I very much enjoyed this episode. The 'future kids' have so much chemistry, and their banter is always spot on! I LOVED seeing the Enterprise and its crew in animation. SO well done, it looked absolutely incredible! They knocked this one, out of the park!

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

Absolutely!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@Patriiiiick]

It's so nice living in a time again when there's loads of great Star Trek to watch. 90s me is very happy.

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

Yessssssss! So good :)

[@leepinky]

Huhuhu! I too laughed cried and squeaked! So many random easter eggs too! My fave was the callback to the other time travel occurrences! Also the Enterprise guys geeking out about Archer and his crew. But also teared up at the end with the Orion captain! Huhuhu 😢😢😢

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

This episode was EVERYTHING ❤️❤️❤️😭😭😭

[@emilhofilena5570]

This episode was incredible!! I'm so happy they didn't just settle with having it be a comedic crossover episode with references. It really provided the Enterprise crew with much-needed reassurance after everything they've been through so far this season. Knowing that Una becomes associated with Ad Astra per Aspera made me really misty-eyed. Glad to see someone reacting to this show! (P.S. I thought you looked familiar, then I realized it's because I was classmates with Mat in high school! hahaha just thought I'd say hello as well!)

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

Omg!!! Hahaha. Hello!! And yes, I love how it provided so much reassurance/closure- from Number One to Uhura to Pike to even Spock/Chapel 😭😭😭

[@CeedFX]

I teared up during Ad Astra part in the end, too. Great reaction, hope you hit 1k milestone soon!

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

Oh thank you!! I hope so too 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@justinp4996]

This was a much better episode than I was even hoping for. Also the first time ever I hit skip intro as I wanted to see the episode so bad and then noticed the animation so had to scan back to watch it.

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

Yes!! It was so much better than I hoped for 😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@bryancash8251]

Omg I did the same thing with the skip lol

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

@@bryancash8251 hard same. If you look at my reaction you’d see that the screen was already showing the time bar (?) coz I was moving the cursor to skip… but then I noticed the animated Enterprise

[@yal100]

Wow! I did the same thing and as it was scrolling by I said WAIT!! THAT'S ANIMATED!!! Reeeewind! 🤣

[@jeffreyplante5958]

This is an awesome episode I think I'll rewatch it again and again

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

Yes yes yessss

[@michaelpapp5518]

5:03 now that the Enterprise has an animation model, I think it’s gonna show up in LDS. I saw a couple of scenes in the trailer set on Voyager’s bridge. I’m guessing they’re going to the fleet’s museum this season.

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

Omg I’m hyperventilating already

[@DennisMatheson]

Additional joke when Ransom is going on about how Una was the hottest officer in Starfleet. Ransom is voiced by Jerry O'Connell. Who is married, in real life, to Rebecca Romijn. Who plays Una.

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

Yesssss caught that too! That was such a nice deep meta cut 😍

[@StudentoftheABC]

I loved this episode. I just wish we could've gotten Tendi and Rutherford in live action

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

Omg if that happened I would’ve straight out collapsed hahahaha

[@briangressett902]

Love this episode... I'm about to watch it again myself.

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

Yesssssss

[@MrTbk1701]

It was so amazing! I laughed I cried….now in conflict because the 2nd episode this season was my favorite but now damn this was soooo good 🖖

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

The beautiful thing about it is the closure it gives Ad Astra Per Aspera!!! And there you go I’m tearing up again thinking about it 😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@leepinky]

That intro was GORGEOUS

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

Amen

[@michaelpapp5518]

6:09 I would swear on Worf’s Honor. There’s nothing stronger. Plus if you break your word, the Bane of the Duras Family will come after you.

[@kerrygligorovic9758]

They should do the animated series version of Star Trek: Strange New World because Star Trek: Lower Deck is becoming successful so it wouldn't hurt to do another animated series version of Star Trek.

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

OR yet another animated series! (Is Star Trek Academy going to be animated?) but I loved that animated scene for SNW in the end 🤣🤣🤣

[@danielhead8123]

No the starfleet academy series is live action

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

Oooooh… I’ll never say no to more live action though… I really need my Star Trek Legacy!!

[@andrewhamilton138]

This one was fun to watch love it.

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

Yessssss

[@timolinwilliams9404]

Just to answer your question: Trelane was a character from TOS episode "The Squire of Gothos." Captian Kirk and his crew were the ones who had to deal with him. He had the same powers as Q did, but they encountered him in the 23rd century.

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

Ohhhhhh!!!! Thank you!!!

[@timolinwilliams9404]

@@JustSomeBodisOpinion You're welcome!🙂

[@MicahSps]

From now on, as far as I'm concerned, if we don't see the back of a nacelle while the ships are on screen, Buggy is there, hitching a ride, and good for them!

