Boimler Tells Truth About Starfleet Officers - Star Trek Lower Decks 1x08

[@danieljames1868]

I love how he knows just random stuff from canon, because let's be honest, any starfleet officer logs that aren't classified to heck and back would be absolutely

[@VaderTheWhite]

We will never let Dr. Crusher live the boning a space ghost thing down. Never.

Someone needs to tell the salt vampires about replicators. Getting salt from replicators would be a lot easier than killing people.

[@paulsmart4672]

Jesus that bit with T'ana getting on the wrong ship is probably the best distinctly Star Trek joke I've ever seen.

[@bushidotestu1997]

Gotta love how Boilmer doesn’t blame the command deck crew for all the shenanigans they get up to but for just how insane the universe they live in constantly throws random curveballs at them that there’s no way to be fully prepared for

[@goliathprojects7354]

I am so glad they got John de Lancie to voice Q. Anything else would've been unacceptable

[@EddieDexterStewart]

I've said it once and I'll say it again. Once Boimler gains his confidence and gets in his groove, the dude is going to become the Next Kirk.

[@lostjedi3380]

To be fair to Ransom, everyone in Starfleet believed the salt vampires died out because the TOS crew told them so.

[@GhostBear3067]

Finally somebody brings up that all the ships in Starfleet look the same.

[@BlueGoblin1]

He referenced the giant 60ft tall spock clone from animated series. The writers did their job.

"Starfleet always knows what it's doing"

[@mattwho81]

Picard fights Q with logic, reason and wit. Never gets rid of him.

[@explorinjenkins349]

The doctor is becoming my favorite side character quickly.

I was a bit dubious at first, but this show has completely grown on me. Its doing everything right. Its well written, funny but not forced. It makes brilliant use of canon reference for tipping other iterations, The plots are every bit as whacky as TOS, the visual aesthetic is classic TNG/DS9, and the whole thing feels right. It feels like Star Trek. This show is to the Trek franchise, what Lego Batman is to the Batman franchise. What's not to like? Having John Lancie voicing Q shows a genuine respect for the canon, characters, actors, and the audience. I'm praying for an episode in S02 with a Shatnir voiced Kirk.

“In fact I find YOU guilty of trying to take them down with this sham of a trial! DRUMHEAD!!”

[@Ooilei]

This is what happens when you have writers who actually know Star Trek history, good writing and real Star Trek

[@FirstLast-cg2nk]

Nothing he said here is wrong or false. In every iteration of Star Trek, situations tend to suddenly go crazy and wrong with no time to warn the lower decks. It's just "Red Alert, hope you don't get sucked out through a hull breach!" And let's be honest, in TNG, Riker kept getting into trouble because of his latest girl of the week before he finally settled on Troi, and 99 times out of 100, the majority of the episode involves figuring out what the heck is going on.

[@myriadmediamusings]

Y’know I dug Boimler’s speech here. It’s of course great if the characters are at the peak of their potential but that should not mean the characters that are not infalliable or are flawed or not perfect should be looked down upon.

[@romeovf]

"I think you're hurting the eels!" Tendi is so pure ❤

[@Galactus78]

It’s true... Dr. Crusher made it with a Scottish Energy Ghost
