I’ve been waiting to talk about this episode since @firstflightpod.bsky.social started years ago. Come hear me expound on why I absolutely adore this episode! 💚🥕🖖🏽
**🚀🖖NEW EPISODE ALERT🖖🚀**

It’s time to go “Home” with the NX-01 crew, meet Captain Hernandez, T’Pol’s mom, and examine the aftermath of the Xindi attack on Earth—and that’s just scratching the surface of this excellent episode of Enterprise! As Archer would say, let’s go!

Björk starting as she meant to go on, with a bold, striking & unique single - & a stunning video too! Her music would only get more challenging & original from here.

In #StarTrekTOS' "Journey to Babel", there are two huge plates of colourful food cubes (yellow, blue 💙, green and red/pink). These cubes look more like dyed marshmellows than the season 1 apple food cubes. It can be seen that they are white and not yellow under all that dye, unlike the apple ones.

This was a really great conversation that branched out across the #StarTrek franchise in general. Don’t miss @abbymsommer.bsky.social and I chat about “The Hunted,” “The Wounded,” and “Memorial” after the main show.

This one gets personal but for good reason! Plus stick around for discussion on MORE eps from across the franchise about PTSD and anxiety. 💚🖖🏽🥕
**🚀BONUS EPISODE ALERT🚀**

@abbymsommer.bsky.social and @shelfnerds.bsky.social celebrate November with this month’s Trek of the Month discussion on Discovery’s “Forget Me Not” and SNW’s “Under the Cloak of War” and some bonus TNG/VOY episodes!

#Notevember Day 30: How does the main theme capture the series ethos? ENT's "Faith of the Heart"

While the ENT theme can be divisive, I do like how its lyrics capture humanity's continued exploration of deep space & the wonders of discovery

Amazing episode! 🩷🥺

"Eye of the Needle" is #VGR's first truly great standalone episode. Totally rooted in the series' premise and fully capitalizing on those opportunities. The emotional roller coaster offers a perfectly attuned entry point for the audience to feel right alongside the crew.

Score: 4.5/5

Over the course of #StarTrekTOS' "Bread and Circuses", several different fruit bowls are seen on planet 892-IV in #StarTrekTOS' "Bread and Circuses". I can see apples, oranges, a banana, grapes of various colours, a red plum (?), a pear (?) and maybe a nectarine (?).

OTD, the #StarTrekTNG episode "Parallels," which showed various alternate universes that included Troi and Worf as a married couple, Wesley Crusher serving on the Enterprise, and a very desperate, Borg-weary Riker. Also: Worf's surprise party!

#Notevember Lush

I adore the George Duning score for “Metamorphosis,” especially the track called “Cochrane Calls.” The lush strings, oboe, and flute are delicious.
