On snap, all my childhood Christmas money went to Pocket Books for STNG novels. I’ll never forget the smell of the brand new glue and ink. May the Great Bird fertilize your planet with the finest guanos, S&S.
As someone who is not into musical episodes (nothing against musicals, just it’s not my thing, if I wanted to watch a musical I’d watch… a musical?), it wasn’t too painful to watch.
The Klingon segment made me howl with laughter though, and although musical episodes aren’t my bag, I love how free this season has been in terms of exploring new ideas in each episode.
I enjoyed the episode. I liked that it wasn’t just “a musical episode” but they acknowledged that it was unusual and expressed concern about it. They didn’t pretend that everyone singing was normal like in a typical musical.
Yeah, they found a sciencey way to explain it that imo was satisfying enough. It’s nice to have fun episodes so it’s not all grim and serious, knowing what’s probably waiting for Pike! Also a nice opportunity for some of the cast to show off their other talents, Christina Chong has an incredible voice.
I also liked Mark Twain (I know) when I first saw TNG because as a young Canadian I had no idea who he was. It made me read a bit more about the person and his work.
Apparently it’s common to forget about him, since since the crew of the Enterprise did the same for a few years, until he had to remind them of his existence.
