I could not get into the baby episode. The talking babies just put me off. Might have been scarier than the actual monster.

But the devil's cord was better. Great concept. Good mix of fun and serious and a nice follow up to the toy maker. I didn't feel it really made the most use of the beatles though, the maestro could have been in any time period with any musician. I was pleasantly surprised by the twist at the end.

RTD likes his recurring threads, so I guess the pantheon is going to anchor this series. So far we've had masters (gods?) of toys and music. What next - the different parts of what makes being human? Love? Food? And how does Ruby fit into it.

So far ncuti and millie are fitting in well. A bit different, bringing their own flair, but still capturing the right feel.

I was using it, but because it periodically did load fine I assumed I was just having network trouble. Thanks for fixing!

Answer wrong. The more of us humans that answer wrong, the less accurate we need to be to get past these stupid things. If google want me to do work for them, they can pay me.

Knife Rain? Wasn't expecting an adventure time reference on star trek, but I'll take it!

There's a lot of references linking back to nova squadron here, but I've got no idea how it all fits together. Looking forward to the finale.

More ascension stuff this episode. I wonder if that's ever going to be explored, or if it will only ever be left as a gag. It seems like the kind of thing that would be difficult to dig into in a satisfying way.

This is a good change. I think we could be in a much better place if companies that owned both production and streaming were more open about licensing.

Tendi just wanting to play in the sand is cute.

Boimler being completely fed up with the assignment is great - he knew exactly what he was walking into, but did it anyway (I'm glad it actually had payoff at the end).

Rutherford has finally resolved badgey, and seemingly learnt nothing.

I didn't feel like mariner had a whole lot to do in this episode, she just kind of tagged along.

To be honest, I could get behind fines for overrunning street works. Hell, go further: fines for any overrunning, underdelivering or overbudget public contracts. That would quickly resolve the mess that the torys have made giving out dodgy contracts to their mates.

It reminds of the kelpien-baul relationship from discovery. If they were from the same planet it would suggest that the betazed-caitian relationship resolved it self at an early stage of development and the kelpien-baul one didn't. Maybe the fact that betazoids are emphatic worked in their favour, and helped them to grow together.

Voyager used Bio neural circuitry / gel packs throughout the ship. From the name alone, that sounds like it is designed to mimic the living neural system. Does that mean it could have developed a soul, given enough time, whereas data could not?

I really liked the facial expression animations in this episode. Its difficult to pull them off in 2D animation, but it really helped in this episode.

French and Portuguese at the convention, their arms open.

I'm surprised there was still a working spaceship left at the junkyard, I would have figured all the useful working parts would be scavenged.
