    between the doctor/Isaac story, and the Bordus family drama, they take up the sub plots in most episodes.

      Kinda like the Next Generation and their Data exploration stories (which are my least liked episodes)

      Would rather see Captain and crew kicking azz and getting their azz's kicked

        I just hope they start going easier on the Doctor related stories

        Getting kinda sick of her and Isaac dominating this season so far
        I don't feel that they've dominated anything. We're only nine episodes in, and out of those there have been three Moclan episodes, one Ed episode, one Kelly episode, one Alara episode, one Finn episode, and two Isaac episodes. Next one is another Ed episode, so I think it's been pretty balanced.

          I really love this show! It makes me sad that Mego hasn't announced figures from it. They would sell really well!

            So that's enough to explain his sudden "change of heart"? Even though he's said 100 times that he doesn't have that capacity? And even though it was in total contrast to the behavior he exhibited in just the previous episode?

            I get that the show needed him to "turn", it just felt a little jarring.

              Yes, it was enough for me.

                Most here seem to have loved Identity, Part 2 a lot more than I did. I was disappointed. The whole premise was lifted right out of the recent Battlestar Galactica, which was probably lifted from someplace else, too. Mix in a lot of TNG and a little Game of Thrones, and you're done. And I agree with a prior comment, Issac needed a bit more for me to really buy the transition. Very nice job on the special effects though, considering it's a TV show and budgets are tight.

                Anyway, the show in general is very breezy to watch, you can have it on and fold laundry or do whatever else, as there's no heavy lifting involved in watching it. It's free, it's comfortable to watch because it's so close to TNG in look. But it's not offering anything unique. It's just good enough to watch most of the episodes.

                  I'd like to see them do a fun time travel episode to our time.

                  Seems like it would be kinda like Star Trek 4-ish.

                  Voyager did it but it just wasn't fun

                    Basically the show is already "our time" people hanging out in the future

                      The second you saw Bortis admiring that cigarette, you knew where it was going

                        I'm on West coast time right now, so i haven't seen the whole episode but the smoking was just killing me.

                          The smoking parts were very funny.

                          The holodeck story was ok (not a big fan of love stories) --- Very Next Generation-ish though

                          So far loving this season

                          Nice seeing Tim Russ too

                            seems like they would blend with us too much to make it a fish out of water story

                              I liked it, the holodeck love story was very touching.

                              The smoking part was funny, yes.

                              No one noticed Tuvok???
