I think in the US we’re basically going to end up doing, while not the exact same thing, something similar. Probably in the name of combating “disinformation.”

There’s a grizzled old prospector reading this and getting VERY pissed rn

The Tendi thing gives them options. They can do something with that next season, or just revert to the norm if they’d rather have her back with the main cast.

Idk if it’s immoral or not, but if Disney is resorting to AI to keep the content slurry flowing that’s more a sign of growing creative bankruptcy than anything.

Six seasons and a movie 🙏

I always assume Nog is dead because Ira Steven Behr said he would kill him off on the first episode if DS9 got an eighth season

One of my big complaints in the earlier seasons was that the show wasn’t very funny for a comedy, but it’s actually getting better. The whole Ferengi tv thing was great.

The resolution to the Rutherford and Tendi subplot was interesting to me in that it made explicit the way that their easy familiarity with each other as best friends and coworkers is predicated on a blithe, willful obliviousness to any other romantic feelings between them. I’m curious to see how that plays out in future episodes.

Kinda surprised they’re doing this already.

Fines aren’t near enough at this point, we need public executions at a minimum to put a dent in this problem.

Another country with a lot of natural resources that isn’t run by a pliable monarchy? This is a job for America!

I was surprised they didn’t roll this out from the jump, I bet they could have gotten a lot more accounts to do it on the dl. But now everyone is pot committed to blue checks being cringe or not.
