Hahahaha! I expect that well have her in the world and all of those things. She strikes me as no different than Barkley. While Im excited to get back to the 32nd century and see whats changed since season 3 Im still not excited for the season itself. The Terra Firma arc introduced the real Mirror Universe version of Tilly (aka Captain Killy). She is super meta. When Mary Wisemans Lt. Sylvia Tilly left the USS Discovery for a job at the new Starfleet Academy in the fourth episode of season four, it was promised she would be back. Acceptance?

If that scene reflects something she regularly incorporates into her real-life, then I think she will be just fine and she can tell the haters to go pound salt. It seems like people like her say: this is me. I am a therapist in real life, and even *I* think it was crazy that they had a therapist on the bridge. She gets up in the morning and lives with a purpose, helping her crewmates, and ready to make the ultimate sacrifice if necessary. Now if it turns out, Burnham was being influenced by an alien entity or she has been given insight into the future which made it imperative that she rush Tilly into becoming the Number One, then I can accept it. Im sorry youve had to experience that and I strongly urge you to take what comfort you can from whatever source you can, regardless of how other people feel about that source. Maybe its just me, but I dont really care about women or mens weight on TV shows, I dont care for negative comments on them by haters, but neither do I care for the actors/actresses making such a whiney big deal about it. Ridiculous or not, it has been well established in Trek canon that starships have counselors/therapists, and they are often used by the crew. David Ajala: I would be very dangerous. I like me. He was non-military, the same height as me, and easily weighed 300#. And how and how would your abilities be used in the Mirror Universe? She could of made it what we call General American/mid-Atlantic to neutralize it a little. She let go in S4 of her parents expectations and embraced a new purpose. David, Can we expect any surprising uses of the special things that Book can do in season four, now that he can control the spore drive? For people who dont know, it had to do with Voyager leading a fleet of ships going back to the Delta Quadrant a few years after Voyager arrived home. I wonder what the advertisers behind this site think of posts like this. I saw someone just last month asking on a Facebook fanpage if Starfleet had some kind of physical fitness standard and if so, shes violating it, ect.the same old idiotic abusive misogyny disguised as genuine concern. Do you see that tension? Let's get into the details of the actress's weight gain, which has also been linked to her pregnancy. And I just really love having Janeway back. Took time to reset the franchise. I love Tilly. In large part that is down to getting set in my ways with this franchise, so I have to temper my critiques with that knowledge. Shes a product of poor writing, constantly ditzy and trying to be the light relief to the point where its eye rolling. To be honest I think she is more attractive than the mostly skinny cast of most series. In her interview with TrekMovie last week, Discovery co-showrunner Michelle Paradise echoed these sentiments: Well never be done with Tilly. Season four of Star Trek: Discovery arrives on Thursday, November 18 on Paramount+. I do find their quirks annoying at times, but the most important reason I like them is because theyre honest, kind people with a good heart. David Ajala: Legit, its still very palpable here. Its 2020 and were taking any more of your sh!t. It makes sense there would be and that they be a part of the medical team. Plus, TNG literally had a therapist as part of the bridge crew. There is a wealth of other outlets for health and fitness information, that frankly are more dispassionate and factual than getting health and fitness info from celebrities. Perhaps they had a second or third language that they use regularly. When Mary Wiseman's Lt. Sylvia Tilly left the USS Discovery for a job at the new Starfleet Academy in the fourth episode of season four, it was promised she would be back. Like her prime universe counterpart, Tilly was portrayed by Mary Wiseman.. Tilly was presumably killed when the Discovery was destroyed in the prime universe.. Apocrypha. I LOVE the future! However, we do know that David Mack does. It means something to me. I think Saru holds out as being the most consistent, and Tilly is close, but not quite. all the outfits here are golden IMO but those shoes murder! Mary Wiseman (born July 30, 1985) is an American actress. Plenty of curvy ladies are quite healthy and active. And it could fit nicely with Chakotays story on the show and that hes also in the DQ for the mission and now has to find the ship. American actress Mary Wiseman payed several smaller roles in the past but recently gained a big recognition as Cadet Sylvia Tilly in new iteration of Star Trek franchise called Star trek: Discovery. As soon as she was, they should have rewritten Tilly from being a cadet to being a lieutenant or something. Obesity and overweight are associated with health chronic issues by definition. The Enterprise D was the only place we saw a councelor. So many reasons to be critical of Disco plot holes, awful sense of morals, missed opportunities, etc. Unless you want to count Ezri Dax she was a therapist but I dont believe she heald a high ranking command position. Im glad for you that you didnt find him annoying. Loved that show, so did my wife. I hope that Wiseman uses that info into the future because it does work for fat burning and muscle building. Something happened to Tilly (Wiseman) and Bryce (Rowe). | March 22, 2022 | KevinB: Oh, I agree with you, in the sense that nothing is perfect and there are flaws and issues here and there. Learning? WTF this is why Ive been following Star Trek since the original in 1967 when I saw Nichelle Nichols. Exactly. But its the elephant we have in the room, these days. Everybody does NOT love Tilly. Even Picard has his own show. Unfortunately PICARD turned out to be set in the same period, so it derailed my plans, although later I did figure out a way to explain the considerable differences in the Prime Universe.
