Star Trek Discovery Episode Breakdown ‘Despite Yourself’
Star Trek: From the Holodeck is a fan broadcast dedicated to breaking down, analyzing and discussing Star Trek Discovery.
This week Mike and Dave discuss and breakdown Star Trek Discovery 01×010 ‘Despite Yourself’. The episode was the mid-season premiere and it was exactly what he had expected–The Mirror Universe is back! It felt great knowing that Jonathan Frakes was at the helm of this episode. To have him in the lead while connecting various trek storylines was fun.
Additional Topics Discussed:
- Apparently the entire first season was originally conceived as a mirror universe season. With the crew, being swept away to the mirror universe by as early as episode 4.
- The part that destiny plays in Star Trek and how the mirror universe is the perfect sandbox to explore such an idea.
