I feel like this, and the latest three, episodes have been kinda fillery. I’ve ended each by thinking, “Well, that was an episode.” It wasn’t bad but it didn’t push the envelope comedy-wise or plot-wise. It was some breezy fluff, good enough to pass the time to but I find myself looking for higher caliber laughs or deeper plot elements than this episode delivered.
Oh yes, AI image recognition absolutely gives me that tricorder vibe. I have a friend at my community garden with some apps like that and it is so much like an away mission when she quickly makes an ID and tells us what to do with that information.

Great I forgot this was out today. Looking forward to the new season. I’ve just been catching up on latest season of Strange New Worlds and literally just got to the cross over episode the other day so the timing is perfect.
I really loved how they highlighted the differences between the Ceritos and Enterprise crews in that crossover, might be weird seeing them back animated again though now.
It still annoys me that they don’t use April 5th, the actual canonical First Contact Day, which is the Federation’s biggest holiday as Star Trek Day. 😒
Can we please just have normal short treks back but take it seriously? Some of those were fairly good, and were part of the plan for Disco and Pic.
Hell, there’s even an important character from short treks that shows up in Disco, without any explained connection during the Disco episode. It’s literally just, “hey I’m here and I’m friends with ___ character”. If short treks was taken seriously, people might have actually watched it and been a useful tool in developing the smaller and intimate moments in New Trek.
It sucks that you have to go back to 1999 to get a TNG-era 4X game and there’s no TOS one as far as I know. You’d think with the success of SNW they would at least have an updated TOS era 4X game.
