People who tell you to touch grass have clearly never seen TNG. Wesley touched grass. It almost killed him!

I actually still need to start SNW. It looks good from what clips I’ve seen.
I’m glad, and not surprised, that this trope is still going strong though!
I have some minor quibbles with it, but compared to Picard and STD, it’s really spectacular that it even exists.
High praise that I’m not even bothered by the Kirk or Spock recasts. Even if their version of Kirk looks nothing like Shatner, I like the cut of his jib.
I was a little worried about how I’d feel about the recasts.
Without saying too much, I think their personalities are true to their TOS selves, unlike the caricatures the recasts were in the Abrams movies.
Nurse Chapel is the only classic character that’s been completely reimagined. She’s more more active, and motivated. She’s still got a thing for Spock, but she isn’t just some hopeless wilting flower. This does clash with TOS, but I accept it as overriding TOS Chapel.
Dr. M’Benga, who is a very obscure reoccurring TOS character is the ship’s doctor, and as is Trek tradition, has a lot of screen time.
Chapel and M’Benga have a pretty deep (non romantic) connection.
That’s interesting… So no Bones yet?
I wasn’t ever clear on the timeline for when they all met.
Well Bones didn’t appear in the pilot or first episode of TOS, so I dont think well get more than a cameo if he shows up at all.
I mean, we all love the classics, but none of the series were perfect. SNW is excellent trek for me.

Without knowing much else about the show, the casting for Pike is definitely the draw for me. He looks perfect for the role!
He has a very old-fashioned charming look, like Shatner in his heyday, or the original Pike.

Anson Mount is a whole slab of man I’m glad we’ve tossed on the Trek grill.
I can’t get enough of this description. Haha

I sent this description to my wife, and she just asked when we were picking up paramount+ again.

Episode 7 I believe
You are missing out, dude. SNW is the new Trek we’ve been waiting for. I think it’s just as good as Lower Decks
I’m getting there! I can’t help that I keep rewatching TOS and TNG… lol
This is what I’ll say: I L O V E SNW, it’s truly amazing. I quite like a certain scene in the first episode involving sticks (if/when you get to it you’ll know what I mean) and the 3rd, 7th, and 9th episodes of S2 are really good IMHO. For S1 I wasn’t keeping track of my favorite episodes as much but I remember thoroughly enjoying episode 8. All the episodes are great though, you really should check it out!
They have a musical episode that I don’t hate!
I love the episode but I’ll take not hating it!
It’s a good episode.
Ok, I’ll have to!
I even liked the musical episode
The one exception being Risa. Jamaharon for days.
The artificial weather is making the Federation soft. We have to shut it down.

Imagine all the actual paradise planets we never got to see because nothing interesting happened.
