STRANGE NEW WORLDS SEASON 3
I have to admit that season three of Strange New Worlds has been a disappointment. I'd give the first episode, about the Gorn Hegenomy, a seven out of 10, good, not great. The Wedding Bell Blues, where Trelane tries to marry off Chapel to Spock, probably earned a grudging five.
The third episode so far, Shuttle to Kenfori, was a zombie movie; and I hate (and avoid) zombie movies. I was tempted to give it a zero, but I'll go with a two. There wasn't much for me to like.
The fourth episode, where they were on the holodeck, was a disaster. I found a few things to like about it, but I can't enjoy something that wouldn't exist until Star Trek: The Next Generation! The holodeck drew too much power in this episode, but it was too perfect for a technology that wouldn't be perfected for 100 years. And we'd seen this kind of story before. I gave this episode a four out of 10 earlier, and I'd downgrade it now to a three. I hated it, and I doubt I'll watch it again.
I REALLY hated most of Four-and-a-Half Vulcans. When they came down the hallway in Vulcan garb, they looked more like warriors than scientists. The most likable "Vurlcan" was La'An, who was more Romulan than Vulcan.
So far, I haven't watched a third-season episode twice so far.
I'm actually looking forward to an episode that I love.
I found it; episode seven of the third season of Strange New Worlds, What Is Starfleet? There were parts I didn't like, particularly some of the documentary-style questioning. Eventually, though, I loved it.
I knew before the end that the Jikaru would die, although I didn't think of it flying into the sun. I was emotional at its death, and, for me, it became the best episode of the season, easy. I'd give it an eight out of 10.
