[laughs] Everybody loves Tilly. That was always the theory I had for Barclay. David, Can we expect any surprising uses of the special things that Book can do in season four, now that he can control the spore drive? But my initial annoyed response to DISCO in particular, well, Ive let go of that in the past two years, as life is too short to get all worked-up angry over personal quibbles with a tv show. And tons dont. It was a novelty in his first story and they turned it on its head when he got zapped and made super-smart, but most of the time hes very trying, especially when he gets thrown onto Voyager. By: TrekMovie.com Staff None of us are and its okay. So. Keep up the great work ladies! The writing for him is trying in season 1, but from Samaritan Snare onwards I actually think hes kinda endearing and has decent utility. For people who dont know, it had to do with Voyager leading a fleet of ships going back to the Delta Quadrant a few years after Voyager arrived home. Sonequa is by all accounts probably the best or one of the best chef de compagnie of all the Trek series. Andrew: Great, perceptive, thoughtful post! Would a woman watching this aspire to be a Tilly or aspire to be a Dax, Kira or Janeway? I agree, the writing, character development, and story telling needs to improve. There are still things that bother me about the new trek too. I dont understand this at all. DSC had many issues at the beginning. A Stitch in Time kicks off the Garak/Cardassian books and is excellent. Its very possible Mary Wiseman wanted off the show, or needed a bit of a break. In fact most iterations of Trek the actors have provided a neutral delivery of their native accent. Took time to reset the franchise. I keep reading that no character like hers should not be in starfleet, yet she is. Like damn the guy's 90 ffs give him a break. For what its worth Picard has an excellent cast, male and female, it just feels they are one or two notches above their discovery peers, maybe again due to writing/direction. I just hope now that she has been made captain, all her baggage will be finally gone. This sounds kind of racist. However, the problem with Tilly (and this really is more of a Star Trek Discovery problem because it exists with every character they do this to) is that she never made strides or attempts to improve. Although it is true that on *average*, overweight people are less healthy than other people, it is also entirely possible to be overweight and healthy. I could watch Tilly all day! Have to completely agree you T2. Gee, so some Trek fans can be @$$holes. In fact now I think of it, Book aside everyone has an American accent. This week's episode raised concerns. All are different. The Enterprise D was the only place we saw a councelor. The last novel just came out last year (where does she find the time lol). Btw, I really liked the scene of Tilly and Burnham running back in S1 and eating protein, carbs and fat post workout. Season four of Star Trek: Discovery arrives on Thursday, November 18 on Paramount+. Like a lot of people, she pivoted and found herself in a new role as teacher. That sucks, but that is just the way it goes. The reason why Troi was on the bridge all the timewas that she was a betazoid. I personally have battled weight issues all my life since high school and when I am eating healthy and trainng hard, I feel great and can do almost anything (power skating, fast hockey, tons of physical activity) meanwhile the opposite is true when I let myself go (and that does happen). I dont read the same type of criticism for their male actors. all the outfits here are golden IMO but those shoes murder! Somehow these insecure people feel others not like them are a threat to how they see themselves and how the world should, in their opinion, be. Its gotten very stale now. So her appearances ended up not being 100% awful. It is one thing to be healthy and quite another to be reed-thin and healthy. She is relatable and human and wonderful. She wrote ten books based around this concept and still writing them. For me I love how it deals with social logic as well as technology. Just when it looks like the character has finally grown as a person and doing her own thing, comes right back. Promoting her to the first officer was stupid enough, but now shes leading at the Academy? Paradise was most likely referring to the shows production and creative teams. Please dont ban me!). The mirror Tilly and the ISS Discovery appear in the "Mirror of Discovery" storyline in Star Trek Online, as part of the game's 9th anniversary in January 2019; she is voiced by Mary Wiseman, who also . David Ajala: The first thing that comes to mind, is maybe hes a borderline narcissist, vry egotistical, and self-absorbed. Samarkand? But Tilly and the nervous mess Adira has devolved into? As an actress and a person I dont mind her at all, shes lovely. Assuming you are American, Im from outside America where it makes a huge difference in how the characters comes across.America is not the world as Morrissey once said. They should all try for the standards of randos on the internet like you And Tilly is the Trekkie. Mary Wiseman is sending the message that your body is your own, your responsibility, and nobody elses business, not any sort of health and fitness message. Its all relative, but I dont see a lot of actors being body-shamed. Actress Mary Wiseman did a series of media . I am a therapist in real life, and even *I* think it was crazy that they had a therapist on the bridge. (Hey, Im