I like it best of the latest litter of Trek spin offs - action, thinking, and a bit less overt sanctimony than some of the others. I also enojyed Picard quite a bit. SNW will be fun until it get's too bogged down some big overarching plot (Gorn) and stops being a cool "scifi adventure of the week" series. I like how you get the backstories on Spock, Kirk, Ohura, etc... as well. The crossover with Star Trek Lower Decks titled "Those Old Scientists" was great. The episode title abbreviated is "TOS" which is the same as "The Original Series", which is basically the time that this series takes place in. Seeing the Quaid and Newsome characters in non-animated format was fun, as was seeing the SNW cast animated.
