The problem with this show lies not within its stories. The little adventures themselves are thought out well and connect to the bigger plot in some way somehow. The unforgivable problem with this show is the appalling characters with their ridiculous haircuts, the dumb and dumber dialogues they are having, poor decision making of said characters, and finally, the "modern" special effects boring the hell out of anyone who has seen two or more popular sci-fi movies. Complete with useless CGI zoom…

This series took until near the end of season one to get ahold of me.... Once it did (get ahold of me) I was hooked! The characters are well put together (even Spock) and the stores get better and better with each new one. The only exception to this, was S02E09, which is one of the infamous 'singing' themes. Yes, you heard me. So many TV shows have done a singing episode... and they rarely work (for me). With the exception of the Buffy The Vampire Slayer episode titled; One More Time With Fee…

The only thing strange about this series is the notion its radically different from Picard and Discovery. As far as I'm aware it utilises essentially the same team, who created the other "new Trek" shows. In my opinion, its writing is mediocre, full of plot holes and predictably woke. Sure, the political correctness has been toned down but it's still there, in all its fussy, lecturing, needy, simpering glory. I tried one episode and that was more than enough for me to walk away. To my mi…

This series is a great relief from the altogether forgettable drama arcs in the most recent of the 2020s Star Trek series. Star Trek: Strange New Worlds throws back to the episodic 'Lesson of the Day' format familiar to and loved by the fans of TOS, TNG, and VOY. The episodes are written in the same style with somewhat standard plot lines that make the series feel fresh with takes on modern morality and a broad range of character archetypes. Watching the series feels like a welcomed step bac…

***** Some folks should not write reviews. Their negativity so obviously reveals their desperate need to sound cultured and knowledgeable; straining to sound relevant as if they have an opinion that matters because of their vast experience as a filmmaker. All the while taking a break from playing video games in their mom's basement to try to find problems with a program they streamed. Each of the Star Trek series had their own personalities, their own charms and attractions, and their own …

Strange Indeed. Really, this series, as far as I'm concerned, has nothing remotely in common with the original Star Trek. Instead, even season 2 which I dipped into recently, hasn't improved. I suspect, this is, once again, really only going to appeal to a very narrow demographic of wet and whiny, pretentious wokester's. Whats really unfortunate too, is armed with decent writing, sensible characterisations that evoke the vibe of the 60's series, this could have actually worked. What a sha…

Best Trek Ever! Strange New Worlds uses the episodic format of the original series, which allows the writers to experiment without locking a whole season into a single story. While it doesn't shy away from darker themes the show manages to keep a positive tone overall - something that has been lacking in many of the other recent Star Trek series. The negative reviews are rather funny with their complaints about "wokeness" and going on to say how Strange New Words is not like the original …

I am a big sci-fi fan. And Star Trek is one the many that I love to watch. Season 2 just gave me the bitter aftertaste of it. A courtroom drama? Really? The whole episode? What's next, a musical? Oh wait, there is an episode further down with it. Season 2 is disappointing. STRANGE NEW WORLDS for me talks about discovering new planets and beings from that world. NOT a courtroom drama. I kind of seeing what's in store for Season 3, Days of Our Lives. Sorry, I have to stop watching it. I DON'T RECO…
