It was such a fun episode. The Meta was high on this one. I love Lower Decks and SNW.

The moment Boimler did his speedwalking I started cracking up. I don't think my smile left my face the whole episode.

OMG yes he got the movement down perfect.

I like when him and Mariner kept having normal volume side conversations in front of people and they're like you know we can hear you?

Imagine poor Spock, he's just recently experimenting with emotions and here comes walking sexual harrassment redshirt Beckett running her mouth about Hot Spock. I really wanted her to start yawning during a briefing though. That would have been the cherry on top of this awesome sundae.

This one was actually quite entertaining. When the episode switched from the Live Action "previously on" recap to the animated Lower Decks crew, I was tickled. The second Jack Quaid came through the portal as Boimler, I was invested. He nails the live action portrayal. I also loved him as Hughie in The Boys.

This was such a great episode. Had me smiling and laughing the whole time. It really felt like more of a live action Lower Decks episode rather than a SNW episode, which was a really fun diversion from the usually more serious tone of SNW.

Is this a bug or deliberate API hacking to be meta? You posted this in the future?

They're a Kbin user. There's a bug with kbin content being posted to Lemmy where it doesn't get the time stamp right after federation, and it'll be in the future from 1 to 3 hours.

Or is it just a really clever marketing scheme since this episode deals with time travel? /s

Ah thanks, makes sense. I kinda figured it was a bug but it seemed just coinicidental enough with "dropped early" to be deliberate.

Rumors are that there will be a musical episode in a couple of weeks.
