STRANGE NEW WORLDS (SEASON 3): Is Star Trek Now An Inside Joke?

from Nerd Legion · host Last Free Nation

In this episode of Nerd Legion, we grapple with the first four episodes of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 3. After a long two-year hiatus, the show has returned, but has it lived up to expectations? We discuss the highs and lows, such as the Gorn plotline wrapping up, thematic episodes like the musical and the holodeck murder mystery, and question whether the show is being overly self-referential. We also touch upon our hopes for Star Fleet: Academy and address concerns for the future of the show.
