Mudd's Magical Day (Spoilers, as always)

Spoiler

Only one episode today, for reasons.

I did not know to expect Harry Mudd to appear again so quickly.

I am even more convinced that Rainn Wilson knows the character inside and out. The only thing missing...is more flamboyant clothing.

So ole Harry turns up again with a grudge and a time loop. This was a fun episode. Maybe one of my favorites across all the series. Time travel shenanigans before they become major story elements, Lorca dying in multiple creative ways (53, but who's counting?), and a love story all wrapped up in one episode.

Stamets was fun. His new personality after modifying his DNA has been a fun change to witness. I love how everyone is confused by it.

I have virtually no complaints today. There's one I've been holding onto, and it didn't really figure into today's story.

I really don't like the voice of the computer.

In all seriousness, I have always enjoyed the character of Harry Mudd and his self-inflicted issues. I was grinning ear to ear when I realized they had called Stella and her father instead of the Klingons.

Marvellous. Shame he doesn't show up even more.
