@@Guruc13 Before Star Trek The Motion Picture, Roddenberry was originally going to write a sequel for TOS which at the time was just called Star Trek Phase II. Xon was going to be a new Vulcan first officer for Kirk on the Enterprise and he was supposed to be a Data-like character, basically learning how to be more human. Then, Phase II was cancelled after the success of Star Wars which is what prompted Gene to write The Motion Picture. So Boimler getting cut is basically a nod to Xon being cut from both Phase II and The Motion Picture since Leonard Nimoy came back to play Spock.
They've stated a few times in the show (both LDS and previously) that holodeck use for training takes precedence over holodeck use for recreation. But yeah, that was pretty rude. Boimler is what they call a "gunner" in law school: Someone willing to do just about anything for a better grade.
@mikey last He's really not. He casually hacked everyone's personal logs (no matter how many secrets they might have held) to create his Ultimate Buttkissing Trainer, and was both dismissive of Rutherford/Tendi's holodeck time and didn't care about what was going on with Mariner. Who knows, maybe next season, Boimler will develop a little more consideration of others. But right now, he's not a very good friend.
Honestly, while I expect one of the main uses of the holodeck would be for porn stuff, I have to imagine at LEAST as much of its usage is to create wonderfully insane LARP scenarios like skeet-shooting with Leondaro Da Vinci. For example, I personally would LOVE to spectate a boxing match between Abraham Lincoln (purported to have strength in his youth that bordered on superhuman) and a Neanderthal...
*@TerminalCarrion ~* As opposed to a friend (Boimler) who barges in and co-opts his friends' (Mariner, Rutherford, Tendi) recreational holodeck time, without waiting for actual permission to do so, so they can boringly watch him practice his brown-nosing? *;p*
@@pendrake40 he actually asked them, they were free to object or refuse but didn’t do so. it was for a practical purpose, and she wasn’t even involved in the simulation, she just sulked in the corner then hijacked his when she figured she could attack the crew as stress relief
I'm actually kind of glad they finally addressed the "All Members of a Species are One Thing" trope. The characters of pretty much every series stereotyped non-humans literally all the time, with those not fitting into their hat being treated as some kind of freakish exception. Honestly, it's not even a character flaw at this point, it's a genre flaw.
@@Robert-hz9bj and how they just assume all other alien races have some kind of unified language and dialect. I’d love a moment where they ask a member of a race to interpret only to be told that they speak different languages and they’re offended by the assumption

I don't know if this was the intention but agencies under HIPPA are required to keep private documents for up to seven years before discarding them. Could be why he couldn't find anything older. I could be wrong though.
An advantage of the simulation is that it's not just based on what she wrote in her private logs, but also what everyone else wrote about her too, including the other senior officers and Beckett (though he'd have no reason to know why her logs would be important yet) including stuff that she might not think is worth including, stuff she might not want to include and things about herself that she doesn't even realise.
"Well tough you're gonna have to wait till it's over." Or Boimler could just say 'Computer End Program' or he could just use that panel that's still on the wall albeit concealed...or he could just walk out the door
@Tin Watchman he was proposed for a 1970's star trek series, but that show was rejected in favor of the Motion Picture. Xon was reintroduced in the RUclips Phase 2 Series.
Why 30 seconds of music and clips we've seen a million times already at the end of less - than - three - minute - video (making it more than 25% of this video)? Couldn't you just include 30 seconds more of the episode you're highlighting, or simply end the video when you ran out of footage? I FF to the next video as soon as your 30 second 'ending' starts up. It's unnecessary filler and, even at just 30 seconds - every video - it's a colossal waste of time.
@@boxtears Holy shit, you are actively watching a clip of her sabotaging her crewmates' program he was going to use to prep for an interview with his captain, just so _she could have fun on the holodeck._ Don't you dare tell me this is a one-off example, you know it's not. The script tries to write her as some "strong independent woman who don't need to play by the rules," but because the script-writers suck at their job, all they've done is create an impulsive brat. I would've demanded her resignation or mine after day one.
@@PeterDivine Actually the script makes it very clear she's got issues, even the Orion chick points it out. You're just so desperate to make her fit into your mary sue narrative that you'll force it any way you can. You're frankly pathetic.
@@PeterDivine you lost your argument the moment you used the word "marry sue" carelessly. a marry sue is an overpowered character with no flaws. it is not a female character you dislike. she doesn`t get away with her conduct she is placed on the brick constantly. as for her personality, she is a season star fleet officer experience enough to be in the enterprise(not a mary sue) who has grown disillusion with star fleet slow bureaucracy. you can see some of these in the episode. with how the planet Starfleet literally just welcome to the federation had one race eating the other race. the rat alien got a replicator to provide them with an alternative but with the lizard alien still as underclass citizens, there`s no guarantee the rat alien will stop eating the lizard aliens. the plane being in peace was more important to star fleet. there are other things like her parents which had push her rebellious nature. she is a developed character. you don`t have to like her as people have different tastes but petty insult shows you have no taste.
