I boldly go where no reviewer has gone before and give my season two review for STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS second season. #SpoilerAlert ā Itās out of this world.
E1 THE BROKEN CIRCLE š¤©Ā
āSTAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS started its second season with an exciting, entertaining opener. The entire ensemble is back along with the hilarious, familiar face of Carol Kane as the interim Chief Engineer, Palia. Mayhem is surrounding the USS Enterprise.ā
E2 AD ASTRA PER ASPERA š¤©
āSTAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS gave viewers hope through Star Fleetās mantraā¦āTo the stars through hardship.ā It is what new cadets dream about as they enter the academy, especially if they are ādifferentā in any shape or form. A difficult truth to live up to, even for the Federation.ā
E3 TOMORROW AND TOMORROW AND TOMORROW š
āTOMORROW AND TOMORROW AND TOMORROW took fans back to the old STAR TREK days. Good times until the end. How in the world can anyone stuff the experiences and memories all away? Perhaps time really does need a āblack box.ā Oh well, time will tell.ā
E4 AMONG THE LOTUS EATERS š
āAMONG THE LOTUS EATERS, was not on the same level as previous ones. This is not the fault of the ensemble or the director. The writing was just too muddied and confusing. It was resolved too quickly. I needed more camaraderie fromĀ the crew. I loved the closing line. It made me smile for pilots everywhere. STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS just makes me realize what a āTrekkieā I really am.ā
E5 CHARADES š¤©
āCHARADEĀ gave its fans a hilarious treat of an episode. It showcased a different side to Christine and Spockās personal logs and āfascinatingā relationship.ā
E7 THOSE OLD SCIENTISTS š¤©Ā
āTHOSEĀ OLD SCIENTISTS were hilarious, fun, and campy. It took audiences into the future and backĀ with the animated spin-off, LOWER DECK, and the Enterprise crew. Totally entertaining.ā
E8 UNDER THE CLOAK OF WAR š
āAt times, this episode was a bit vague, confusing, and in the end, hugely surprising. When reminiscing, the pace was lightning-fast. There were so many āincoming transports.ā I could not keep up. It felt a little like the old MASH series on speed. It was a nightmare trying to explain āwhat it was like back there.ā Being around a Klingon makes it very difficult to maintain a āStar Fleet face even when ordered to do so.ā
E9 SUBSPACE RHAPSODY š¤©
āSUBSPACE RHAPSODY gave fans one of the best all-time episodes ever. It was funny, poignant, dramatic, and a musical in space.ā
E10 HEGEMONY š¤©
āSTAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS planted a true enemy behind a line that kept the thrills coming non-stop. There canāt be a winner in this scenario since both sides have lost too much already. I canāt wait for this series to return. I stand with the Enterprise crewā¦āHope Ā is a choice.āĀ Ā Ā
The entire second season is available on Paramount+.
