I used to love this show. I am so disappointed that the last few episodes have taking such a turn into gross comedy.
Great episode with callbacks to OG Star Trek past though had some minor flaws ! Overall this was the second best episode of Lower Decks !
This episode may be among the best of the season. With a valid reason for a slew of heart-warming callbacks to treks-past, the episode delivers on that touch of nostalgia it desperately yearns to provide with each episode. What may be more important is that the episode contains a solid narrative. 'I, Excretus' not only plays on the core premise of Lower Decks and the undervalued crew of the Cerritos, but it also crafts a story that feels original, providing a fair amount of much-needed growth for both the lower deckers and the senior officers. Aside from the overuse of a bit of juvenile humor, well done.
I don't know why whenever I watch this series I get the impression that they are not laughing within the Star Trek universe, in fact they are making fun of the Star Trek universe.
This episode is nearly perfect! I've watched it multiple times (and will continue to do so, I'm sure). Lower Decks has really found its footing during this season - it has gotten so much better. I, Excretus of Borg is one of my favorite episodes of this show. Great episode!
