MORE SPOILERS - Trek: "SNW: Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow"

[dewline]

Okay, I finally saw the whole thing for myself.

Great performances.

Great visuals.

Toronto gets to be itself on-screen for the first time ever in Trek history.

And yet.

There's one thing that throws me right off...

We have the Temporal Cold War messing with the Eugenics Wars. Khan Noonien Singh's backstory gets pushed over thirty years down the road. Is this a thing that actually needed fixing? Picard Season 2 left Nomad's launch and the Bell Riots alone.

It's almost a so-called "bottle episode" ! See https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BottleEpisode
Using modern day 2022/2023 'ish Toronto instead of expensive future ST sets although I never expected to see a car chase scene in Trek. ;) I also wonder if some of the expense of the car chase was offset by offers of free sets for the advertising! https://goo.gl/maps/gBUQPWntrij83MJ57
As far as time line, we know this isn't supposed to be set in 2023 and it takes many years to build any sort of bridge so there is wiggle room in the timeline. Maybe.

You could make that argument, yes, about this having been a "bottle" episode.

Who else got product placements? DuckDuckGo, for sure!

Considering that the Lake Ontario Bridge is a peer in scale to the likes of the Millennium Gate...both would have taken as long to finish, right?