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

Omg hahahahhaa

[@bradheld7927]

13:53 - the Trelaine thing is a reference to the TOS episode "The Squire of Gothos" - people have theorized that the god-like character was Q. Or that Q was based on Trelaine.

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

Thanks!! Haha I’ve been meaning to check that TOS episode out

[@julieeverett-fx3su]

or trelaine was a q, a young q

[@Jeyshara]

Thanks for the reaction. Honestly, wer are the same. I really had the same reaction at the same time as you. Including the tearing up at number ones per astra scene.

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

Oh man that was so touching 😭😭😭😭

[@katrineroberts4084]

My favourite line "the ancient thing is doing a thing,"

[@michaelpapp5518]

3:20 Sadly, no, but the plot point was very important to the episode. I was very happy with how hopeful the Orion scientists looked at the end of the episode.

[@michaelvincent4280]

Finally.......someone with REAL reactions ! Thanks. (a original Trecker from day one 1966)

This was such a treat episode end and with me yesterday going through the entirety of lower Decks(again)that just made the episode that much better

[@AdamEspersona]

Fun fact: this episode (in the 24th century, at least) takes places between the DS9 and Peanut Hamper episodes of Lower Decks Season 3.

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

Oh!! Really???

[@julieeverett7442]

lower decks takes place in the 2380's AFTER ds9 and voyager, you sure about that?

[@AdamEspersona]

@@julieeverett7442 I'm referring to those specific Season 3 episodes: "Hear All, Trust Nothing", and "A Mathematically Perfect Redemption". It's due to the stardates.

Pike's 'hmm' makes me laugh each time.

Great TOS reference with Trelane and Q!

I really need to watch The Squire of Gothos!

[@lcb1250]

@@JustSomeBodisOpinion Silly and funny episode but the similarities to Q are there!

[@Evan1060]

Trivia - did you notice the koala bear in the stars (lower left screen ) at the end of the intro credits? I've seen this 7 times so it was fun to watch your reaction to my fav parts. Thanks for sharing.

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

Yesssss I love the Space Koala ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@charlesatlas9123]

When I started to watch this episode and I saw that it was animated, I was about to stop watching it because I do not like any star trek in form of animation, but for some reason I decided to give it a chance. Well, to my surprise I really enjoyed the episode especially when Spock gives those famous words "Live long and prosper"at the end. Incredible episode. I don't know a thing about the Lower Deck, and if you like and enjoy the animations, more power to you.

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

I’m glad you stayed through it! Honestly Lower Decks really grew on me, especially with the level of deep fan cuts they have. But yes, it’s definitely one of those “your mileage may vary” type of things!

[@FelipeMAPT]

you dont like any st animated ??????? DUDE DUDE DUUUUUUDEEEEEEEE YOU ARE loosing having soooo much fun !!!!! Lower Decks is really fun to watch OMG

[@wtimmins]

This is my favorite ST episode ever. Which is weird but... yeah

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

I love it so much

[@Batmandabomb]

I was not sure at first but I liked it... i grew up on Trek in the 60s 70s as a kid.. even watched Ster Trek cartoon... It was good

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

That’s great you enjoyed it!! ❤️

[@joeswanson733]

i wonder if tendi and rutherford got sent back in time. would it be a even better episode.

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

I think for Tendi, it may have gotten harder due to the Orion side of things.. for Rutherford, I think it would’ve been complicated with all his future tech out in the open haha. I’m glad they just kept it to Boimler and Mariner though, or else it would’ve been utter chaos 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@katrineroberts4084]

I absolutely loved this episode.

[@randomaccount-dq1jq]

13:55 Trelane is the first person of the Q race humanity knowingly meet, he's in the ToS series though.

Thank you! Yes, Squire of Gothos is now on my to-be-watched list!

Trelane was a being very very similar to Q

In TOS

[@jmarie9997]

So... are the LD crew drunk off their heads or are we the viewers?

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

I’m definitely drunk on love 🤣

[@malmofanatico]

Can u make the volumr of the episode and you louder? Can hear niether well❤

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

If I make the episode any louder, the copyright catchers come! :( hence I try to balance with putting the subtitles below so you have context to what I’m reacting to 🤣

[@cjdavis2684]

This Spock couldn't be hot even if you set the Enterprise on Fire! As for mariner. I wanted to toss her out the nearest airlock, she is so Damn annoying you just want to stun her with a phaser at close range. like literally against her forehead. Other wise the episode was cool.

[@JustSomeBodisOpinion]

Hard disagree on Hot Spock and Mariner! Haha but despite that, great you still enjoyed the episode ❤️

[@antonioaguera4580]

Watched two minutes and already had to shut it down, unwatchable, all because you are too scared to not show it mirrored.

Sorry for your experience! But I’m not effing with Trek copyright lol, I’ve had too much bad experience with it 😅🤣
