All Things Star Trek

I am about to finish Picard season 3 and I just feel like Gordon Ramsay memefied phrase: "Finally some freaking good food!"
It's not perfect but after wasting my time watching sob trek season 2, season 3 feels perfect.
My wife noticed the Amazon logo before the other soapy seasons and CBS before this one, and I ask myself if that warrants the change in the direction, from watery soup to a thick delicious gravy.
I agree I was missing the carpets on the D too, that humongous bridge that felt more like stage then the helm of a starship. And what plays I watched going on that stage!
I now place season 1 above 2 and consider them both irrelevant to the wonder of 3, sure there would be some little plotholes without viewing them first but I would say they are not worth your time.

In season three, when we reconnect with the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise, still under the command of Captain Pike, they face the conclusion of season two’s harrowing encounter with the Gorn. But new life and civilizations await, including a villain that will test our characters’ grit and resolve. An exciting twist on classic Star Trek, season three takes characters both new and beloved to new heights, and dives into thrilling adventures of faith, duty, romance, comedy and mystery, with varying genres never before seen on any other Star Trek.Season 3 will premiere with two episodes on Thursday, July 17, exclusively on Paramount+ in the U.S. The series will also stream on Paramount+ in international markets where the service is available. Following the premiere, new episodes will drop weekly on Thursdays, with the season finale on Thursday, September 11.

So I accidentally watched all episodes of Start Trek Strange New Worlds - it started out as redo of the original series - standalone episodes, storylines very close to the original, where they encounter some strange phenomenon that is resolved in an hour or so,

but then 2 episodes stood out - The One where they are all cartoon characters and The One where they are all start singing, and the whole thing turns into a musical.

I kind of liked it, although it obviously breaks the supsension of disbelief. How do the experts here feel about that one ?

The cartoon one was a crossover with Lower Decks, in the grand tradition of DS9's Trials & Tribble-ations. I thought that the musical one was a little bit silly, but very much in the same vein as the musical episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and it's certainly not a bad episode.

What do you mean you accidentally watched every episode? Did you not intend to for some reason?

 

[Snowygerry]

Well I certainly did not intend to watch them all, I got drawn in so to say, a local commercial network ran them 3 at a time on Monday evenings, and it just so happened I had some time to spend,

reading the post above mine I only watched season 2 (?) apparently...
