Star Trek: Strange New Worlds: A Quality of Mercy (2022)
A good season's finale
This ending is a strong one,i like the old TNG era look of the Romulans and i would loved to see some Remans too,the episode is excellent, although i don't know why they hate old white men with gray hair (the older fans know what i'm talking about )and because of those retcons i really think this show is more like a remake ,but it is without no doubt one of the best tv series i ever saw. I really like the lack of acid lines between the crew members,like the ones from Discovery or Enterprise ,you know, the ones like the dialogue lines from Archer and T'pol from the first season or like the ones from Burnham and her captains,which are like a dialogue between some nasty kindergarden children, i really think they should have kept Hemmer for the second season and ditch the punk and the Khan girls because they are so cringe but this show is something i would recommend to see to anybody,excepting that forced woke episode,offcourse.
Halo: Emergence (2022)
This is the best episode
This episode reminds me about Andromeda and Star Trek : Enterprise and is getting darker than i previously thought it will be ,in a good way and i love the cameo of the episode.
Halo: Unbound (2022)
This is a great show
Well,i thought this episode is boring,because of the reviews,but it wasn't the case,it is about world building and the background story ,i'm really starting to like this series,it is most definitely better than Star Trek Discovery or even better than Foundation,i really like the characters,the story ,the music,the ships,the vfx and the costumes.
The Batman (2022)
This movie is a masterpiece
I love the movie very much ,it is an extraordinary one ,i love the music,i love the dark tone,Gotham finally looks like Gotham from the animated series,only the police zeppelins are missing and even this version of Batman looks more like Terry McGinnis from Batman Beyond ,the movies is absolutely flawless and everyone says this is fenomenal and i hope someday they will introduce the sequence with the Joker . This movies deseves 10 stars without any kind of doubt.
- BRAVO !!!
Star Trek: Picard: Watcher (2022)
This was a very good episode
I saw a review on the internet which suggests they used a different actress for the young Guinan because they wanted to show us Guinan can transform herself in an older or a younger version of herself anytime she wants to ,so this is a even younger version of herself than the one from Time's Arrow and probably she doesn't remember nothing just because of Q's intervention,not because the change of the timeline and that's way she reacts so different and i realised that is the most plausible theory. The rest ,with the police being bad i have no issue because in Star Trek they had the 3-rd World War , don't you remember ?!?..by the time of the first contact even the brightest minds were some weird hippies and being a fan of movies like Dark Angel and TOS movies era i couldn't be more pleased by the numerous tributes from this episode.
Halo: Contact (2022)
This was great but it has some flaws..
I remember seeing the other movies but this one is a little different .I can see the guys from the vfx are the same guys who designed Star Trek Discovery ,and the weird haircut of the girls is borrowed from Discovery ,Expanse and Foundation too,even if is the most disgusting thing nobody wants to see it and i saw even some Bollywoodian characters inspirated from The Expanse,probably the worst thing about that show , but this series is still looking better than Discovery and it is better than Foundation ,but for once i wish to see a series without woke elements like ugly haircuts,overpowered weird characters ,characters with ambiguous sexual gender and things like that,because nobody cares about the story anymore. Well ,this is a promising start .By the way the blue team and the purple bluish Cortana are looking waaay better ,they should bring them back in the next season.
Star Trek: Picard: Assimilation (2022)
Everything is good except..
I liked the episode ,but i hope to see Elnor back soon ,because there are already too many woke characters ,two from five is too much and i know many fans who are not very pleased thought the same ,i think making the girls gay was a bad ideea and like many others i was almost ready to give up watching this series,because in the golden era Star Trek was very straight,excepting 5 episodes ,one with Riker in TNG,one with Dax in DS-9,one with Tuvix in Voyager and one with Trip in Enterprise and for a series with 6 segments until 2005, compunded from 7 seasons with 22 episodes on each segment ,excepting Enterprise and TOS and TAS ,this is too insignifiant ,so the thing with Star Trek being woke is a big fat lie ,so i cannot understand why the producers are changing the original formula which was working like a charm ,now everybody seems to hate Star Trek , so quoting a Ferengi i could say this is a very bad ideea for buisness, especially if they want this series to be a success on the international market, because is not very pleased by certain cultures and if the Federation can respect so many cultures , mabe the series should do that too,not to try to step on other peoples foot so often.
