An accident with an experimental quantum probability field causes everyone on the U.S.S. Enterprise to break uncontrollably into song, but the real danger is that the field is expanding and beginning to impact other ships — allies and enemies alike.

Underrated, loved it except thesinging Klingons.
Reminds me of an episode of GLEE.

As for the episode itself, I've been tired of "We wish we were in Glee!" episodes since Glee! was still on the air, and this one did nothing to change that opinion. A bog-standard offering for the subgenre: terrible songwriting, and a weird mix of cast members who seemed a bit too into it, and cast members who were clearly wishing they weren't in it at all.
I suppose they do get a little bit of credit for actually dreaming up the thinnest of in-universe excuses for everyone breaking out in song, instead of just having them all pretend not to notice they're doing it.
I have just caught up with this musical episode and agree that it is not great - not the normal standard - I generally give 8 or 9 for Star Trek SNW eps but honestly Star Trek -The Musical?? could the writers not come up with a different effect from the sub-space fold - seen as they were clever enough to enviage and create a sub space fold concept in the first place which in itself is a collosal idea. Gave this ep 4
Absolute rubbish. Thank god for fast forward. Followed the plot (weak as it was) without having to put up with all that awful noise they call singing.
musical episodes are garbage.
