i want to know too
They said in the episode that every time the red angel time travels it gives the evil AI the chance to travel too. I'm assuming the AI infected their ship like infected the robot in the previous episode.
this one and the last one. . the writers are just showing off at this point ...they had us right were they wanted us

Interesting thing about Airiam. There were two actresses who played her, the original(sara mitich)got replaced for season 2 by Hannah Cheeseman. This new Airiam who just got killed had some new character take over her station and thats the og actress for Airiam, Sara Mitich. Same job but no spending hours in the make up chair.
It appears the AI is inside the computer on the Section 31 ship and it also appears it implanted something (itself?) inside Leeland because he wasn't killed.
I really like this iteration of Star Trek; first of all because for once the main character isn't the captain (not yet). The first season was bumpy and I'm still not sure about the look of the Klingons, but whatever.
The one thing I can not stand in both seasons is that her love interest is a fucking arab. Man, that shit makes me cringe every damn time. Add to that I don't think he's a very good actor.
I'll also be sorry to see Anson Mount go; he's really good as Pike. We hardly saw Mystique as Number One so her departure I don't really mind so much.
So, if Pike is going back to the Enterprise, does that mean Burnham gets the helm of Discovery?
Maybe. I can think of two scenarios where he wouldn't be captain and stays aboard. What I can't decide is if I like Burnham better not being captain. If Saru gets the chair he's sure to make her number one. Maybe that's better story-wise.
Its better if she isn't captain. What makes her interesting is that she's always running off cause she's always right about shit. If shes captain she can't run off all the time.
Yes, I'm leaning that way too. But she does so much shit to "save the Federation" she's almost got to get some kind of promotion.
The Federation is paramount
Whatcha mean, b?
They keep messing with the timeline and AI they’re going to create the Borg
I just finished watching season 1 and I am not sure I will continue. It was decent but it could have been so much more. I wish the networks just stop with all of the bullshit attempts at programming the masses. No strong black men, check; faggot black man, check; faggot cac, check; strong black sister falling for goofy throat bearded cac... It ruins the show with all of this contrived bullshit.
Awwwwwwwwww shit.
The word for the day is pastiche.
To say nitpicking implies that the writers are trying their best to adhere to canon and any inconsistencies are just minor mistakes by people trying to do their best. This is not true. The writers are deviating from canon on purpose, not by mistake.
Alex Kurtzman, the showrunner for Discovery has said "after 50-plus years it’s literally impossible to stay entirely consistent with canon" and "the best version of the story needs to be the driver". We'll come back to this in a second.
Robert Meyer Burnett who has made the bonus features for TNG's bluray set, who has Discovery scripts that haven't been released, and most importantly knows people who are making the show has said, "The people that are making this stuff now don't care" "they want to make a good TV show" "but they don't care what canonical Star Trek is, they are making their own show".
They are going to follow canon until it conflicts with the story that they want to tell, when it conflicts with canon the story which "needs to be the driver" wins.
No matter how much people like it, no matter how much better it is than other sci fi shows, it is not canon.
Burnett did an hour long interview here:
I can't take it anymore. Somebody is crying damn near every episode. They need to call this shit season Cry Trek 2: The Search For Tears
I want that star trek fur bomber jacket Pike had on. Shit was nice.