Star Trek: Discovery: Coming Home (2022)
I used to like Class 1999,Dark Angel,Total Rekall..
When I was In high school,in the class 10-c ,because in my country the classes from the same year are named in alphabetical order ,( that's weird isn't it ?!?), I used to like those great dark sci-fi movies and i see the creators of Discovery and Picard are fans too ,so I would like to ask them why they don't use the same formula if they want us as being fans ?!?.. they should renounce to the wokeness and they should try that formula and the success should come instantly .
Star Trek: Picard: Penance (2022)
-That was wild !!!
-This was ,without no doubt one of the best acting in a Star Trek production i ever saw and those vfx...man.. this show has better visuals than all Star Trek movies and the characters are so well developed ,i liked this episode as much i liked watching any episodes from TNG/DS-9/Voy for the first time.
Star Trek: Discovery: Rosetta (2022)
Something for the writers and the producers
Look, it's already too weird for me , being a straight guy, to write to a gay series ,but if you want a good sci-fi production ,then you should write about at least 4 or 5 new alien species per season (even from the other galaxies or universes) at least 1 artificial solar system or a ring world (like the one from Boba Fett or the one from that TNG episode with Scotty) ,you should have at least 3 or 4 more beautiful straight main characters (for Heaven's sake,the majority of us are still straight people ) and at least one very detailed space station ,4 or 5 new planets with spectacular landscapes or cities and 2 or 3 detailed new cool looking ships .I hope to see that in all Star Trek future series. I don't know why ,but i'm pretty sure nobody will read this unfortunately.
Star Trek: Picard: The Star Gazer (2022)
Stargazer live tv series
I liked the episode ,everything is so good and I sincerely hope to see a Stargazer live tv series(which would be probably the greatest Star Trek ideea since Star Trek Voyager ),with Santiago Cabrera back as Captain Rios and with his future wife Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan). :D.
The Book of Boba Fett: Chapter 7: In the Name of Honor (2022)
This was a good episode
I think this episode is a very good one,but the fans arent very pleased because they expected another cool cameo in the end ,Han Solo , Leia or a guy in shadow with a red lightsaber in his hand .
Star Trek: Prodigy: A Moral Star, Part 2 (2022)
This is a great episode
I like this series ,the characters are ok,the story is great and the fact they are still maintaining the well known look of the aliens unchanged ,makes this series to be pretty great, ,it is a very enjoyable mix between Star Trek Beyond and Voyager , the suspense is excellent and i'm glad to see they are not changing the canon like they did with Discovery. I just cannot wait to see the second part of the season.
P. S. : I would like to see the Caitian joining the crew in the next season.
The Book of Boba Fett: Chapter 6: From the Desert Comes a Stranger (2022)
Reaching to another level
This is without no doubt one of the best (Star Wars or not ) production ever produced for television and beyond that ,I'm feeling like I'm watching an epilogue to The return of the Jedi or even more than this ,I'm feeling like I'm watching the movie we are deserving ,splited in small parts for television and this episode it is absolutely MINDBLOWING !!!
I want to thank the producers for this abolutely great production .
Star Trek: Prodigy: A Moral Star, Part 1 (2022)
Finally,we have a crew
This show us pretty dramatic for a animated series,but in a very good way and i think it is one of the few animated series which not underestimates the power of understanding and thinking of the younger audience , even many of us started to be trekkies watching TNG ,TOS and the other series in our childhood .
The Book of Boba Fett: Chapter 5: Return of the Mandalorian (2022)
Wow...there is a ringworld in SW...?!?
I give ten stars for this episode only for the ringworld which is the dream of any sci-fi lover from anywhere ,but even the story and everything else is absolutely brilliant , i am absolutely speechless..!!!..this puts even the actual Star Trek or Foundation on the shame list.