@@JayJayM57 Fucking hell, where to even begin... 1. There has been exactly one person who keeps on somehow strawmanning my argument into me claiming her being a Mary Sue, and it ain't me. I defy you to go over the last three posts and see any point, anywhere, where I called her as such. Again, she's not a Mary Sue- she's just a brat and an asshole. 2. Don't you fucking dare cover her conduct with the "loose cannon but a damn good cop" excuse. Way, way more often than not, the things she does to break "star fleet slow bureaucracy" are inexcusably reckless and have only been covered up by writer fiat. Remember when she attacked another member of star fleet simply because she was "too good" for Boimler and therefore _had_ to be a shapeshifter? Remember how she lied to get a crewmate who nearly destroyed the ship with a rogue AI transferred to someone else's crew, making him a ticking time-bomb of failure? Remember how she got a diplomat blackout drunk and let him steal a shuttle before a major peace negotiation? Remember how SHE got drunk and stuck a bat'leth into Boimler's leg?! Oh, that Mariner, what an absolute card! She has never, _never_ apologized or felt remorse for anything she's touched, and her unfettered recklessness that is a danger to herself and others is glossed over by her nepotist mother-captain (because apparently Star Fleet is centuries in the future and forgot what a conflict-of-interest is. Huh, oh well!) But all of that, ALL of it, is made exponentially worse by her complete and utter refusal to be aware of any of it. It was literally personified in her fucking _face_ this episode, and she still couldn't see it. She is a trash character for trash admirers. She is indefensible.

wait who's Winger Bingston?
He did the one man show after Freeman's scat jazz in episode 4.
Why 30 seconds of music and clips we've seen a million times already at the end of less - than - three - minute - video (making it more than 25% of this video)? Couldn't you just include 30 seconds more of the episode you're highlighting, or simply end the video when you ran out of footage? I FF to the next video as soon as your 30 second 'ending' starts up. It's unnecessary filler and, even at just 30 seconds - every video - it's a colossal waste of time.
Oh god i just realized how effed up star trek is to AIs.
Give her more time, they said. Mariner becomes a better character in later episodes, they said.
Jesus Christ, man.
What exactly is your problem with her you fucking twerp?
@@boxtears Holy shit, you are actively watching a clip of her sabotaging her crewmates' program he was going to use to prep for an interview with his captain, just so _she could have fun on the holodeck._ Don't you dare tell me this is a one-off example, you know it's not.
The script tries to write her as some "strong independent woman who don't need to play by the rules," but because the script-writers suck at their job, all they've done is create an impulsive brat. I would've demanded her resignation or mine after day one.
@@PeterDivine Actually the script makes it very clear she's got issues, even the Orion chick points it out. You're just so desperate to make her fit into your mary sue narrative that you'll force it any way you can. You're frankly pathetic.
@@PeterDivine you lost your argument the moment you used the word "marry sue" carelessly. a marry sue is an overpowered character with no flaws. it is not a female character you dislike. she doesn`t get away with her conduct she is placed on the brick constantly. as for her personality, she is a season star fleet officer experience enough to be in the enterprise(not a mary sue) who has grown disillusion with star fleet slow bureaucracy. you can see some of these in the episode. with how the planet Starfleet literally just welcome to the federation had one race eating the other race. the rat alien got a replicator to provide them with an alternative but with the lizard alien still as underclass citizens, there`s no guarantee the rat alien will stop eating the lizard aliens. the plane being in peace was more important to star fleet. there are other things like her parents which had push her rebellious nature. she is a developed character. you don`t have to like her as people have different tastes but petty insult shows you have no taste.
@@JayJayM57 Fucking hell, where to even begin...
1. There has been exactly one person who keeps on somehow strawmanning my argument into me claiming her being a Mary Sue, and it ain't me. I defy you to go over the last three posts and see any point, anywhere, where I called her as such. Again, she's not a Mary Sue- she's just a brat and an asshole.
2. Don't you fucking dare cover her conduct with the "loose cannon but a damn good cop" excuse. Way, way more often than not, the things she does to break "star fleet slow bureaucracy" are inexcusably reckless and have only been covered up by writer fiat. Remember when she attacked another member of star fleet simply because she was "too good" for Boimler and therefore _had_ to be a shapeshifter? Remember how she lied to get a crewmate who nearly destroyed the ship with a rogue AI transferred to someone else's crew, making him a ticking time-bomb of failure? Remember how she got a diplomat blackout drunk and let him steal a shuttle before a major peace negotiation? Remember how SHE got drunk and stuck a bat'leth into Boimler's leg?! Oh, that Mariner, what an absolute card!
She has never, _never_ apologized or felt remorse for anything she's touched, and her unfettered recklessness that is a danger to herself and others is glossed over by her nepotist mother-captain (because apparently Star Fleet is centuries in the future and forgot what a conflict-of-interest is. Huh, oh well!) But all of that, ALL of it, is made exponentially worse by her complete and utter refusal to be aware of any of it. It was literally personified in her fucking _face_ this episode, and she still couldn't see it.
She is a trash character for trash admirers. She is indefensible.
This show is good, but Final Space is a better show.
Shutup Kevin
That was so bad
