    I liked how William Boimler was so done with Multiverse fatigue. Felt topical given the current Hollywood trend.

    “Sodium is not a full life” “Maybe it is for me, dammit!” Felt this in my soul.

      Agreed - it was nice to see them tackle multiverse fatigue head-on. It was even nicer to have Lily(!) provide a bit of a rebuttal to it, and argue that such stories don’t have to be hacky.

    I’ve found the season to be a little lacklustre, but I really liked this one. The gags seemed like more than just gags, and the story was more engaging than I thought many of them have been recently.

    Having Jolene Blalock back was a real treat.

      Mike McMahan had an idea that S5 could be the last season before the news was announced, so there was probably some pressure to tie some loose ends instead of focusing on the season arc.

    Rewatching in preparation for the finale, and I keep feeling that the voice of Curzon Dax sounds quite similar to the voice of Odo in DS9. I’m quite aware that Rene Auberjonois passed away not that long ago: may he rest in peace. And I guess he was voiced by Fred Tatasciore (Shaxs), which I can hear too. But I keep hearing Odo which is really nice.
