to my daughter, "You could write for this show!" How do you feel about the tweak to Scotty's characterization? I was excited by it. As long as they didn't make him too ingenious or somehow off-putting, I was in for the ride.
Also about the beginning, not only was the crashing shuttle a jarring effect, but it became part of the plot. I appreciated the tightness of the writing when it didn't add effects just for the sake of adding effects. However, the random flames that appear later on (13:14)... let me simply say that it was the low point of the show. Stop doing that SFX people!

14:55 Not only the sound, but the lights make them stick out like a carnival attraction

13:55 "We have bogies - plural - incoming " Kirk is the best!

3:25 They could say they are moons orbiting the larger Blue planet displayed to the side? And that DOES look like it's right out of T2!