likely one of the oldest people here, and its too easy/lazy to remain stuck in the 1960s and 70s! It doesnt look like unhealthy curvy but just different type of genes. Btw have you come across any good DS9 books about what happened to Sisko or the rest of the crew after the finale? GD, what shoes is David wearing in those pics? The reed-thin part sometimes involves unhealthy behaviors. Neither she nor anyone else with common sense is celebrating obesity. Maybe not but what are your thoughts? I think people need that kind of thing to heal. It has also been speculated that Wiseman may be moving over to the proposed Starfleet Academy show openly discussed by Alex Kurtzman and Paramount+ execs but not yet officially ordered as a series. David Ajala: What about Grudge in the mirror universe? Why did they do that? Star Trek: Discovery Season 5 May Be Coming Soon, According To Wilson Cruz [UPDATED], Podcast: All Access Scans For All The Latest Star Trek Universe News, Star Trek Lower Decks Nominated For Annie Award; Discovery For NAACP And GLAAD Awards, http://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/trekmovie.com/podcast-player/97519/all-access-picard-episode-303-seventeen-seconds-review-discovery-ending-future-of-star-trek-discussion.mp3, http://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/trekmovie.com/podcast-player/97356/shuttle-pod-113-star-trek-picard-season-3-chat-on-the-next-generation-disengage.mp3, http://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/trekmovie.com/podcast-player/97216/all-access-review-of-star-trek-picard-episode-302-disengage.mp3, http://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/trekmovie.com/podcast-player/96813/all-access-review-of-star-trek-picard-episode-301-the-next-generation.mp3, http://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/trekmovie.com/podcast-player/96521/all-access-suplimental-john-billingsley-interview.mp3. The message she is sending how? But then again Im not a troll. Not everyone is skinny and not everyone likes skinny. Which I think would be a tremendous mistake. I suspect that Prodigy may use some of the elements that Beyer expanded or created for Full Circle without actually developing any of the overall story arc. 1:15. But Im just happy we are talking about Voyager again, especially since this show is basically a spin off of it! Whereas Tilly is an oh shes just like me and validates all my insecurities so its ok to be as I am. So I think we pick up with her after some time has passed since the events of that season, but shes still sort of not really sure what to make of it, and everything that used to be really comfortable isnt sitting as comfortably as it used to if that makes sense. I know Gene Rodenberry never wanted Starfleet to be portrayed as a military outfit, but this has gone so far in the opposite direction that its being run like a pre-school participation awards ceremony. Maybe Saru wont be on the ship as much but Im guessing they are going the same direction. Her empathic abilities work via viewscreens? But the nu left that this show panders to cant accept any opinion that isnt in agreement with it so they try to immediately invalidate it. Mary Wiseman. You made very good points and I do agree. ;). Respectfully, to anyone somehow offended by that. She could of made it what we call General American/mid-Atlantic to neutralize it a little. Too nervous and anxious. Internationally, the series is available on Paramount+ in Australia, Latin America and the Nordics, and on Pluto TV in Austria, France, Germany . We have no information that Beyer consults in this show. Shes responsible for her subordinates and to lead by example. I agree 100%. Although the last TNG with Trois mom wasnt terrible. I hope that Wiseman uses that info into the future because it does work for fat burning and muscle building. And Kirsten Beyer probably consults on that show too along with her duties on Picard and Discovery, so its possible at least. But Barclay is just irritating as hell.

Ridiculous or not, it has been well established in Trek canon that starships have counselors/therapists, and they are often used by the crew. I dont think youre ready for that kind of interaction, online, or anywhere else. That finale appearance was basically a cameo. From the next episode on season 3 which was at least okay up to that point started to completely fall apart. Mary Wiseman Net Worth The net worth of Mary Wiseman has been estimated at $1 million. That is why you never saw councelors on any other class ship. This show has been for a niche of Trek fandom not the mainstream. My best advice is to give some of the Litverse books a try and decide for yourself which writers appeal to you. David Ajala: I think its made Cleveland Booker even more attracted to Michael Burnham because I think he looks and goes Oh, scrumptious. You had a variety of body shapes on discovery Tilly was thick. I echo your sentiments exactly, David. Where I live people compete on the merits and are proud of their professional or intellectual achievements not their bad habits, bad health or even born with attributes such as divergent sexual orientation that they had no influence over whatsoever. Martin-Green says she has come to accept changes in her body, especially after the birth of her second child shortly before production on season three: With my first pregnancy I bounced back without trying (which is a crime, by the way, that we expect women to do that after birth rather than focus on healing).
