What a way to start the season! I love that they're leaning hard into the TOS vibe.
There's a lot to pick apart if you really wanted to, but frankly it's hard for me to get hung up on minutae when the characters and universe are so spot on. Some good starship porn in there too. What an adventure! Gene would be more than happy with this one I think.
If they had super-soldier drugs the whole time why didn't they use them against the gorn or any other combat that occurred in season 1?
my presumption is that M'Benga has it, and it's his personal supply, that would be at best frowned upon, at worst, illegal for him to have.
Maybe its use is prohibited in the federation and they only had access due to being on the extremists' ship?
I mean I've been thinking that about the entire genetic modification thing, even last season.
Can we talk about that weird camera roll during the M’Benga / Chapel fight scene? Usually thats done when gravity is changing, but here the camera flipped, they went through a hatch to a lower level, then the camera rolled over again. What was that all about?
