Star Trek : Strange New Worlds

Yes more crazy ****. Good!
The less of the serious (w/e that alien enemy is/was) the better. It was starting to take itself a bit too seriously towards the end of the season 2 and not in a good way.

That was Eps9 so the one after was the final eps. I wasn't a big fan of it either tbh as I recall.

Reading the comments on here put me off even watching it so just stopped totally with the series. I thought it was rubbish anyway and having watched that trailer it’s more of the same.
 
I like the idea of the story, the way they pull it off is pitiful. Maybe it appeals to kids which I guess the show should target but to me it's really over the top.

I enjoyed that clip. Silly trek can be fun.

As long as it stays the right side of the silly-stupid line. That was the downfall of Lower Decks for the longest time for me, that they aimed for 'whacky hijinks in a Trek setting' but kept hitting 'dumb as a particularly unintelligent brick'. Then the writers got their **** together, and now it's probably my favourite of the nuTrek productions (the excellence of Anson Mount's Pike notwithstanding).
 
I dont mind a bit of silliness in Star Trek, the original series was rife with it after all, and as an added bonus Anson Mount is always worth watching even if he was simply stood there tending to a bonsai tree :)

I still don't know if it was a Mount ad-lib or if it was actually scripted, but his pirate impression at the end of "The Serene Squall" was hilarious :D
 
So I've just finished watching this. Enjoyed it overall, but one thing I don't like (and I think it is how most of Star Trek has been presented in the past) was that there was no plot running through each season. As much as I hated the last 2 seasons of Discovery, I prefer that format where there is an overarching storyline running through.

I prefer the traditional Trek style of individual stories. That way you can dive in and watch just one or two in any order.
