  It’s the first Trek show that I have no desire to rewatch. Especially the s3 finale had me ready to just jump ship.

  And it’s not the fault of the cast or directors, people on set running around to make things go brrr. It’s the decision from above that SNW’s sole purpose is apparently to set up a) TOS (and messing up what we thought we knew about, say, the Gorn in the process), and b) another show with Kirk, Spock and the gang which will also setup TOS.

  We get it, Akiva Goldman & co have a big, collective fetish for TOS, but could we please let SNW be its own thing…?

  They filmed a version of the scene with Klingon opera instead, but it wasn’t nearly as fun in my opinion. Plus, the Klingons were supposed to have felt that the singing was dishonorable, and they been shown to sing Klingon songs on duty.

      I’m not sure if that was the original intent of the writers, but that’s how I think of it anyway!
