Torben E @Tales_from_Elsewhere 6d Season 2 is not only like a blast from the past, it's simply a blast. A brilliantly executed joyride. I didn't have that much fun with Star Trek since my last complete rewatch of STNG. Season 2 is the perfect blend of Scifi, mystery, romance and fun. As before it is still episodic but there's an underlying common thread and lots of character development. They even manage to mix serious topics with lots of fun. The episode when Spock is about to marry and becomes fully human, caused by an accident, is magnificent. And then there's "Subspace Rhapsody", the franchise's first musical episode. Normally I skip such episodes because I find them too silly or awkward. But this time was completely different. Not only did I watch the whole thing...I loved it. And had a good laugh more than once. I don't understand why some Trekkies don't like this series. It's Star Trek through and through. Yes, it's not STNG...but it's a great homage to the original 1960s series.

I love Star Trek but this was worse than Star Trek 5. Yes. That bad. See more Carlos M @CaduMartins Feb 22 The second season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds successfully maintains the "adventure of the week" spirit that made its debut so refreshing. It excels when it focuses on the core chemistry of the Enterprise crew, delivering high-stakes sci-fi and genuine character growth. However, the musical episode felt out of place and broke the immersion that the series usually builds so well. Additionally, there were moments where the writing felt a bit heavy-handed with its social messaging, that occasionally overshadowed the narrative. Despite those distractions, the season remains a high-quality entry in the franchise. See more Michael P. @MichaelPerm Feb 20 Loved it. Every other episode seems to be a little quirky See more Alex S @RT45656533 Feb 5 While better than discovery by a long ways, the writing and scenes in SNW are long, ponderous, overly emotional, and border on soap opera nonsense. This show is a far cry from being inspiring and showing a hopeful and optimistic future like previous Star Trek installments. Nor does it deliver on previous Star Trek's winning recipes of offering interesting science fiction plots, with displays of competence and camaraderie. On occasion, there is an episode that doesn't let itself get mired down in sappy, dogwater social conflict that has been painfully constructed for the episode.. and that is where it shines. It is sad that these episodes are so few and far between. In the great scheme of Star Trek, this season of SNW rates.. above discovery, though well below TOS, TNG, DS9, VOY, and even ENT.

Thoughtful, thrilling, and beautifully crafted - it proves SNW isn’t just good Trek, it’s exceptional television. 🖖​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ See more Read all reviews
