The way it was presented was Leland was control and that was it (though they have shown control to take over other people). As soon as he was destroyed all the enemy ships just stopped didnt they? Which kind of supports that.

I suppose the only justification (other than the meta need for the closing of plot holes) was that there could have been a control copy/proxy around and it was a safety first move. Otherwise it seems like something of a break down in logic for me.

Not that I hold it against the show too much, I think it basically worked - and worked better than I would have thought, it just jarred in my mind at the time and still niggles a bit.

just had a look on reddit and this makes sense


They were very vague about it, but I think there was a difference between control, the AI from the present, and Leland/Control, who was from the future.

from a plot point, yes they needed to do it due to the fact Discovery is never talked about in the later series and this is a convenient way of it happening and no one talking about it. From the point of was it necessary, I didn't actually think about it, was all of control in Layland i.e. was killing him what stopped control or the fact they took the data away.

I thought yesterday's episode was good. Better than the first one. It seems like they have got enough intrigue to carry them through the season. Maybe the last season was brick because they had to get all their ducks lined up and we will see the benefit of that this season. There was a lot of political intrigue in the last episode which is where Thrones is strongest for me.
 
Noticed that The Handmaid’s Tale box set was available on NowTV (after catching up with the latest episode of Game of Thrones) last night so finally sat down to the first episode which was promising... felt a bit like an episode of Black Mirror...
 
Bosch (Season 5). Barry (Season 2). Happy (Season 2). Ramy. & What We Do In The Shadows.
All reasonably entertaining..
 
Completed season 2 of Star Trek Discovery, it is simply brilliant, just brilliant. Sonequa Martin-Green is perfect as Michael Burnham, Anson Mount's portrayal of Christopher Pike is the best on screen and you can tell Michelle Yeogh just had fun. I am looking forward to season 3
