205. The Girlfriend Edit (SNW 3.02)

Anika and Liz put on their cutest wedding outfits and settle in to discuss episode 2 of Strange New Worlds' third season: "Wedding Bell Blues". Liz is gonna try not to talk about Pike. Anika is going to do her best not to implode. It's fun!  This episode was engineered in a lab to target Anika personally Is this a mean-spirited commentary on shippers?  We did not need a second sequel to "The Q and the Gray". Or a first sequel. Or "The Q and the Gray".  Christine: I don't want any big romantic gestures Spock: Big romantic gesture, got it It's weird how we're being gaslit into thinking Korby is a decent guy "It's gonna be really hard for me to not talk about dinosaurs on my podcast." We're so happy for an Orgetas subplot that we're not even mad it's the same as Detmer in season 3 of Discovery Batel is firmly in the Girlfriend Box, not the Captain Box The snake/garden of Eden/Taylor Swift's Reputation era styling of Christine's "wedding dress" was a … choice
