I found SNW to be a fresh breath of air after the garbage that Disco was. Sure, some filler episodes were weird, but at least I got a chuckle out of the Klingons rapping.
“Utopia” a group of comic book fans discover that their favorite read is a secret message from an escapee from a sinister organization.
“The Prisoner” The grandfather of all paranoid fantasy shows. An unnamed civil servant resigns and is kidnapped. He’s taken to The Village, where he’s told he is Number 6…
snw was too robotic, seems like the actors were being forced to say those lines every scene. they had good premise but the execution was poor, as the other 2 series. picard was equally cringey as std, again they had so MUCH history they can use for the show, but it ended falling flat, and they were using source material from fan novels. (the friendly borg, the rogue changelings,etx) all came from various novels.
prodigy and lower decks were much better shows than the 3 though. too bad t hey got cancelled too fast.
That’s my impression from DIS, but isn’t SNW supposed to be decent?
SNW is decent. S2 E2 is an especially strong episode.
Nope.
I tried a few episodes because someone said they’d done a great space battle. The battle was 8/10, but every thing else was just dumb.

The problem with the K (for Klingon, of course) Pop scene is that the song didn’t last long enough.
Shit, you’re right! I had more of a Hiphop vibe in my memory. I love how the Klingon is so annoyed that he can’t prevent the singing. Peak comedy.
Here are two shows worth watching.

Thank you for the recommendations!
In case anyone wants to watch those, too, they’re “Utopia (2013)” and “The Prisoner (1967)”. There are quite a few series and movies with those names.
also make sure to watch the UK version of Utopia, not the very very bad US remake
silly me
