Yeah, I couldn't stop thinking about DS9's Duet with this episode. Lots of comparisons, though I think there was a lot more grey-ish morality in the SNW world. War is complicated and it sucks for everyone involved.

I didn't quite get the reference with Spock's arm. Was this supposed to reference something in previous Trek?
You kind of got the feeling the 23rd century officers were all left wondering why 24th century Starfleet is so unprofessional
I don't think it's the difference between 23rd vs 24th century officers, but more a difference between upper deck senior officers and lower decks ensigns.
Oh I didn't know that. Is there some (real life) Star Trek connection that brought them together or is it just some coincidence that they both are on Star Trek?
Or even just the way he was running to catch up with Mariner.
Did you not learn anything from Mariner? Work is gonna be there still ~~five~~ 45 minutes from now.
Also, at the end of the LD Season 4 trailer, Mariner and Boimler mentioned something about "the Pike thing we are not supposed to talk about". Maybe there will be some more LD/SNW developments.
You know the way Boimler was crawling under the communications panel, with his right legs at a 90 degree angle. It was just so perfect embodiment.
I agree. SNW has a really strong cast, and great writers. The show truly can be episodic without referencing any previous canon and still be fantastic and even appreciated more by new watchers of Star Trek.
Toronto passing as New York for characters was so meta and hilarious.
As someone else mentioned in another comment, it's bonkers that SNW can do a cartoon episode, a war episode and a musical episode back-to-back. I love now experimental SNW is!
