Again, I thought this mostly was above-par for the series but not great in any absolute sense. Saying that, magical spore vision quest was too dumb for me to overlook -- it's not that it was a bit magic (Star Trek has always had that...) but that it broke my suspension and to me it properly felt like they were just making stuff up.
Have a feeling it's a set up either a genuinely good or a thoroughly shite next episode -- interested to see which it'll be, at least.

Didn't look like him.
There seems to be a lot of eating other sapient beings going on in this show, the Klingons ate Giorghiu after they killed her in ep1.

Enjoyed it again this week. Really want to see where it's going next week.

That last episode was just nonsensical. Saying that, I will probably tune in again next week. It's like a strange type of stockholm syndrome.
The Klingons are still utterly gooseberry fool in this. They haven't done a good job with them at all.

I think if they had just straight up cut the
mushroom vision quest plot-line and spent a little longer on
the empress and
Mirror Lorca it would have been a solid ep.
I actually liked Saru manning up and just
beaming Tyler into the cell with whatshername Klingon girl. Thought it was both a badass idea and still believable from Saru.

Saru kind of reminds me of Data.
Both are usually calm and collected but can be a badass if the situation requires it.

I suspect that’s not the last we’ve seen of him, Wrathy.
That criticism aside(I agree with it), I thought the last episode was really good. I’ve enjoyed the whole season - it’s not without its flaws but it has been good, compelling TV.

I thought this week's episode was absolutely dire. Literally made no sense, some of the worst fight scenes I have seen and an utterly appalling attempt at an allegory on the current political situation. It was cringeworthy.

Is that the same fight scenes hat have been getting nearly universal praise?
