I was disappointed that the egg salad sandwich didn't make a reappearance at some point.

Next episode appearance would be great.

Brilliant episode and I"m hard to please though Seth seems to grow fatter 😂

I didn't realise Scott Grimes is married to Adrianne Palicki (who plays Kelly Grayson).

Really? Not the only relationship in there I guess. Seth is apparently with the girl playing Ensign Burke in S3 - and before that he was with the girl who played Lt Kitan in seasons 1 and 2 (the security chief from the high gravity planet).

No nepotism there then.

He’s a lucky guy.

Not really sure how I feel about the latest episode.


Very heavy handed with the "rules are rules" direction, got to feel sorry for older Gordon.

Nice to see Isaac out of costume.

Was half expecting a T2-style biker confrontation

They went a bit star trek 4 with this epsode but it worked well enough. Though they have just invented easy time travel
Gordons moments were touching though

[Insert Coin]

The show goes from strength to strength, it’s excellent and thoroughly enjoyable.

Didn’t like the biker scene either, but it didn’t ruin the episode.

Skipped the last two episodes, this episode is what it is all about, really enjoyed watching it.

Love time travel episodes.

Thought the bit about getting back to their current time was quite clever, theoretically possible too.

Yes very interested, but Red Dwarf had done it before

Seth always used to bemoan The Simpsons for having covered every plot and storyline while writing Family Guy.

I wonder if he's seen Red Dwarf?

For me this episode pulled off the scifi, drama, comedy and storyline to a tee, and for a red dwarf fan over startrek etc, really enjoyed it.

So why not go forward another 400 years...

[eltawater]

They burnt out the time travel device going back the extra 10 years so they'd have no way of going back again if they discovered that their act of leaping ahead another 400 years results in a catastrophic future.

Boldly going forward, 'cause we can't find reverse.

The difference between original Gordon and 10-years-after Gordon was very well done, and not surprising given he thought he had been abandoned.
Odd that the crew were surprised about him marrying his true love, as it was on his bio before the mission began.

Latest episode is pretty good as well though it is similar to an early Star trek tng episode with the planet of the hot females ruleing the males. Felt like there was alot going on int he episode though nearly 3 complete stories in 1.

[Flip Martian]

Yeah enjoyed this week's too. Got to feel sorry for Gordon. Clearly that last time was "enough is enough"

[stemll]

Another excellent episode. Feel for both Isaac and Burke and a bit more silly humour is back
