TV Strange New Worlds season 4

4.6 - This was good! NOT because it was dramatic rather than "fun", but because it was well written, had great character work, and didn't feel completely weightless by the end.

Got to be the best Chapel-centric episode ever, though there haven't been many of them. I guess M'Benga "leaving" is to explain how Boyce ends up as CMO, then M'Benga comes back part-time for his TOS episodes (it almost a shame he was in TOS at all, because I might have bought that he'd die otherwise.) The M'Benga/Chapel relationship is one of the strongest the show has had.

Nice to see some more crewmembers and actually get the feeling that the ship has hundreds of people on it. Up to this point this season it's felt like the ship is run by like ten people.

The thing where the gravity got too strong was good, don't remember them doing that before.

The "och do you nae understand my accent!" bit was funny, SEE I LIKE FUNNY STUFF TOO.

I found the countdown clock appearing on screen a bit distracting but whatever.

What's with so many finger-loss scenes this season? Is it foreshadowing a villain made out of discarded fingers in the finale?
 
Goddamn, that might have just been the best episode of Star Trek ever, and I'm not kidding. Wow.
 
A very exciting and intense episode!
