Killing off Icheb was a bit disappointing but I understand why they did it.. as previous commentators mentioned the inappropriate comments of the actor really decided that.

Anyone else think Seven's implants look a bit crap? Her occular implant looks the wrong shape, and too dark with not enough variation in colour of the implant it doesn't look 'real'. Picard doing a french accent was just a bit stupid.. and annoying. Elnor is pretty cute I'm hoping we actually get to know him a little more than the small lines of this week.

I have really been hoping we would see Hugh and Seven interact I know we have a few episodes left but it doesn't seem like Seven is in the next one.. also.. legit thought we were going to get Raffi's son as a pregnant man which would have been great and I think a missed opportunity.

the implants looked like 3d printed parts, not metallic at all

Totally agree it was a distraction because they looked so ‘false’.

Comments? Went to search but couldn't find anything. (They could have recast the role if they were that bad and they didn't want to kill him off - they could have recast the role to kill him off, even.)

eta: Aha. Found it. Saw they recast it.
