Strange New Worlds ep.1
Strange New Worlds ep.3
Spoiler :
I scrolled past an article that purported to explain why the Klingons here resemble the Klingons of the '80s-'90s shows and not the Klingons from Discovery, but I didn't have time to read it. That's fine with me, though, even without any explanation. I didn't like the Klingons in Discovery.
Strange New Worlds ep.3
Spoiler :
I did read that episode 3 was originally meant to be the first episode of season 2, but production was affected by the lingering pandemic restrictions and they had to rearrange things. The episode was originally supposed to be filmed in New York City, but they had to move production at the proverbial last minute. So Kirk's line "I think we're in New York" when it's obviously Toronto was kind of an in-joke for the discombobulated cast & crew. It also means the newly-retconned Khan Noonian Singh was originally meant to be American, but now, because of the pandemic, the great supervillain is Canadian.
I don't know if they had to change anything other than the location, but I thought this worked well as the 3rd episode. I suppose it would have played a little differently as the season premier.
