New Life and New Civilizations

s03e01: Great
s03e02: Trash
s03e03: Meh
s03e04: Bad
s03e05: Okay
s03e06: Great
s03e07: Okay
s03e08: Good
s03e09: Good
s03e10: Okay

First of all…Pelia was a Doctor Who companion!

Those are my opinions of the s3 episodes. Meh first part but good second part.

It felt like a mellow-ish finale of SNW Part 1, with the end/beginning of Batel. But, this episode should have been a two-parter if you ask me. Sometimes it felt rushed.

SNW Part 2 will start with s4 until Pike's foretold future at the end of s5.

What was that planet in the end?

This was like a sequel to s03e05, didn't like the villain but it worked in the episode. I liked the side-lifetime situation.

I have a theory that s03 was made extra spoofy because s4 and s5 will be more serious and maybe darker. So, the writers went all out in this season. 

I still like the show even if this is the worst season until now, hopefully s4 and 5 will be better… but this wasn't bad compared to some other shows. 

Problems I have: too many characters (they should kill maybe 1 or 2 next season,…maybe Ortega because she isn't in TOS and that new doctor guy should vanish), almost no Strange New Worlds…the final gave us one…happy!, almost no aliens in special make-up…also, the final gave us that…happy! But, I want more.

I'm ready for SNW the 2nd and Final Part!

 For example, from within the very pages of Trek itself: 
"The Inner Light" (Season 5, Episode 25 STNG) original airdate 01st June, 1992.
Picard lives a full life in moments when the Enterprise encounters an alien probe: and the flute he kept on show commemorates that life where he also learned to play it.

 

So star trek reused something they've already done before. Writers are really struggling in terms of originality and ingenuity this season.

Probably an unpopular opinion but man this show just needs to end. The 1st season started with so much promise and every season  it has gone downhill. They just love stomping all over the original series and in this season frankly there were only 3 maybe 4 episodes that were actually watchable. Just because you throw legacy characters together doesn't mean it's an interesting show. 

A 5 episode to top off a 4 season.

On a side note, admittedly I'm not the biggest fan of OG trek but they had their day. Do we really need to keep adding characters from there?

Wow. Bittersweet. 

I like how he got a lifetime with her. Yet, with those you love, a lifetime...

Is never quite enough.

nice Season Finale ;o
