[Discovery] 1:07- Magic to Make the Sanest Man Go Mad

Quote:
As the U.S.S. Discovery crew attempts to let loose at a party, an unwelcome visitor comes aboard bringing about a problematic and twisted sequence of events.
Should be interesting to see the crew let loose.

Looks like they didn't get orders to save the Admiral yet. Got to love political negotiations.

I'd kind of like to see the Admiral again, so hope they get her back eventually.

It was interesting seeing Michael start to develop a relationship with Tyler. I loved their kiss. If it carries on I could ship it for sure.

It was odd to me that Mudd could own everyone so easily, but it was great fun to watch. I'm glad he came back.

The whole time-loop thing has been done so many times before, but at least this particular time-loop was done deliberately by Mudd, so there was a definite purpose to it.

Stamets was awesome in this episode. I'm not sure if I remember whether his change in character has really been explained in any depth. It's fun, but mysterious.

Shouldn't the title of this thread say 1.07?

Whoops! I'll change that now. Thanks for mentioning it.

I don't usually care for time loops. Didn't really mind this one since they moved things along with each reset.

I'm really liking the friendship between Tilly and Michael.

Also loving the developing relationship between Michael and Tyler.

Interesting that Staments being linked to the spore drive made him immune to the time loop.

Mudd was a great villain. Reminded me of Q. Did I miss where they explained how he managed to access the command functions in the ship's computer?

Liked how Michael used Mudd's greed against him to get another reset.

No problem.



Yeah I didn't mind the time loop thing so much in this episode. They seemed to find a fresh way of doing it, to a certain extent.

Other than the very start, each reset developed the storyline.

Interesting that Michael's secret was that she'd never been in love, and that they introduced the possibility of her hooking up with Tyler.

Found it strange that Saru's threat indicator thingys didn't perceive Mudd as a threat.

I've never seen a party like that on Star Trek before. It was very nice to see.