His Voyager appearances were also horrid. Weve seen Captain Killy, so what does Mirror Universe Book look like? Saru would then recognize the potential in her, give her opportunities to build her self esteem and confidence, and wed get a good arc that doesnt seem forced like it does now. That was why she was never in uniform the first few seasons. My only issue with Captain Killy is that she died that wonderful red hair blonde. That way she wont get the appearance she does now of jumping over more experienced officers and seeming to just get ahead because shes Sarus favorite. And yeah the Full Circle stories do sound a bit depressing especially since SPOILER ALERT they kill off Janeway in them!
Star Trek: Discovery | Tilly Chooses To Live | Paramount+ But respect is always earned and never enforceable. Where did all the good writers go?? New episodes of Star Trek: Discovery premiere on Thursdays on CBS All Access in the U.S. and on CTV Sci-Fi Channel in Canada, where it's also available to stream on Crave. Ive read plenty of well-deserved criticism of the writing but to my knowledge, there has been no widespread criticism of STD acting or physical appearances. You know, like a psychotic murderer? You know what, fvck you, Vulcan Soul. But its at least nice they came to their senses with that ridiculous story turn (unlike Kirk). The show will roll out on Paramount Plus in the US, and is expected to stream on Netflix elsewhere. At New York Comic Con, TrekMovie participated in some group interviews with members of the cast and crew,. Where is this? Even though he is one of the worst characters in Trek, he was the main focus in arguably the best episode of Voyager: Timeless. Sonequa is by all accounts probably the best or one of the best chef de compagnie of all the Trek series. And Im even more embarrassed by this, but Ive never watched any of the Stargate shows. Star Trek: Discovery's Mary Wiseman and Blu del Barrio reflect on their character's journeys and the possibilities ahead. You can start with those or the later books in the Time to sequence without significant confusion. It makes it quite American centric. By indicating that shes not ashamed of her body? Shes changed. Every Thursday night I yell Black Alert to let everyone know Im watching Star Trek. What tradition do you speak of? Jury still out on Books character.definitely ahead of the 2 dimensional bridge crew though. This show has disrespected the actress with poor development and no real storyline except oh hey, im awkward guys. Be sure to watch Mary Wiseman "Killying it" as Ensign Sylvia Tilly on Star Trek: Discovery. I have only heard of the details a few months ago thanks to a video that TrekCentral (amazing YouTube channel) made about it for Prodigy theorizing a connection. Tilly (Mary Wiseman) leads the stranded Starfleet cadets to safety. I never thought of Adira as being all that similar, but I see your point. It is not yet known what role, if any, Wisemans Tilly would have in the upcoming season, with possibilities ranging from guest or recurring character to becoming a series regular again. Lol. In season three Tilly was first officer and then acting captain; how does all of that affect who she is in season four? Tillys great contribution is that shes NOT that sort of superwoman most people can never be. Tilly is the product of lazy writing and a lazy showrunner. But it would seem to me that it might ought to be standard practice to have a Betazed on the bridge on all starships if those stills were so needed. After Burnham (Sonequa Martin-Green) and Tilly (Mary Wiseman) journey to a planet alongside Burnham's mother Gabrielle (Sonja Sohn), things get a little hairy when the Qowat Milat nun they're . This was her character and then had perhaps one or two incidents where she became a little more focused and then off screen came back a different person. The accent is too colloquial. We need to examine our highest ideals and allegiances to reveal our preconceived notions, shallow knee-jerk reactions, and find the truth about our choices. Just when it looks like the character has finally grown as a person and doing her own thing, comes right back. What do you mean? BTW, I know this is waaaaaay off topic, but since you are the literary Trek lover on this site and keep up with a lot of the books, do you think Prodigy is going to use some of Kirsten Beyers Full Circle Voyager