Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Catch-All (SPOILERS)

Original post

The 11th (jfc) Star Trek series rewinds the clock to one of Gene Roddenberry's earlier iterations of the original series, focusing on Captain Christopher Pike, Number One, Spock, and a cast of characters both new and old. Spinning off from the second season of Star Trek Discovery, it's set to premiere on May 5th on Paramount+.

Today, we got two character focused teasers, first on Cadet Uhura and the second on La'an Noonien-Singh. Yep, you read that last name correctly. Time will tell if this works out or if Trek's trying to turn Khan and family into the new Joker.

You know, I haven't seen it in awhile, but after Serene Squall I started thinking about it. In particular I was thinking, "are there any good parts in that movie?"

I'm still working on it. I'll get back to you.

I realized last night that even if Shatner could have used the rock creatures instead of more footage of "God" in the final action sequence, it still wouldn't have made a lick of sense.

Man, Jesse James Keitel really stole the show in ep 7! So good! I hope she's back as a recurring character.

Well, SNW has now had a Silly-Costume-Stuck-In-Fantasy-World episode. *checks box* Although I expected

Spoiler:

we wouldn't encounter grown-up Rukiya until a later episode. They went ahead and wrapped that part up immediately, but made it sound likely that she'd be back. I'm wondering if they try to make more friends and up creating one of the other omnipotent-naïve-space-dwelling entities they run into in TOS or TNG.

I'm guessing Christina Chong didn't have to do too much pretending in her scenes with the dog, since it is her IRL dog.

I loved this episode. Loved. I was worried near the end it was gonna get dark but I tried to have faith in the show, and that faith was paid off. Such a wonderful episode, and you could tell the cast were having a blast.

And despite the fact that this show isn't serialized in the Picard sense, there was this clear build-up to this episode starting from the second they introduced the medical transporter in episode 1.
