The problem with “Nu-Trek” is that they don’t periodically have some of the weirdest episodes of television I’ve ever seen. There needs to be an episode every season or so that just leaves you baffled as to how it ever made it on screen.

Have you seen the fantasy storybook episode of Strange New Worlds?

I enjoyed that one! It was the kind of silly nonsense I love about ST. Definitely less cringe than some of the bad old-Trek episodes.

It's the curse of modern TV where everything has to be a slave to the arc. But also modern Trek where the first 85% of the series is them twiddling their thumbs over a season long mystery that they'll then resolve in a rush in the last three episodes.
