This was incredible and everything I could have hoped that it would be. 11/10, no notes.

The only thing I wished was for the Enterprise crew to have been in TAS style art animation at the end. But yeah. Great show!

Still kind of hoping that one year they do a "Trials and Tribble-Ations" tribute episode where they go back to the Enterprise during TAS and splice in the LD guys in in the TAS style.

They could call it "Those Animated Scientists"

"Animated?"

"Yeah, you know, they were kind of stiff back then, so I call them that ironically."

[–] Manabi@startrek.website 5 points 1 year ago

I loved all of it! I liked how they had fun with the crew being in the 2D Lower Decks style at the end, poking fun at it with the dialogue. Then they blamed it on the drinks, so it wasn't really a fourth wall break.

I have only one note: no live action Tendi or Rutherford :(

Otherwise: yes, excellent.

Yeah such a shame we didn't get the whole Beta shift gang, but that's like my absolute biggest "criticism" of the episode
