Updated Poll: What do you think of "The Red Angel"?

We are finally told who the Red Angel is. Only to see in the end that it is someone still different. Read my review of the latest Discovery episode, DIS: "The Red Angel".

Here is the Poll on "Project Daedalus".

This week's Discovery episode comes with a decent amount of action, with a minor character who suddenly moves into the focus and with some interaction that feels odd. Read my review of DIS: "Project Daedalus".

Updated Poll: Please rate "If Memory Serves".

Discovery revisits the very beginning of the Star Trek franchise in what is primarily designed to be a homage to the first pilot episode, "The Cage". Read my review of DIS: "If Memory Serves".

Updated Poll: What do you think about "Light and Shadows"?

The search for Spock is over (if you don't mind the spoiler). Here is my episode review of DIS: "Light and Shadows" with full spoilers. Despite some gripes with the characters, I think it is the best episode of season 2 so far.

And while I was at it, here is the new review of DIS: "The Sound of Thunder" right away.

Updated Poll: Rate the latest DIS episode, "The Sound of Thunder".

Google+ shuts down personal pages, so I have to abandon it. But I have opened a blog for EAS at Tumblr, with site news and possibly other features.

Feeling a bit better in the past few days, I decided to do something against the boredom. Here are the reviews of DIS: "An Obol for Charon" and DIS: "Saints of Imperfection" that were still missing.

Rate the latest DIS episode, "Saints of Imperfection", in the updated Poll.

Thanks for the many get-well wishes! As I'm unable to write a review, here is just the Poll: Rate "An Obol for Charon".

As much as I would love to make the review form work again, it would require to set up an SMTP relay and is very complex. So sorry, no guest reviews either.

Health problems related to stress force me to suspend site updates for the time being. Please be patient. I may read e-mails, but don't expect a reply any time soon.

The new hair on Klingon heads is no help. With the return of L'Rell, Voq, Georgiou and their storylines, the latest Discovery episode is a setback with nearly all the mistakes of the first season, and also a very uneven episode. Read my review of DIS: "Point of Light".

New Poll: Rate the new Discovery episode, "Point of Light".

 

January

New Poll: Rate the latest Discovery episode, "New Eden".

I just noticed that the server does not send me e-mails submitted through the feedback form or episode review form any longer, probably since mid-November. My apologies to those who tried to contact me in vain! I have no idea yet where and how it is blocked, but I am afraid that it may be for being a "security risk" and may not be enabled again. If you like to send me an episode review, please wait, I will work on a fallback solution.

Read my review of "New Eden" (as usual, with full spoilers). The latest Discovery episode brings us a shocking revelation about a beloved character, a science vs. faith debate, decent action, loads of technobabble and an annoyingly hyperactive ensign.

New Poll: Rate the DIS season 2 premiere, "Brother".

The Discovery season 2 premiere is available (outside the USA) since earlier today. Here is my review of this exciting episode, which also includes some annoying aspects though.

CBS officially announced the so far rumored series about the adventures of former Emperor Georgiou and Section 31. As could be expected, my reaction is not friendly (you have been warned).

The new Picard series will be influenced by the destruction of Romulus in the Abramsverse. While for fans of authentic Star Trek this seems to bode ill, I'm still optimistic. Read the full comment.

I conclude my reviews of Voyager's fourth season with the exciting season finale, "Hope and Fear".

Here is my review of the fourth and final Short Treks episode, "The Escape Artist". Harry Mudd has been captured and is about to be turned over to Starfleet. But he wouldn't be a con man if he didn't still have some trick up his sleeve.

Happy New Year 2019! There are several updates in the article about The Evolution of the Federation Emblem: new variations from Discovery, better screen caps and, most notably, drawings by Brad Wilder.
