Strange New Worlds – Terrarium Review

September 4, 2025Jean HeneganComment(1)

As someone who has been harping on my desire for an Ortegas standalone episode – one that addresses the lingering trauma from her encounter with the Gorn in the season premiere – you’d think I’d be over the moon about this episode. And yes, I did enjoy it for both what it was attempting to […]

Strange New Worlds – A Space Adventure Hour Review

July 31, 2025Jean HeneganComment(0)

Well that was a fun palette cleanser after a couple of rounds of heavier stuff. Although I suspect the burgeoning relationship between Spock and La’an will have some segments of the fanbase (namely, those who are full-on Spock-Chapel and/or La’an-Kirk shippers) up in arms. Personally, while I would rather have our main characters not dealing […]

Strange New Worlds – Shuttle to Kenfori Review

July 24, 2025Jean HeneganComment(0)

I didn’t love this episode. While it offered some key pieces of character development for three of our characters (despite still only being a guest star – or, perhaps a recurring character – Captain Batel is getting a heck of a lot of screen time), the episode felt a bit muddled at times in how […]

Strange New Worlds – Wedding Bell Blues Review

July 18, 2025Jean HeneganComment(0)

Everything can benefit from having Rhys Darby. And boy, did this outing from Strange New Worlds absolutely soar with his addition to the proceedings as Trelane, a trickster character from The Original Series that we now know – thanks to a delightful voice over appearance from John de Lancie – is officially a part of […]

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season Three Review

July 15, 2025July 15, 2025Jean HeneganComment(0)

After two years in stasis, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds is back for its third season. And, just to give you a taste of how long it’s been off the air, in that time the series has started filming its fourth season (several months ago, in fact) and been renewed for a fifth – and […]

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds – Hegemony Review

August 10, 2023Jean HeneganComment(0)

Now that is how you do a cliffhanger finale! Not since “Best of Both Worlds” have we gotten a finale that truly has real, complex stakes and characters we love in real danger. But, then again, what would you expect from the finest Star Trek series in decades? Once again, Strange New Worlds takes what […]

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds – Among the Lotus Eaters Review

July 6, 2023Jean HeneganComment(0)

What’s it going to take to get Ortegas her own standalone episode? Because every time she – and by extension, actress Melissa Navia – was on screen in “Among the Lotus Eaters,” the episode went from a messy slog to a fun, tight race against time to save the Enterprise from certain doom. But when […]
