ST:SNW S03 - Official Trailer
- Thread starter Kamen Rider Blade
- Start date
Well unfortunately some if the reviews fir the first 5 episodes are not looking as good as season two. Still a lot of under development in characters and some stories not so great. Lots of comedy. This series while good could have really been better I think.
It’s the opinions of, like, 20 people. I’ve seen at least two Star Trek fans call “The Fight” an underrated episode of Voyager. There’s a storm of perceptions for everything. Whether the critical reviews are uniformly exuberant, uniformly disastrous, or anything in-between, someone, somewhere, is going to say the fourth episode of season three renewed their soul, and someone else is going to say it nearly killed them.
I like reading reviews. And I may end up agreeing with one of these to a tee. Who knows. But I don’t know if we should be doing retrospective thoughts on something we’ve not yet seen!

This resonates with me as someone who considers Picard season 2 a near-flawless ride.
I look forward to your Trek series.
Hahah, see! Truly, everything in this franchise has its fans, and everything, its detractors.
To be honest, I already felt in season 2 the novelty had worn a bit off. They hid that by going truly bonkers with a cartoon-crossover & a musical episode.
It makes sense that they're having some issues finding their sweet spot now. We had 8 years of continuous Star Trek, and they're in their 3rd season. Finding new good ideas is hard.
I fully expect SNW to go into the "usual" Trek rythm, where like 70% of episodes are nothing special, but you're still happy to see your guys again, one or two stinkers, and a handful of absolutely fantastic pieces of science fiction or drama.
And SNW is still the best thing to come out of Trek since decades. I'll gladly take some mediocrity just to have some more of it.
I really loved the fact that They hyped up Ortega being 'the pilot' with her song in "Subspace Rhapsody".
It gave the fact that that is what the character is mainly about, a good spin.
It took something that in all the other Trek shows was something of a detraction and gave it a weird gravitas.

The early reviews of season 3 say she doesn't get much more character development. In the first 5 eps anyway. They keep adding legacy characters and it's taking the spotlight off the new ones.
Legacy is the best.
One could assume that the first couple involving the Gorn will give her plenty of screen time from the bridge.
I love all the little interactions between her and Pike.
The character of Ortega needs to be fleshed out before the series ends. She'll end up as another Mayweather. This is season 3 now and we haven't gotten a episode focused on her yet. It's long past time to do that.
The TrekCulture video says Melissa Navia has a lot to do with in the first 5 episodes.
Now if that means her character will be fleshed out more, who knows. It was a spoiler-free discussion.
Needs, eh? Is ending up like Mayweather that this is an absolute requirement?
I would be curious to see more of her but that can also come at the expense of making sense, like what happened with Tom Paris.
Tom Paris ended up fine.
After some ridiculous stories and making him a medic because of one class in biochemistry, or a commando leader despite Chakotay or Tuvok being more qualified.
I have heard criticisms that Paris was given more focus because he was the "white male lead" of the show. I don't know if that's true or not, but it would fit in with some established patterns.
I think he was given more focus because Robert Duncan McNeill played the character very well.
According to this Paris got a good start and then settled into the middle of the pack:
Which is way better than Mayweather managed. I wouldn't be shocked if Detmer had more lines than Mayweather.
