Spoilers Star Trek: Lower Decks 4x07 - "A Few Badgeys More"
- Thread starter Commander Richard
- Start date
The Boimler/Tendi/Agamus stuff was good. Not a big fan of the Rutherford/Mariner/Badgey stuff.
The voice work by both Combs and McBrair was really good.
I don’t believe in Peanut Hampers face turn but anything is possible I suppose.
I thought the alien ship was a V’Ger type deal where it was taking the ships and digitizing them or something. But until this episode, I missed that only the crews were being taken and the ships were being destroyed. I’d bet that whatever is going on there happens to the Cerritos crew in episode 9 leading to the season finale. Or it happens in the season finale and the season ends on a cliffhanger.
Did not see the Bynars Lower Deckers coming but it was great. Has anyone slowed down their voices to see if you can make out what they are saying?
I’ll give this one a 7/10. It was good but not great. Kinda sorta felt like a filler episode.

As always, that was fun! Jeffrey Combs and Kether Donohue are awesome and Jack did a great job with the different aspects of Badgey. LOVED the "Starfleet can't fix this in an hour" line!
He did not appear to be breaking rocks. 
Tom was repairing some kind of equipment at the New Zealand penal facility.

But he still fought the law... and the law won.

This one was pretty good. I've never been a fan of Badgey, don't care much for Peanut Hamper, so I wasn't as invested in this one, but there were still a lot of fun scenes, and it's always good when Jeffrey Combs is around to bring his incredible presence to any Trek outing.
This one just didn’t do it for me. Weakest of the season for me. The B plot was well enough but Badgey is just a ridiculous concept in my opinion. Great to see the Bynars. Wish we’d get to the point of this mysterious ship.
I thought for sure once Goodgey showed up that this was going to end just like TOS The Alternative Factor with Badgey and Goodgey trapped fighting each other eternally, just like Lazarus.

Solid episode. Good gags.
Not a Peanut Hamper fan, though.

Trying to figure out the character inversions that all three AI characters made. One moment they're evil electronic megalomaniacs, the next... ???
That might be one of the densest episodes of LD. And LD does some really packed shows. I almost feel I need to watch it again.
I gave it a 9 because I'm holding back my 10s.
The look on Boimler's face when Agimus turns blue at the end was priceless. This was a terrific episode for Combs and McBrayer. (Donohue had more to do last season.) I loved Logicey. (It dulled the ache of a T'lyn-less episode.)
Nice way of not so much pulling the rug out from under us as much as just saying "Nope! It's NOT Badgey."
Tendi and SAND.
Nice pandering to the Niners. Thank you.
