Star Trek Discovery 2.03 ‘Point of Light’ Breakdown
Star Trek: From the Holodeck is a fan broadcast dedicated to breaking down, analyzing and discussing all things Star Trek.
This week Mike and Dave discuss and breakdown Star Trek Discovery’s season 2 premiere 02.03 ‘Point of Light’. A surprise visitor to the U.S.S. Discovery brings shocking news about Spock and dredges up past regrets for Burnham.
Some Topics Discussed:
- We got an inside look within the shattered and very divisive Klingon empire as they make their way toward unification — which nicely paired with the introduction of Section 31.
- Kurtzman and the writers this season, continue to fix little issues pertaining to canon and continuity.
- As a fan of TV and looking at this academically, the way they are bringing Spock’s story into Discovery and connecting it to Burnham’s development or you could even call it her origin story has felt well thought out.
- Trolls are ruining the experience, some of our fellow Star Trek fans need to chill — they seem to take delight in trying to destroy the mood.
- The writers are not leaving us waiting very long this year to give us answers to the smaller narrative aspects.
- A discussion on the seven red signals and the red angel and how it can be connected to ancient Jewish literature and the idea of Archangels.
- And more!
