What "Those Old Scientists" was like for Boimler lol

Minor Lower Deck's spoiler, but I'm going to be pretty vague about the context of it.

(Nonetheless, fair warning given)

Some people use the word "Flip" in place of curse words.

It's entirely possible a written instance of "Flip" in an episode was an example of this, and was actually in reference to a curse word.

Jennifer they could never make me like you!

i’m completely fine with marinler being canonically a platonic relationship, but the fact that the writers and the voice actors keep stressing so much that they’re strictly platonic during interviews makes it sound like it’s very much not platonic tbh (in a “the lady doth protest too much” way)

My favorite moment from the Lower Decks finale?

“THIS GUY SUUUUCKS!!!!”

Ok, I loved the penultimate episode of Star Trek: Lower Decks, especially the guest stars.

But why does Dr. Bashir's voice sound off? Seriously, did anyone else feel like it was a different actor doing Bashir's voice?

For a minute there, I got angry because I thought they had Andrew Robinson come back, but not Alexander Siddig. Then I checked IMDB to see who was doing Bashir's voice, and it is, in fact, Siddig.

So now I'm stuck wondering why his voice sounds off?

In other news, I also loved the inclusion of Alfre Woodard, Jolene Blalock, and Garrett Wang. Especially Alfre Woodard. That was a nice surprise.

God the ending was so good even if it was a bit rushed

Tbh my only problem is that there wasn’t any resolution between the Boimlers - Brad had a whole crisis trying to find meaning in William’s death and he wasn’t even a little pissed to find out he was alive? I wanted to see hands get thrown but oh well

Looks like my long-held headcanon that a Harry Kim who got promoted would threaten the entire multiverse is now just plain canon.

[apodemus-sylvaticus]

For a minute there I forgot the rock dude from Thor was named Korg, not Krog, and thought that Lower Decks somehow got away with putting an MCU character in their show. Still, I see what you did there, guys.

Watching LD 5x03 and uhhhh T’Lyn ya seem a lil jealous re: Jeniner hmm 👀👀

"Hey, Boimler, focus," Mariner says, voice flat and staccato. She's usually pretty good at nailing those wheedly 'Listen to me and give me what I want please' tones, but she doesn't think she'd be able to pull it off even if she had the energy to bother. There's a good chance Boimler is still tangled enough in the post-meltdown haze that the effort would be totally wasted on him anyway. "I need you to lay on top of me."

I’ll apologise if he’s already been covered but I have a character request.

Jack Ransom from Star Trek: Lower Decks.

Jack Ransom from Star Trek: Lower Decks has Kenergy!

[phillycheesesteakcore]

honestly I never would've guessed Boimler would turn out to be a Klingaboo (Kleeabo?)
