"Burn The Boats" is a Funeral for Joe Rogan's Comedy Career

Well, at least Scott Grimes is reporting that The Orville begins production on season 4 in January.

Are they trying to kill Star Trek?

Bob Newhart was funny right up until the end. I saw him do a show with Conan a few years ago, and he was still sharp and funny as ever, even into his 90s. RIP

I miss these guys who just brought pure positivity with them everywhere they went. A kind that it feels like we're always losing and rarely gaining. RIP

I finished season 2 of Prodigy. The fact that this kind of incredibly complex, dense, and overtly technical writing is intended for a younger audience is a big surprise. The biggest downside of this show is the the fact the crew is a group of misfit kids who keep turning back to goofy kid humor. But if you set that aside, you're left with a core of excellent, ambitious, classic Star Trek. Prodigy is an Epilogue to Voyager in many ways, and could easily be rewritten as "The Search for Chakotay", who is lost in both space and time. The legacy characters are all on point, and Chakotay in particular gets some of his best moments as a character ever. I don't want to ruin too much, but on top of being a Voyager epilogue, the series also ties into Picard extremely well, and has cameos from other legacy Trek (Especially one major loose end.) They make some big impacts on the Canon, including the establishment of one particular plot device that I'm still trying to process whether I love or hate. I might label Prodigy "required Trek viewing", and I only wish this kind of writing had been reserved for a more 'serious' presentation.

If got a lot better toward the end. Season two is really taking ambitious swings at the nature of the canon with a lot of legacy cameos. I'm still working my way through it.

Started watching through season 2 of Prodigy on Netflix. Amazing how they make a kids show orders of magnitude better than Discovery.
-
Kind of Underwhelming. They didn't ruin everything with some colossal display of ridiculousness (e.g The Burn); but it was very much the opposite. They didn't take risks, they just ran out the clock. This season's MacGuffin was built up too high, and the delivery at the end left me wanting. The conclusion of the character arcs left me wanting. It was a safe ending, but largely unsatisfying. On the whole; it was still, by a wide margin, the best season of Discovery. They ultimately landed it safely, but zero style points.

Not dead yet.

If they can stick the landing on the final two episodes, I will say that this has been the first actual good season of Discovery. Not great, mind you, but certainly enjoyable. If they can stick the landing.

Let's go WOLVES!

It's still DISCO. It's not great Star Trek, but at least they seem to have gotten the memo that the Star Trek canon is a huge asset, and that they don't need to buck against it constantly.