story lines? Why do you think being nervous or anxious means that you can not graduate from the academy? Just a heads up (even more way off topic), for those who liked SG , IMO the Atlantis book Legacy series was quite good, telling the story of what happened after the finale. Why is that a command level position? By the way, could of isnt English. I see them as similar. David Ajala: What about Grudge in the mirror universe? Barclays ticks do get really annoying. Star Trek Universe on TV at TrekMovie.com, Star Trek: Discovery Season 5 May Be Coming Soon, According To Wilson Cruz [UPDATED], Podcast: All Access Scans For All The Latest Star Trek Universe News, Star Trek Lower Decks Nominated For Annie Award; Discovery For NAACP And GLAAD Awards, http://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/trekmovie.com/podcast-player/97519/all-access-picard-episode-303-seventeen-seconds-review-discovery-ending-future-of-star-trek-discussion.mp3, http://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/trekmovie.com/podcast-player/97356/shuttle-pod-113-star-trek-picard-season-3-chat-on-the-next-generation-disengage.mp3, http://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/trekmovie.com/podcast-player/97216/all-access-review-of-star-trek-picard-episode-302-disengage.mp3, http://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/trekmovie.com/podcast-player/96813/all-access-review-of-star-trek-picard-episode-301-the-next-generation.mp3, http://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/trekmovie.com/podcast-player/96521/all-access-suplimental-john-billingsley-interview.mp3. Im glad you figured out what works for you, but Im not cool with a Star Trek board in 2021 focusing on an actors weight or appearance, especially when its a man commenting on a womans weight. The burden is now on SNWThat show can either make or break it with regards to these issues. I would ask our family doctor, Is there anything you can give me thatll make me gain weight?'. Lets stick with the science and not target individuals. Btw, I really liked the scene of Tilly and Burnham running back in S1 and eating protein, carbs and fat post workout. Its sci-fi, brah.
'Star Trek: Discovery' Season 4 Episode 13 Recap: A - TVLine I highly doubt the writers decided to just write her off for the hell of it (especially given how much everyone in the cast and crew love her). I recall when Trek featured a French captain with an English accent. And another way to look at it: at least its not another hour of tv taken by a reality show, right? I did, though. Not everyone is skinny and not everyone likes skinny. Mary Wiseman: We dont have that many scenes together but theres a lot of tension between us just as actors and personalities. There are characters you really cherish and others that are fun but ultimately nothing special. And I know Chakotay was also Captain on Voyager in those books as well. I agree 100%. Mary shouldnt listen to the haters and Sonequa, I never noticed she looked any different than she did before, body wise. Id add Kirk to that at several times over the years. What I should point out though is that Mack earned the moniker Angel of Death among the Litverse fans. Finally, actress Rekha Sharma shared this fun behind-the-scenes photo with Doug Jones and David Benjamin Tomlinson, where she lamented Landry being killed off yet again. That however does nothing to mitigate the way Burnham has been written to be unforgivably self-absorbed throughout many of the key moments of the series. Obviously I dont know what M. Wiseman is like. We use cookies to ensure that we give you the best experience on our website. Probably some admirals cousin. With predictive spelling and multiple languages available, incorrect word choice is a constant threat even when one does type in the correct word. I think Mary Wiseman is a fantastic actress..the writing for Tilly is an abomination. :). Tilly is part Wesley Crusher and part Barclay. And second of all, just to dig into it, you dont always get to see a woman like me in that sort of position. Ive seen fan-fics with better characters than this. Thematic darkness is fine but graphic visuals arent. 108 comments so far. Nice girl but still jostling with Burnham as the most annoying character on the show. Key difference in thinking, and it makes all the difference in the big picture! Stupid decision to bring her back.
