Star Trek: Strange New Worlds S2 E9
This is a make or break moment for longtime Star Trek fans. Here is a sample of this episode's content:
Yes, the whole episode is like that and supposedly everyone did their own signing. Some of the actors are trained singers, others needed coaching. I liked it, but I have a soft spot for musical theater as a resident metrosexual. It's very silly but it was at least a lot of fun and something new in a pretty stuffy franchise. Strange New Worlds is the best Star Trek show on tv right now. Also, the Lower Decks crossover episode was solid. I have seen like half of those and they are okay, but the crossover was fun. | ||

The wife is a huge fan of this episode. I like that they stuck to the "classic" Roddenberry script and tossed in a musical episode.
Dr. M'Benga's line was great too. Re: the crossover episode - I was crying laughing at times. Talking as if no one can hear them? I almost passed out. -Mcoy | ||

Michael Burnham is an awful character. Just behind the bald Klingons in S1 [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
Someone on the internet somewhere photoshopped Discovery to "The Michael Burnham Show" and it couldn't be more accurate. Not that the supporting cast have characters that can really be developed much but there's no room for that anyway with making her/them(?) the focal point all the time. | ||

Appearently singing uses a different part of the brain than ur inner voice/talky voice.

Thirded on Michael Burnham being a terrible character. Sonequa is a good actress, that's undeniable, but the combination of this character plus her acting style I just find incredibly hard to watch. She is thrust into your face as the main character and essentially a superhero, but without any of the personal qualities that would justify it. A martyr complex pretending to be duty and selflessness.
I have watched all of Discovery though, because Star Trek is Star Trek. If you can put a little box around Michelle Burnham then the show isn't bad. Season 4 was quite decent. ST: SNW is out of the ballpark though. The S9 musical was amazing. I've rewatched it like 6 times now, I'm a sucker for musicals I guess. Apparently their bar was Buffy's Once More With Feeling... I went back and watched that again, and oh boy did SNW do a FAR better job. Those songs and the lip synching were absolute cheese. | ||

didn't like the Michael Burnham one, but i do want a grittier star trek like DS9 or Enterprise again. Discovery had too much of a michael bay action movie with bad writing thing going on and New Worlds seem like a direct response to The Orville with too many bad jokes slipped in.
bring this type of shit back.

I feel like everyone is gay on star trek now.
P.s. Garrick was gay. Butt in an absolutely incredible way.
