Strange New Worlds gimmick episodes! (piefed.social)

I’ll start by saying I loved the musical episode. Don’t think it would, but I was very wrong. Watching season 4 now, and I have to wonder, are they just making the show all gimmick episodes now? Each episode isn’t bad on its own, but I really wish they would get back to telling Star Trek stories.

Yeah, I agree. The musical was great in part because it stood out from the rest of the season. I do think there's some good Trek in the genre episodes and it's actually not too far off from the other series doing their holodeck/time travel/western etc. episodes but with half as many episodes I wish it was more consistent in tone.
