Season 2
Episode 1 - 2
I was gonna stack up 3 episodes to watch for the 4th of July, but made it home this morning and decided to knock out these two.
Some changes was made to the opening credits scene.
Season picks up right after the end of season 2 with Number One in custody. We got a pretty good visual of Star Base One in orbit around Jupiter with the Enterprise docked to it.
Not gonna spoil it, but the season opener was overloaded with Easter Eggs from the original ST, Deep Space 9 and Discovery. They were all related to what we know from those series. All done pretty well.
Uhura is a now an Ensign.
We are introduced to Spock and his harp.
We learned more of M’Benga and Chapel relationship. And introduced to some type of “Super-Soldier” serum. This might be related to the upcoming “Section 31” series.
Episode 2 was all about Number One, Commander Una’s trial. Episode played out similarly to the classic “The Menagerie” from the original ST. We got a little backstory of her origin.
And it looks like Number One has some lesbian tendencies she is keeping to herself from what we saw with her childhood friend in episode 2.
One thing I have noticed with all these series since the 1990s, is how humans and Vulcan’s love breeding with each other. You don’t see other species mixing it up the way humans/Vulcans do.
HaHa!!!
Gonna let a few episodes stack up before catching up.
