thoughts on episode 11 "New Dimensions"
-hilarious opener with Yaphit and Bortus with a scene that can only work in a science fiction show.
-further progress on the Kelly-Mercer relationship seasonal arc plot
-fascinating SF reference to Flatland, which was the first thing I thought about when they went in there.
-interesting that the chief engineer was just temporary, a complete surprise
-will probably miss LaMarr on the bridge; wonder if Isaac will take his chair
-LaMarr finally got his in-depth episode
-LaMarr is played by J. Lee, who hasn't acted a whole lot -- in fact he started in Hollywood as a receptionist -- but does a great job. Good on Seth for empowering an aspiring actor. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2068880/reference
-Lieutenant Dan is becoming a very fun character. Look forward to something amusing with him in future.
-Interesting scene with Yaphit complaining of specieism, especially with the other person being an African-American. Feels like the blob was originally intended for just a couple of funny scenes, but is getting used quite a bit.
-Looks like the relationship between Yaphit and the doctor is calming down.
-Nice seeing the relationship between Isaac and the kids being continued.
-Several funny lines from Isaac this time.
-Two-dimensional space looked very cool!
-Great to hear a Dr. Who reference! Wonder if we'll ever run into a Dr. Who type character somewhere along the way.
