0n paper, this finale weaves together all sorts of ongoing through-lines... The trouble is, most of those arcs have been rooted in plot rather than character. And that’s left season three feeling kind of hollow.

4/5

And with that, another season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds comes to an end. And with it so does a long-running storyline.

Strange New Worlds ends Season 3 on an uneven note, much like the entire season has been.

3.5/5

The writers incorporate fun storytelling devices like the constant knocking on the door and the shooting star to indicate that while this is real for Pike, Batel knows they’re on borrowed time.

3.7/5

Season three of Strange New Worlds was definitely uneven. But, you know what? On the whole, I was happy with this finale.
