This is cool on multiple levels! First, I'm delighted that @sfxmagazine.bsky.social and Darren got the chance to chat to Karim, who just seems lovely, but also @g33kymick.bsky.social is good people too!
Like anyone else under embargo, I can't go into details. Let me just say this - Kraag is great!

For #StarTrek fans who didn't get the memo, SFX Magazine is now housed online over at CinemaBlend. Darren got the first crack at the cast of Starfleet Academy, and I've written up a couple of the fantastic things that came from his interviews. Starting with this!

Sam Richardson was fantastic as Quasi and I would legitimately like to see him return as the character in some way.
Ok I think enough time has passed for me to lay down this challenge:
Say something nice about S31 (and not the fact that it ended you silly geese!)
Humberly Gonzalez was legit great as Melle, however short a time she was there for!

I always hear people talk about all the junk Netflix puts out. I watched over 100 movies that came out this year, and can say that while a good few of them are bad, these 6 are absolutely worth your time:

The President of the United States just posted a fucking victory lap condolences tweet saying Rob Reiner was killed because he drove his son crazy talking about the Trump administration all the time. What a fucking world.

I don't know if I'm weird for this or not, but I looooove watching the old Max Fleischer compilation of Christmas cartoons every Christmas on Amazon Prime. My mema used to have this on tape growing up and it's so nostalgic for me.

Big thanks to @columbia1938 for sending along their latest in their annual #StarWars collaboration. The Endor Collection goes live on their website on December 11th and at select Columbia retailers. There’s a ton more stuff available beyond this so check it out for the little Leia in your life.

To quote my good friend @g33kymick.bsky.social -
'I bet everyone is going to be totally normal in their reactions to this'
I was RAISED on teen dramas - I legitimately would like a Trek themed one! *ducks from the tomatoes and rotten fruit*

In the absence of Star Trek I've resorted to watching Alaskan Bush People. It's fucking terrible but I can't stop.

I started watching Alaskan Bush People thanks to TikTok, and it's peak trash TV. Just watching a family of idiots claim they have what it takes to live in the wilderness of Alaska and almost constantly failing at every turn.

Paramount+ is cancelling shows and losing one of its biggest creators, and apparently, it wants you to pay a dollar extra a month for the trouble.

Everyone keeps shitting on that video of the Michael Jackson impersonator watching the trailer for Michael like “How embarassing you’re not him.” Ok, but like, he surgically changed his face to look like him. I’d say he’s a super fan who is going to have a strong reaction.

It sounds impressive until you realize 127 MILLION people watched last year’s Super Bowl. This is hardly a measurable percentage.
