Spoilers Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 3x04 - "A Space Adventure Hour"

[Pauln6]

I'm not surprised. This entire exercise starting from the shoehorning of Michael Burnham into Spock's family and then this whole Noonien-Singh thing has pretty much been about fan service. Except if they really knew what real fan service is about, they'd write a better show than trying to come up with idiotic character connections to TOS etc. At this point, as I've said before, I just want an intelligent, enjoyable episode, not even the whole show. Just give us a well-written episode. Nothing much else is expected.

That said, Christina Ching absolutely rocks.

Let’s hire people who don’t like Star Trek to make Star Trek for people who don’t like Star Trek.
"For as someone who doesn’t like Star Trek it’s all shit but they gobble it up anyway and we can appeal to new markets" was the operative logic.
A decade of NuTrek but the only thing most memorable was the ENT-D flying out of spacedock again.

Grim.

So we're the bloopers actual bloopers, or were they staged to be presented as bloopers? I felt like they were planned, written and acted to appear as bloopers. So to me they were clever but not funny .

Certainly, they were scripted faux bloopers, similar to the bloopers at the end of the "Toy Story" movies. And they were hilarious and predictable and even more hilarious.

Initial reaction was an 8 - which i voted on, but i'm thinking more like a 7 or a 6 now after digesting it.

I liked the attempted "Riker maneuver" at the end
Why does Spock need to be everyone's love interest?!

Because he's Spock.

Also, please keep La'an away from McCoy. First Kirk, now Spock, she's shagging her way through the original TOS cast and it does her character such a huge disservice.

That’s a little much — she’s not “shagging her way” through anybody; she’s had romantic sparks develop that she didn’t originally expect or plan, with exactly two people.
