Episode Description

“We’re not talking Uncanny Valley, we’re talking Uncanny Grand Canyon.”

In this week’s Star Trek: Lower Decks recap we discuss Dr. Migleemo’s attempt to cook for two food critics from Klowahka (…geddit? Cloaca? Bird butts? Cause they’re birds? It is a very silly episode) while Mariner tries to get her Klingon buddy Ma’ah’s captaincy back and Boilmer fanboys all over the place.

Then Elizabeth briefly talks about the first episode of Wednesday season two, which is also a little silly but with really good production values and some impressive stunt casting.

This segues into Kathryn trying to describe just how awful Asylum’s knockoff Little Mermaid really is, and that leads to a long rant about AI, because, seriously, you guys, it’s not saving you as much time as you think and the end result is so much worse. Also yes we’re old GET OFF OUR LAWN.

This episode’s outro is a clip from Neon Route by Musinova.
