Only 10 episodes :(

 

Like the other seasons.  Nothing new.  I expect the show to end with 5 seasons.

Wtf did I just watch

I’m guessing they run across a planet that has holographic technology and had a little fun.

I don’t know what’s up with them using “landlines” to communicate inside the Enterprise.

 

i wonder when they’ll introduce McCoy, Chekov and Sulu.

i'm sure you've put more thought into that sentence than the writers of have of any season of strange new worlds 😛

The right: “It’s woke indoctrination turning kids into Liberal Democrat cross-dressers.”
The left: “It’s bold, inclusive, and everything sci-fi should be.”
The centre: “Please. Just no more singing episodes.”

Trek has always been bold and inclusive so yeah.  SNW is just a bit more in your face about it at times. 

All I care about is well written stories and quality acting.  Anything else is utterly irrelevant.

something nutrek is missing in abundance 

SNW isn't what I'd call a great Trek show, but it's better than Disco and most of Picard... My ratings go:

1. DS9

2. TOS

3. TNG

4. Enterprise

5. Star Trek Continues (Unofficial series!)

5.5 TAS

6. Voyager

7. Picard Season 3

8. SNW

9. Picard Season 1 & 2

10-98 Anything else they come up with

99. Discovery

Why is Voyager so low on the list? I thought it was an excellent series. I've rewatched all the way through a few times. I definitely rate it higher than Enterprise, which failed from the get-go as a series that was supposed to show Star Fleet getting started, instead I felt it wasted two seasons on the awful Xindi/time travel plot, which is tiresome and such a lazy way to do Trek (yay, let's do Time Travel  because then we can just make it up as we go along). For me the 4th season is where Enterprise got it right.

Also fully agree with Discovery ranking.

Because I can't stand it.  It and Discovery are the only 2 Trek shows EVER that I've never felt any desire to rewatch.  By rights it should be lower, but it did have SOME good episodes and ideas.  The Doctor was by far the best character of the show.

There were bits of Picard season three that i liked but overall i would never watch it again, where as i others (1 to 5) i've watched many times.

I watched bits of that section 31 film out of morbid curiosity. I turned it off after the "Irish" robot in a Vulcan body appeared.

It won't be for a fair while, but I *can* at least see a point where I'll rewatch season 3.

I'm not even slightly tempted to see this movie...

It always bugged me in voyager that the two parter , year of hell wasn't a full season. And then I found out later that the writers wanted it to be a full season but rick Berman wouldn't let them. Such a waste. There's a lot of that in voyager where they should have taken some more risks.

I agree with what you said about enterprise, another wasted opportunity. The first season should have been about them just getting off the ground, instead it had klingons in the first episode.

The time travel was nonsense too, specially since all we knew of Scott bakula was quantum leap and time travel

A few things I am wondering about for S3:

A.  What's Pike doo gonna look like this time around....yea I've watched the trailers & it looks poofed up, but still....

B. When will the unintelligible, physco-babbling Pelia go away (or at least learn how to speak English properly, without that crappy, slurred accent that sounds like she's on crack, Mary Jane, & LSD at the same time) ?  Hopefully Scotty's arrival will mean her departure is near....

C.  When do we get to see more of the stunningly gorgeous No. 1, preferably in regular/civilian clothes that show off her physical attributes better ?

D. Is Spock EVER gonna get laid properly, human style ?  I feel certain that Christine could make any Vulcan-human horizontal bomp a thing to remember for a LONG time :D

E.  Can we PLEEEEEEZE get rid of the hatchet-head/buzz cut hair styles on Ortega & anyone else that has it.... 

But otherwise, as Pike says:  HIT IT !

    • This Samsung T7 external SSD deal lasts less than a day by Sayan Sen Recently we had covered some nice deals of internal NVMe SSDs which include the 4TB TeamGroup G50 for only $400, the WD_BLACK SN7100 2TB for just $243, as well as the Samsung 990 PRO 1TB for $370. If however you require an external SSD for portability and quick data transfers and have a budget of less than $200 the Samsung T7 1TB model is currently on a limited time deal at just $190, it's lowest price in nearly three months. The deal ends today so you better hurry if you need one (purchase link below). The T7 weighs in at just 72 grams meaning it should be fairly easy to carry around helping in the portability department. Via its USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface the T7 promises sequential read speeds of up to 1050 MB/s and writes of 1000 MB/s. It is also fairly robust with a drop protection of up to 2 meters, though bear in mind that this is not waterproof. For that you will have to choose the rugged T7 Shield. The technical specifications of the Samsung T7 1TB are given in the table below: Specification Value Model Code (1TB) MU-PC1T0T / MU-PC1T0H Interface USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) Dimensions (W × H × D) 85 × 57 × 8 mm Weight 72 g Sequential Read Speed Up to 1,050 MB/s Sequential Write Speed Up to 1,000 MB/s Drop Resistance Up to 2 m (6.6 ft) Encryption AES 256-bit hardware encryption Operating Temperature 0°C to 60°C Non-Operating Temperature -40°C to 85°C Humidity 5% to 95% (non-condensing) Shock Resistance 1,500 G, duration 0.5 ms, 3-axis (non-operating) Vibration Resistance 20–2,000 Hz, 20 G (non-operating) Get it at the link below: Samsung T7 Portable SSD, 1TB External Solid State Drive, MU-PC1T0T/AM, Gray: $189.98 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • I just wish they would put more love into Virtual Desktops. There is just so much more they could do.
    • Sounds like you just skimmed over the review, I answer all those questions in it. Although I admit I did not test if DTS works over the headphones, when I get some time I will test this. My personal use case is more speaker-driven (I cover this in the review too).
    • It actually does the same exact thing as yours, 7.1 virtual surround over headphones. From the product page: "Experience sound that surrounds you with 7.1 virtual surround, delivering a wider, more immersive soundstage for movies, games, and music." So both of them are two channel, with 7.1 virtual surround that only work in Headphones mode.
