The time loop variety are my favourite. The one from TNG where the enterprise keeps getting blown up is great. I also love the Discovery episode. It was like fighting an evil groundhogs day guy.
Honestly, I would put those above mirror universe episodes any day of the week.
Hot Take: the only truly good mirror universe episode was Mirror, Mirror.
I stand with you on this one.
I like how they make someone dress sexy whenever they want to show that they're evil.
Sexy and lesbian. "gay coded villains" are a whole thing.
Tbh i hate the mirror universe now... from being a not-so-serious in-joke that came back every now and then, not as much as nudging the timeline, plot or characters into any too serious a direction, to becoming an important part of cannon that I just don't like... mostly because of Discovery and Picard.
It's really just too cheesy. Alternative universes, by all means, but just a mirror universe where there's a bit of a role reversal which stems from can only be described as "a trend in the 70s".
Mirror this, bizarro that, cod sarn it. To call it a gimmick is a bit of an understatement. To call it cannon is a bit embarrassing.
Now excuse me, I've ranted about Star Trek on the interwebz, so now I have to go fulfill the government mandated 3 hours of grass touching.
Would you touch some for me too? I don't want to pause my stream.
I thought the Picard one was a different evil timeline and not the mirror one?
Correct, it’s the confederacy instead of federation or terran empire.
I like that particular cheese, but I couldn't agree more that making it canon or blowing it into something more than a fun time you bust out once in a while to let your actors have a bit of fun playing a bad guy is kinda lame.
Someone's been watching season 4 😂
I’m mostly just against the holodeck episodes. Every time my wif watched ds9 with me, it ended up being a holodeck episode. She doesn’t like Star Trek.
I'm trying not to be offended here, but it's hard.
Moriarty and Ship in a Bottle are not your average holodeck episodes, as far as I’m concerned Inception is just a cheap knock off of Ship in a Bottle.
