She could of run when the phaser was on overload “No, i cant. If this is important to you i cant” But yes at the end of the day she stayed. Whats really weird is how at the end how gracious the Talosians are to her and Pike. But…aliens. Alien values ---

Well, I finally finished the season. I _loved_ it. Best Star Trek season since maybe season 2 of TOS, if you just counted the ten best episodes of that season (there are always going to be stinkers when you have to crank out 23 eps per season). I recently watched Balance of Terror again, and that made this episode quite fun. It was full of easter eggs and dialog from BOT, slightly tweaked for the new situation. Hearing Scotty’s voice was a hoot: I wonder if Hemmer is going to be replaced by Scottie next season, and that’s the new actor’s voice. If so, it’s a dead on impersonation. One disappoinment: the new Romulan commander was no Mark Lenard. Really looking forward to season 2. ---

This is a cool side by side of this episode and the original **Balance of Terror** from TOS. A lot of it was a shot-for-shot remake of the original, right down to camera angles and lighting effects, with Pike in the Kirk role. And Spock and Uhura act more like the original actors. All in all, a real labor of love and tribute to the original.

If only they had hired the same actor who played Sarek in Discovery. ---

I just watched all of Strange New Worlds. I immediately have to rate this as the second best series and closest to the Original Series. Really excellent and well done. I’m in season one of Discovery and it is not great. Episode 1 of Picard was actually terrible. Lower Decks is very fun though. Of the 80s and 90s shows, only Deep Space 9 wasn’t meh. ---

I thought Season 1 was promising and then it pretty much went downhill from there. The Burn plot was excruciating and made me give up on the show. I couldn’t even finish Season 2 of Picard. Season 1 was shaky, but Season 2—what I watched of it—was intolerable. ---

Holy cow, Carol Kane looks about 50 or less in that photo. She’s 70. Any guesses as to what the insignia on her uniform represent? The starfleet ‘A’ has what looks like a Klingon or some other symbol on it, and I don’t recognize the other pin. ---

I’m sure Kane will be terrific, but I’m very annoyed that they killed of Hemmer, who was a really great character.
