World Enough and Time was good. Borrows from both Times Orphan (feral Molly O'Brien) and Timeless (Chakotay and Harry Kim are the only ones to make it home) but runs with it. It helps to have someone of Takei’s calibre on this. The actress that played his alternate daughter reminded me a lot of Rosario Dawson. She had charisma. The effects have really shaped up too and they’re trying some new shots. A long way from come what may.

Aside from Takei, Grace Lee Whitney shoed up as Rand for the Excelsior segment and Majel Barrett did a bit of computing

Uhura

“Shouldn’t you send me candy and flowers first?” cheeky bastard.

I guess this is as close as we’ll get to a Sulu series.

Well aside from the comics, novels, audio books, that one voyager ep.

Again those stupid Italian ribbed turtleneck that no one can find or reproduce…

Oh and the next episode features George Takei in a Sulu Timewarp. Probably watch it later tonight

This episode really superior to the first two. Walter Koenig brings a lot of depth to his role while Andy Bray who plays his younger self and his inner voice later is a good counterpoint to him.

The episode has a significant improvement too, in which they now have their own music, rather than sourcing previous episodes (or in some cases the TMP and BoBW sountracks). The fact that it’s adapted from an old D.C. Fontana script brings a lot of polish to the episode.

The ending is good but of course leaves some real awkward questions, there’s a cheesy alternate ending too.

They did a good job making Chris Pike’s injuries look creepy.

That awkward moment when someone steals your car and leaves you a shuttle craft
