Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

Enjoy this episode a lot! La'an was great as the "Evil Vulcan". I got some good chuckles out of that. The hair on Pike was great. The scene after the end titles was great! 4/5 for this one.

Star Trek SNW writers: "AI, we can't come up with a new story line, what can you give us?"
AI: "How about a mix of mainly "The Galileo Seven", plus the movie "Enemy Mine", and then throw in a bit of "Arena" at the end, and don't forget to make it all predictable in just about all aspects."
Star Trek SNW writers: "Perfect!"

LOL!

Physics (and the canonical fundamentals of transporters) is completely out the window.

Y'know, I really liked this episode up until the twist in the last act and then they went and shot it in both feet! Why in the name of everything Trek are the writers/showrunner of SNW hell-bent on borrowing from everything and redoing TOS in what is, supposedly, a prequel to TOS? I'll give this a 3/5 because it was entertaining until the twist hit. Then they drove it into a ditch...