Star Trek: Prodigy: Time Amok (2022)
This episode is great, indeed.
Probably nobody doesn't seem to be interested to see this series,but it is actually one of the best Star Trek series of the present and I actually consider this show to be better than Lower Decks because it doesn't have that subcultural vibe ,you know, when everybody is using words like "-Dude !!! " and when everybody is acting like a drunk cyberpunker .If you consider yourself a trekkie ,you should give a chance to this episode and this series. Let's show to the producers we aren't just a bunch of haters and we just don't like mediocrity.
Star Trek: Prodigy: First Con-tact (2022)
This is Star Trek
I really like this episode , I think this series is going in a very good direction and I really like they decided to keep the TMP/TNG aesthetics ,just like Lower Decks did and I hope the producers will keep doing this even with the future animated Star Trek series,just to avoid any confusions ,because I got the feeling the changes they did in Star Trek Discovey will not be the last ones for the Star Trek live shows. This episode has more exploration, it is very enjoyable and the visuals are pretty fascinating.
Star Trek: Discovery: Su'Kal (2020)
Not bad at all
This episode is a good one,excepting some ridiculous parts of the action from Discovery.I saw on IMDB there is listed a new Star Trek series ,Discovery Logs about the crew's logs ,maybe that series will be what Discovery should have beeen from the begining.I saw M.Wiseman likes how she is looking in the Discovery tights and that is cool ,but her opinion doesn't make the audience and the fans who don't like her look ,which is ..hideous..( i'm sorry,but that is the truth) are not haters and Kate Mulgrew should keep her mouth shot,because the same fans forgived her when she forced Jeri Ryan to stay without the permission to go to the bathroom in the filming hours,be as she was so jealous of Seven's success.

Star Trek: Discovery: Terra Firma, Part 1 (2020)
There she goes...
I like to see Michelle Yeoh acting ,but seeing those old Mirror verse dude uniforms makes me remember about the orc bald Klingons (that is a big departure from the old TMP Klingon-Vikings with their ridged foreheads) and about the Andorians with stoned tentacles and that is not so good because all i want to see after an episode from DSC past era is a remake with the TNG era looking aliens.
Star Trek: Discovery: Terra Firma, Part 2 (2020)
-Bring back Prime Georgiou,please !
-This episode makes me think the series could have been better ,whith prime Georgiou as the captain and without the new thights ,i'm sorry i wanted to say uniforms (lol) and without the redesign of the old species which makes the past connection point of this episode to be almost pointless and i hope i will never see these new visual refits ever again ,and i'm so sorry to see they want to make the section 31 series in the TOS era ( but i'm pretty sure this series will not be produced ) ,this is a great episode,because of Michelle Yeoh's performance and because Burnham is not the center of the Milky Way galaxy ,for once,like i said.
The Mandalorian: Chapter 16: The Rescue (2020)
-This episode is sooo perfect !!!!
-This episode is soo great and for the first time in my life a saw a Star Wars new thing beating a new Star Trek production in quality ,probably the producers of Discovery are regreting not respecting the past of their saga just like those brilliant SW producers did. -May the force be with you !
The Mandalorian: Chapter 14: The Tragedy (2020)
- Poor Grogu !!!
I love this Star Wars with Predator vibes and I hope they will rescue the kid and the producers will give to MANDO a ship like MILLENNIUM FALCON,THIS WOULD BE ABSOLUTELY MEGA FANTASTIC AND A DREAM COME TRUE ,PLEASEEEEEEE !!!
Kudos to Robert Rodriguez for being such a versatile director as any real good director should be.
Star Trek: Voyager: Year of Hell, Part II (1997)
This is a deep and superb Voyager episode.
I would love to see,now,at the end of 2020 ,a Star Trek episode or even something else so good ,I love the maturity of the characters ,I like the story and the vfx and the sets and the costumes are outstanding .This is REAL SCIENCE FICTION.
