But, why would they target Picard's progeny rather than Janeways, given her position as mengele in their history? And what would they have in common with founders?

Why is newtrek obsessed with colour red? Red Matter, Red Angel, Red Door. Is this anti space communism kick?

They also have the ability to shape shift, for the record.

Yeah but not as founders do. They're not gooey mush, just a hyper adaptable biological form. They have been finding gooey mushy founders.

On the other hand, this exact plot is just a continuation of that Voyager episode "In the Flesh". So there's canonical backing in spades.

As Cap mentioned, the Intrepid getting hurt and then pissed off was shot very well. More of that please.

I'm enjoying the show for what it is. But I can't shake the feeling I'm reading one of those Beta Canon TrekLit novels.

This is almost literal Fan Fiction. It is brutal.

From a certain point of view everything since TOS is fan fiction. Maybe not Roddenberry era TNG, but that largely stinks.

I told my wife this morning that I derive AT LEAST 50% of my enjoyment of watching this season by complaining about the non-sequitur plot and constant slamming of my nostalgia center in hamfisted ways. Seems like i'm going to "love" tonight.

I don't think they've announced it yet. But on Monday they said they'd release it soon.

So they’re researching Kirk’s double fist maneuver?

Love how Geordi went from "we have no time!" To sharing child rearing stories in one scene.

Vadic is one of the worst star trek characters ever. Change my mind.
