For those of you who might remember, is Stonn the Vulcan that Spock has to eventually challenge for the hand of T'Pring?

I'm fine with serialized elements in an episodic format (effectively they're already doing that with the characters already such as the development of Spock's relationships with T'Pring/Chapel). TNG certainly had that as well. I don't think it's an issue if Angel or Sybok pop up once in a while as running villains.
I haven't watched Final Frontier in a long, long time but I seem to recall Sybok, the character, being less of an issue than the plot of that movie itself (and especially the ending). There may be interesting places this show could take him. |

God damn it. Just when I started internally bitching about how goofy the episode was even though it was fun, those sumbitches had to punch me in the gut like that.

Ugh. I crapped out midway through the last episode and now I don't really have any desire to see the current one.

I was surprised because it's the kind of episode that shows normally do after they have well established characters, to change things up a bit. It's a fantasy episode with many of the actors playing parts that are dissimilar from their normal roles. They all obviously had a blast doing it and hammed it up quite a bit. Also, Lieutenant La'an Noonien-Singh (Christina Chong) has some great tits.

So that was unexpectedly hugely emotional at the end. Really made the episode for me.
I'm also not sure how well the rest of it will go over with most in this era of TV, but these are the kinds of stories you can and should be doing on an episodic series and very much reminds me of aspects of TOS. |

Definitely didn't notice this Easter egg. |

While the last episode was light hearted I actually chuckled until the end when they get into your heart.
The fact that some of the characters play people they aren't normally made it fun for me. And yes...Noonien-Singh definitely has some distinguishing features they tend to hide with her normal uniform. |
