Here's what I normally do here:
When new episodes of #StarTrek (#StarTrekSNW will be next in 6 weeks) are airing, I go through the episodes and point out Easter eggs, callbacks, bloopers, visual connections, starships, languages - stuff I like. I start posting spoilery stuff on Fridays usually.
Legally blind Strange New Worlds actor Bruce Horak (Hemmer) had news earlier this spring that I somehow missed:
- a crowdfunded documentary is being made about his ‘Boldly going’ as a disabled actor and visual artist
- he met with William Shatner, who has agreed for Bruce to paint his portrait. (Bruce paints as he sees with his very limited vision in one eye.)
Here’s a report from CTV from his hometown of Calgary filed in March.
“And he says he’s an example of how DEI works – for everyone.
“When you design for disability, everyone benefits,” he said, pointing out that phone texting started as something to assist the hearing-impaired and now it’s for everyone.”

Trek People !
Is there a confirmed air date (or even date range) for Star Trek Strange New World Season 3 yet please?
Am in dire need of some hopeful fictional diversions..
Here's a comparison of the #StarTrek universe bumper clip, seen at the beginning of #StarTrekSNW episodes ⬅️ and the mirrored version, featuring the garbage scow, as seen before #StarTrekSection31 ➡️.
A new Star Trek adventure based on the thrilling Paramount+ TV seriesStar Trek: Strange New …
I loved seeing how Chris Pike and Una Chin-Riley meet and become friends. The problems she's facing during her time at the academy, the guilt she carries, and how that catches up on her during the Enterprise's current mission is all wonderfully woven together. I loved seeing some of the SNW crew as well, especially one member was fun as always. More of them please! The new species we meet and its history and situation are very interesting and I liked everything about it. Very current, very important. Una McCormack does, once again, not disappoint. Could she ever?! As always, I recommend her interview about this book on the Literary Treks podcast. Edit: And here‘s her interview with Positively Trek.

Of course, if you're stuck on earth in the past, you look up Pelia. It'd be the first thing I'd do. In fact, can we please have a series of Pelia stories throughout history? Omg, they would be soooo cool! #PeliaAsTimeLord #StarTrekSNW #StarTrekStrangeNewWorlds
Here's what I did with my weekend. Still some finishing to do tomorrow, but it's coming together.
I'm really pleased with how the laser etching came out on the sleeves and shoulders (it took a lot of work, please clap).

The one thing that disappointed me in season 2, was the Christine Chapel / Spock arc.
First they are pining for each other for ages, then finally they get together, but we never really see another scene with them, before two episodes later their relationship already starts falling apart and not much later ends unceremoniously for pretty weak reasons? What was going on there? Did I miss something?

I am loving #StrangeNewWorlds's wraparound windows on the edge of the Enterprise saucer. They look great in the sets, they're immediately identifiable on the exterior, and we get those lovely tracking shots in and out.

Freaking awesome.
- I 1000% teared up when Boimer said the slogan on Una's recruitment poster. The only nitpick I have - which has nothing to do with the episode itself - is that the poster the Paramount+ social media team released after the “Ad Astra Per Aspera” episode doesn't match the animated one, which I didn't realize had been released until now.
- "But I wonder...if, someday, you're not around anymore, how many people on this ship would wish they had another day to talk to you?" 😭
- One of the things I'm loving about SNW is Pike. He hasn't been the focus of many episodes this season (was Anson Mount filming another project?), but he brings a certain je ne sais quoi even when he's in the background (like cooking for Spock's engagement dinner with T'Pring's family). I especially loved in this episode how he was so willing to be emotionally vulnerable with strangers who are also ship subordinates. Monita Mohan had a great article on Pike: https://collider.com/anson-mount-captain-pike-star-trek-masculinity-explained.
I can't wait to watch this episode again for all the Easter Eggs I missed the first time around.
