Caution: Spoilers ahead for “Star Trek: Discovery” season 4, episode 5Speculation continues, with still no main verification on why Mary Wiseman took off to Starfleet Academy last week and there are all sorts of viewpoints and theories flying around social media. Nice to hear Aurellio, played memorably by Kenneth Mitchell last season, referenced in this episode (Image credit: Paramount Plus) The friction between Stamets and Tarka is set up by way of exposition in between Dr Culber (Wilson Cruz) and his partner and we discover that apparently Tarka is big-headed and has no professional courtesy. Score: 5 1/2/ 10 The very first 5 episodes of Season 4 of “Star Trek: Discovery” are offered to view now and subsequent installments will drop every Thursday on Paramount+ in the US and CTV Sci-Fi or Crave TV in Canada.
Caution: Spoilers ahead for “Star Trek: Discovery” season 4, episode 5Speculation continues, with still no official confirmation on why Mary Wiseman took off to Starfleet Academy last week and there are all sorts of theories and viewpoints flying around social media. Perhaps this might have worked had it not been for the fact that this is really rather comparable to what happened last season, when it was found in the episode “SuKal” (S03, E08) that a deeply disturbed delinquent was responsible for damaging all the dilithium. Good to hear Aurellio, played memorably by Kenneth Mitchell last season, referenced in this episode (Image credit: Paramount Plus) The friction in between Stamets and Tarka is set up by method of exposition between Dr Culber (Wilson Cruz) and his partner and we find out that obviously Tarka is arrogant and has no expert courtesy. At least someone on the composing group understands the difference between a nod to another movie and ripping off an entire set piece, like we saw in last seasons episode “Scavengers” (S03, E06). Rating: 5 1/2/ 10 The very first 5 episodes of Season 4 of “Star Trek: Discovery” are offered to see now and subsequent installments will drop every Thursday on Paramount+ in the United States and CTV Sci-Fi or Crave TV in Canada.
