      First of all, death to the traitor Kurtzman of course. But just like the hated Rick Berman before him, I don't think he can really ruin Trek as a whole.

          Yes that's the guy. He also created gold pressed latinum because he refused to believe or understand the concept of a post-scarcity post-capitalism economy. Which is why I especially appreciated Boimler extremely obviously not giving a shit about latinum during the Cerritos' visit to DS9.

              That jab was too subtle for me, it slipped right by. Do you remember which episode it was?

                  I love how Freeman is absolutely her daughter's mother, with her own occasional snarky comments about Starfleet and Federation leadership, and an instinct for morality over legality. I can't remember the exact episode but there was a great scene in a turbolift with her and Ransom where she's grumbling about "Starfleet's policy of some interference" when it hamstrings her from ethical actions.

                  I also love how Freeman's job as captain of a California-class ship is hinted at over the seasons as being a result of Freeman's own rebellious streak, and not any sort of incompetence. When push comes to shove Freeman is a damn good captain. The apple didn't fall far from the tree.
