Star Trek Strange New Worlds — Episode 10 — A Quality of Mercy — A Review.

25th November, 2022



Is it me … or is it amazing how fast time goes?

It’s possibly not just me, is it?

After all, it only seems like last week that it was a Friday … and that I was telling I would be watching an episode of … 

Yeah: OK.

It’s Friday, again!   And, yet again, I’m going to be watching an episode of Star Trek Strange New Worlds: it’s A Quality of Mercy, the last one of the first series, so you know.

And, of course, I’ll be watching, once I’ve had dinner.

I’ll be posting my reviews, tomorrow night!

I’ll see you then!

Star Trek Strange New Worlds — Episode 9 — All Those Who Wander — A Review

18th November, 2022.


As I write … ?

A civilised man is sitting in a chair, waiting for vegetables to boil.

Rather than trying to kill me!

Yes: it’s Friday.

And?   I’m cooking dinner.

And, once I’ve had that?

I’m going to be watching another episode of the very enjoyable Star Trek Strange New Worlds.

And will have this written review done, late on the 19th November.

I’m looking forward hearing what you think of what I thought.

Star Trek Strange New Worlds — Episode 8 — The Elysian Kingdom — A Review

11th November, 2022.



Right … it’s Friday.

And?

I can safely say vegetables are boiling, chips are doing, and some fish is being baked in the oven.

Wikipedia … ?   Tells me the reason we have it on a Friday, is that the Roman Catholic Church forbade eating red meat on a Friday.

Which explains that.

WHY they did that?   And Orthodox Churches forbade it — and sex — on a Friday?

I really don’t know.

I’m assuming it’s for religious reasons: they are churches, after all.

What those are?

I’m blowed if I know!

At any rate … ?

It’s Friday: which means … ?

I’ll be watching the next episode Star Trek Strange New Worlds: and posting my review, tomorrow.

Will The Elysian Kingdom be as good as Lift Us Where Suffering Cannot Reach?

I’ll let you know, tomorrow.

Star Trek Strange New Worlds — Episode 7 — The Serene Squall — A Review

4th November, 2022.


Right … I’m writing this — as I have done for the past few weeks — on a late Friday afternoon.

Or possibly an early evening.

Whatever it is at 17·30 in November.

Dinner — fish and chips, again! — is on the proverbial go.

After that … ?

Frankly, after that, I’ll be doing what I’ve been doing of the past few weeks.

I’ll be watching The Serene Squall: the next episode of Star Trek Strange New Worlds.

I hope you care to join me for the thing.

Star Trek Strange New Worlds — Episode 6 — Lift Us Where Suffering Cannot Reach — A Review

28th October, 2022.



Yes: it’s Friday, again.

I like a Friday, I really do.

It means fish and chips: which doesn’t get boring, funnily.

Even if I still can’t tell you why we’re supposed to eat them!

Occasionally?   I’ll iron shirts.

On a Friday … or whenever else I need to do them.

I have no interviews due, granted.

But also had no shirts: I want some at hand.

But I’m digressing.

It’s Friday.

So?

As I’ve been doing for the past few weeks, I’m going to have dinner.

Then?

Watch the next episode of Star Trek Strange New Worlds: the pretentious sounding Lift Us Where Suffering Cannot Reach.

Star Trek Strange New Worlds — Episode 5 — Spock Amok — A Review

21st October, 2022.


Right, than … it’s Friday.

And … ?

I’ll be brutally frank, I’m looking forward to fish and chips.

It’s Friday: and why we’re supposed to eat them?

I couldn’t tell you.

Just that it’s something I’ve done for some time.

Something else I’ve been doing … ?

Is watching TV.

The past few weeks has seen me watching the first series of Star Trek Strange New Worlds.   Then posting my review, the following night.

I’ll be doing that with the fifth episode of the series: Spock Amok.

Given most Star Trek fans will be able to tell you exactly when the LAST time the word ‘Amok’ turned up in a Star Trek title?

I’m betting I know where it’s (partially) going to be set.

Star Trek Strange New Worlds — Episode 4 — Memento Mori — A Review

14th October, 2022.




Right at the moment?

The news is on in the background: and Liz Truss — calling her Prime Minister seems wrong, given how she’s doing — is droning on in a repeat of the shortest PM’s Press Conference I’ve ever seen.

That repeat?   Will soon be over.

That means I can have something else on.

I’m looking forward to that.

After catching Hellraiser, last week?

I’m going to be watching another episode of Star Trek Strange New Worlds, tonight.

Memento Mori, the fourth episode.

I’ll have my written and video reviews up, tomorrow night: I’ll see you then.

Star Trek Strange New Worlds — Episode 3 — Ghosts of Illyria — A Review

30th September, 2022.


Is it just me … ?

Or does is it bad out?

It’s bad out: it’s raining.

Not heavily raining: but raining, none the less.

Frankly?   That’s encouraging me to do what I’ve always done: catch another episode of Star Trek Strange New Worlds’ first series: then finishing off my written and video reviews, tomorrow night.

I’ll see you then!

Star Trek Strange New Worlds — Episode 2 — Children of the Comet — A Review

23rd September, 2022.









Right … It’s Friday, again.

And I’ve an appointment with my opticians, tomorrow.

There’s times like this I’m grateful to be on benefits: it means that I can up to three pairs of news prescription spectacles.

Admittedly, cheap spectacles: but new ones, none the less.

So … ?

Once I’ve had dinner, I’ll be getting an early night.

Once I’ve watched Children of the Comet, the next episode of Star Trek Strange New Worlds.

I’ll see you … after I’ve had my eyes tested!

Star Trek Strange New Worlds — Episode 1 — Strange New Worlds — A Review

16th September, 2022.


It’s Friday, 16th September, 2022.

And … ?

Home-made chips — or, at least, chip shaped bits of potato — are burning in the oven.

Fish?

Is distinctly undercooking on a shelf above them.

And my nephew?

Has posted more videos … !



Which is possibly beside the point.

Unless you’re Jude, of course.

At any rate?   It’s Friday: and, as I’ve had something of a break?

I wanted to watch some TV: then tell you about it, tomorrow night.

Frankly?

I’m curious about Star Trek Strange New Worlds: and thought the first episode of the recent first series would be a good place to start.