Mary Wiseman Weight Gain - Before & After Photos Exposed - Mixedarticle Her character of Cadet Tilly in Star Trek Discovery is warm and positive. That sort of thing contributes to some pretty hardcore dysmorphia sure, they are famous and have luxuries and money so many of us dont, but hearing stories like how Carrie Fisher was told she should lose weight to be able to reprise Leia, or how Kumail Nanjani is scarily fixated on his physical appearance now is sad. I guess some people would rather the perfect people of TNG than anyone that mirrors back anything they dont want to see in themselves. Especially when there were just so many more qualified people for the job on and off the ship. Everybody loves Tilly. Except the writers of course. Where are they!? No spoilers in case I ever decide to actually the write the thing, but youd love it as a DS9 fan. They told us and a handful of other outlets what to expect for their characters and more. Saying that its the job of actors to tell people whats healthy and whats not is the problem, not a solution. She opted that she had a different calling within the world of teaching and, in the end, she decided that she wanted to chase that feeling. Except that would imply that her being there was the exception rather than the rule. Shes supposed to set the example. Originally I imagined him as Denzel Washington or Blair Underwood, but after belatedly watching The Wire and Luther I think Idris Elba would be a really good match. Sharing? The writing for him is trying in season 1, but from Samaritan Snare onwards I actually think hes kinda endearing and has decent utility. They should all try for the standards of randos on the internet like you Between Marys comments about how Tilly internalizes her experiences as acting First Officer and Captain and the fact that we see Gen Rhys in the big chair in one of the early production stills, does anyone think that Discovery might get Treks first regular series Asian First Officer? I hope Mary Wiseman is okay or has a good reason for her weight gain since S1. It is constantly exposing the never ending struggle of smart and talented woman of color. It took this for me to finally accept who I am. Anyway it was just a thought.
Star Trek: Discovery Boss Explains That Tilly Reveal - Yahoo! News She isnt back on Discovery. Star Trek: Discovery Season 5 May Be Coming Soon, According To Wilson Cruz [UPDATED], Podcast: All Access Scans For All The Latest Star Trek Universe News, Star Trek Lower Decks Nominated For Annie Award; Discovery For NAACP And GLAAD Awards, http://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/trekmovie.com/podcast-player/97519/all-access-picard-episode-303-seventeen-seconds-review-discovery-ending-future-of-star-trek-discussion.mp3, http://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/trekmovie.com/podcast-player/97356/shuttle-pod-113-star-trek-picard-season-3-chat-on-the-next-generation-disengage.mp3, http://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/trekmovie.com/podcast-player/97216/all-access-review-of-star-trek-picard-episode-302-disengage.mp3, http://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/trekmovie.com/podcast-player/96813/all-access-review-of-star-trek-picard-episode-301-the-next-generation.mp3, http://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/trekmovie.com/podcast-player/96521/all-access-suplimental-john-billingsley-interview.mp3. My personal opinion is, if you see ribs in their low decolletage, they are probably not so healthy. I read somewhere that Gates McFadden and Marina Sirtis had somewhere in their contract a stipulation that they had to fit into their costumes. Story: With . My suspicion is they farm this out to sweatshops somewhere in Asia. Its gotten very stale now. Smart doesnt mean competent. In fact most of their fears and phobias were explored in various episodes. Every character aboard that ship represents a minority. A rare, successful example of this is James Gunns Guardians otG and Suicide Squad, in which a similar premise is treated comedically yet with a touch of sincerity, so as not to devolve into outright farce. But I did not watch DIS S4 either. Just take a little trip down the hellhole that is a tabloids message boards and youll see the kind of body shaming of male and female actors and celebrities that exists out there. Star Trek: Discoverystreams exclusively onParamount+in the U.S. I cant spoil anything into season five, except to say that we love Tilly. And the only family she has is on that ship. Its been a continuing book series since 2009 and still going. Sad but true, yet we always opt to genuflect in the direction of the elephant. There is a great scene back in S1 when Tilly and Burnham are doing cardio training and post workout are eating their protien, carbs and fat nutrition, something that the body requires after a hard cardio workout. Having a discussion about healthy weights, healthy eating and physical activity and how thats important is a good Star Trek message.
