She has one of those faces that can look so different with a different hair / makeup combo, imo. I didn’t recognise her at all as Mrs McMurray, despite watching the entire Wynonna Earp series. Though I did have a “Hey, I’m sure I know her from something” feeling in Star Trek.
In all fairness I am a bit faceblind in general haha.

Captain Seinfeld: “It’s like she has two faces!”
Commander Costanza, hands in the air: “SHE’S A TWO-FACE!”

I’ve been out of the loop on most of the recent series, but there still isn’t really cursing like this in Star Trek, is there? I remember thinking it felt really natural to have the BSG reboot characters yelling “Frak!” all the time. Even though it was technically a PG cuss, the way they made every use of it come out so Anglo Saxon-sounding. It just makes sense that every once in a while someone’s got to get some swears out, even in space.

There’s some honest to goodness swearing on the new streaming Star Trek shows. Their highest concentration is probably on Discovery. The dialog’s written a little differently on the show, and their go-to scene establishing shot on the bridge is three scientists giving very Star Trek comments, and a fourth person earnestly going, “Holy shit this is so cool / extremely dangerous.”
The other shows have a slightly more classic tone, but even Patrick Stewart got an f-bomb off in the third season of Picard. The shows mostly limit it to one-off expletives during firefights. They’re rare enough that you typically don’t even catch them when they come up. They definitely don’t have extended colorful metaphors like “cock-sucker” though. At that point they’ll reach for a sci-fi comment like the Trek film’s “pointy-eared bastard”.
Personally I like the joke someone made a while back about how swearing on Star Trek is a setting the captain gets to make on the universal translator. Picard’s a narc, and Pike’s the cool boss.

I wish! I know starfleet is the epitome of smarts class and innovative humans, but damn, not one shit or fuck with all the stuff they deal with and mental strain applied regularly?!
This is referencing another show she does called Letterkenny as Mrs. McMurray, where she says the nastiest of things on a regular.

This meme might be what gets me into Star Trek

She is only in a little bit in the Strange New Worlds, and nothing like Mrs McCurry, lol. As soon as I saw her though I have not been able to get the idea of her doing a McMurray mumble on a starship. It’s a great show though and has some fun and dramatic episodes mixed in.

I’ve seen every episode of both shows and this didn’t occur to me once. She doesn’t even look different, she’s just a great actress.
