Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

[Drunk Monk]

SNW can still be playful. Pike, Uhura, Chapel & La’an are converted to Vulcans. It’s self satirical but also revealing as Spock relives childhood trauma about being bullied for being half human. La’an, who is descended from Khan, goes Romulan but it was TOS when Romulans first appear but Pike & La’an have time travelled and know but that’s officially redacted. Pelia talks about her LSD use (she was a roadie for the Grateful Dead) and Scotty & Kirk bond over scotch, which is endearing. A fun ep, not to be taken too seriously.
