[@jasonwalker9471]

I also just put it down to the fact that they're using a serum created by hyper advanced interdimensional aliens, and they're attempting to mod it even though they don't understand how and why it works. The effects of the original serum (and the initial "edit" the aliens did on him before the serum undid it) on Spock were nonsensical as well. He should still have been hyper logical, etc. Even moreso, because he was dealing with damped down human emotions, and no longer had to contend with strong Vulcan emotions. But instead he became "culturally" human. We can only assume that that was a deliberate effect conveyed by the aliens, both in their initial edit and in the serum. The hair thing though, there's just not explanation for that kind of thing. It's pure Hollywood.

Not counting Spock, Li'an and Chris Chapel looked the most Vulcan of the crew. The striding down of Capt. Pike and crew down the corridor (with his twirling the Lirpa) seems a possible nod to the scene of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 1 when Star Lord, Gamora, Rocket Raccoon, Groot and Drax came together as a real team. 🖖

[@tothra]

Like others, I was curious about the hair and the suddenly learned control of emotions, but I have faith. SNW has taken some very big swings at the fences in 2 seasons, and IMO, knocked them all out of the park. I'm approaching this episode with an open mind and an unexpected level of anticipation. SNW has proven they are the best Trek in years. And I, too, love Carol Kane. She grates on some, but I've loved her ever since I first saw her in "Scrooged". When they announced her addition, it was the only thing to help me get through my mourning for Hemmer

[@UKAbandonedMineExplores]

I've been watching Trek since the 80s and I think Strange New Worlds is amongst the very best of it and has taken on it's own identity. I just hope they don't push it too far down the comedy route and it can still deal with the complex matters Trek is known for tackling.

[@roderickmain9697]

It shows that the original premise of Star Trek was more or less the right one. Yes, TNG added some background story arcs which, to be fair, added some extra colour to the storytelling, but by and large, kept the episodes episodic. With TOS, you could show the episodes in, mostly, any order and it would work. Once you start connecting things that gets harder. to do. IMHO, once the background stories become the foreground story, its so much harder to keep the interest up between episodes. This looks good though. What am I hoping for? Telling good stories.

[@WrestlingWithGaming]

People are freaking out about them acting logical but we don't have the full context of what happened before this clip. Maybe there's a scene before this where they explain that they'll be logical and keep their emotions in check cause of x techno babble. Maybe Spock mind melded with them previously to help them ground themselves like Tuvok did to Suder, who ended up being logical for a limited amount of time after his meld. SNW has been pretty good about respecting canon so i don't think it's time to get the pitchforks out until we see the full episode. Now if there isn't an explanation then that is a huge miss.

[@jasonwalker9471]

Also, the creators of this serum did the same "implant culture using genetic changes" thing to Spock in the previous episode. How? Who knows, they're hyper advanced inter-dimensional non-corporeal aliens. Why did they edit Spock like that, and then give the crew of Enterprise a serum with the same wacky abilities? Dunno, but I assume they're hyper advanced idiots. In any case, this is an already established effect, so I'm not sure why people are acting surprised or more concerned now then they were when this happened to Spock. It's kinda dumb, sure, but no more than it was last year.

I love/ hate that writers device where if someone is in pain or distress of some sort, parts of speech begin to disappear. Prepositions get the worst of it, but adverbs are pretty much gone, too. So "This serum is painful" becomes "Serum painful!" "Cant control emotion!" "Knees broken!" " Cereal soggy!" etc. I blame Shatner.

Vulcan's never needed the Kohlinar, just get an injection from Nurse Chapel... the initial emotional outburst was amusing, but it takes years to suppress emotions as it's been stated, Vulcan's do have emotions and they are very strong. Treating Spock like garbage wasn't nice, especially from his so-called friends, you'd think their knowledge of Spock and newfound Vulcan logic would've stopped them from being such asshats.

[@chrismills1387]

I like strange new worlds better than most of the new trek. But how do they reconcile the events of this episode with the original TOS episode, the Enterprise incident where Kirk had to go through cosmetic surgery in order to pass as a romulan? Or the TNG episode, Unification where Picard and data how to get some kind of cosmetic surgery to also pass is romulans? Did they who's the technology of this serum injected into the Pike and the others? Why didn't nurse Chapel and lieutenant Uhura on Kirk's Enterprise remember being turned into Vulcans, while serving with Captain Pike? This is why I believe strange new worlds Star Trek is in a different universe/reality from the TOS Star Trek prime universe/reality. They've already confirmed the existence of a vast number of different universes/realities, not just the dark mirror universe. This is also how, I believe, they'll be able to have Pike escape his fate. It'll be explained that what he actually saw in that vision of him with radiation Burns and in a wheelchair, is but one possible fate in but one of many alternative realities.

Which basically means that that show won't be renewed past existing commitments. But also mention that there is wiggle room for characters in this time frame before characters have to re-integrate existing canon (aka TOS) so this is better news.
