Amazing. He manages to make it obvious that he's doing nothing other than trying to suck up to the far right. And he does so in a way that just makes him look a complete and utter prat in general. ๐คฆ๐ผโโ๏ธ๐คฆ๐ผโโ๏ธ๐ #KeirStarmer #Flags #Labour #ReformUK

3/3 I think they wanted to do a satirical/ light hearted spin on this, but just ended up making it cringe inducing & offensive, because the whole "write & perform beings socially awkward" plan went overboard. Not willingly. But still doing so none the less. Hopefully 9& 10 will be better

2/ If the Season was longer it would work far better. R.e Ep 8? I think that they knew that Spock and Vulcans in general (along with the likes of Data in TNG, ODO in DS9 and Seven in VOY) have been characters that neurodivergent can identify with.
Baz (@bazblackadder.bsky.social) reply parent
"Don't get me wrong, you can have funny, silly episodes, but not in a 10-episode arc" Exactly! The ratio of serious, gritty, possibly dark episodes to humorous escapist ones is too poor In Season 3, eps 1, 3, 5 & 6 were great with richer plots. The others (so far) were farcical by comparison 1/

4/ 4 So, with only 10 season episodes in total, the ratio of light hearted/ comical to dramatic, serious and social commentary issues themes was a bit off. #StarTrekSNW #StrangNewWorlds
Baz (@bazblackadder.bsky.social) reply parent
3/ Neurodivergent people have always identified with characters like Spock, Data or Seven, due to the kind of traits & mannerisms they exhibit. So I can see why they have felt it a bit more mocking than comic relief in nature 3.2 and 3.4 also deviated away from the grittier themes of other eps
Baz (@bazblackadder.bsky.social) reply parent
2/ The story tried to make humour out of it but went OTT resulting in something a bit more farcical than totally harmless parody.
Baz (@bazblackadder.bsky.social) reply parent
I also think that Episode 8 is taking a bit too much flack. Though I can understand why people might have been frustrated by it. My take is that it tried be parody the Trek franchise itself. Vulcans have always been seen as socially awkward. 1/

Sweetheart, it's a historical fact that LGBT people were targeted in the Holocaust. hmd.org.uk/learn-about-... It's not "debunked nonsense" And posting a random picture doesn't prove that LGBT were all Nazis. Your propogandizing, gaslighting skills are embarrassingly feeble.

So, "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds" S3.E8 'Four and a half Vulcans' Another fun, quirky & goofy episode. Just wish this season was longer than 10 eps because the gritty, intense and complex episodes, & more light hearted ones, are disproportionate to each other #StarTrek #StrangeNewWorlds #SNW
Baz (@bazblackadder.bsky.social) reply parent
The only real gripe I have with the more goofy and quirky/ comical episodes this season is that the overall season run is only 10 episodes in total. They're fun and certainly an enjoyable watch. But just too disproportionate to more serious plots and storyarcs. I misss the days 20+ ep seasons.
