    Totally agree with you. One of the things that I love about LDS is that it’s not just by and for fans of the show - that’s more or less a given with any longstanding franchise - but that it’s about fans of the show.

    My favourite scene in the most recent episode was Mariner geeking out over getting to hang out with Data. It worked because that’s how we’d all react if we got to hang out with Data. ‘Aw, respect. I’d go back for Geordi, too’ was a fantastic line because it was both funny and felt completely real to all the TNG fans.

      Personally I loved

      Mariner’s obsession with Picard’s experience in The Inner Light.

      For comedic value the way they did it was perfect, but I can’t help but wish we could have seen more of her experience during the episode.
