    This is really what Strange New Worlds is most about: giving us precious knowledge about what our heros in the original Star Trek were all doing before we met them on the Enterprise in the TV sets in our living rooms in the 1960s

    I respectfully disagree. I don’t think the most important parts of this show are the things it depicts legacy characters doing, though your review mentions little else.

    Given your clear fondness for TOS, I’d be interested in reading you compare the two more!

      @ikesau Thanks for the comment. To read what I think of non-legacy characters in Strange New Worlds, try some of my reviews of other episodes of the series (for example, the time-travel episode in which Singh and Kirk are the main characters, and I discuss Singh as much as Kirk).

    Can’t read it as I haven’t seen the episode yet. But thanks!

    But I think I brought up lemmy formatting quirks with you before … just in case it’s helpful … if you could keep the first line (preferably followed by a blank line) of your post just for the title of your post and then put all the links or hashtags (eg #startrek is used on mastodon) after the top-title-line, it’d look cleaner over here on lemmy.
