I know its a dead horse but I still wish they'd done a USS Titan. So many cool aliens and unique locales. No massive wars or what not.

I liked the Starfleet Corps of Engineers stuff. Pattie the bug alien like the race from TAS, Soloman the Bynar, Captain Jewish Guy and his wife the Rabbi, the chick who spilled hot chocolate on Picard, some rando from the Gangster Planet
good shit
 

Could they have had him act just a LITTLE bit less cartoonish?

On the other hand, it is kind of funny to see the SNW crew making "who is this asshole" faces like the audience.

EDIT:

They literally have a portal to take them from live action to animation and back.
Help me. I'm having trouble hating this.

While maybe fair, that's still pretty autistic. I personally don't see why an art style is invalidated unless it comes from specific zip codes in the orient.

It's less about the zip codes and more about the presentation. As the 80ies and 90ies and 00ies "cartoons" with animesque features and co-productions gotten a pass as they ran on their own merits and said nothing on how anime they are. Instead of screaming into the void that they're anime when they technically don't fit the (western weeb) definition of what is anime.

Like how people call Boondocks, Ben 10, Avatar TLA and Totally Spies anime, when they really are not. They're animated from a Japanese studio, but three of the four are produced in America while Totally Spies is a Canada/France joint venture.

Pretty sure Boondocks is Korean. I know the director is.

I think it was mostly Koreans but they're Koreans who did a lot of work on, like, Naruto and some Madhouse joints?
But yeah a lot of "Japanese" animation has a lot of Korean and Vietnamese names for the animators.
 
That episode did have a decent amount of emotional progress. But the writing could've been better. The did the Klingons dirty though, they should've had death metal or thrash or something, not boy band pop.

Some of the songs were nice. Christine's song slapped but it sorta came off as a villan song.

Musicals are gay and only people like Movie Bob and Patrick (who are both probably gay) would enjoy them.

Edit - I watched the episode and skipped the musical bits except to see the Klingons.

The fact that the writers didn't use Klingon Opera shows they really don't give a fuck about the show's history.

How the fuck did they not do opera?

I would accept a musical episode in Lower Decks - that sounds just wacky enough to be fun for that kind of show.

Not SNW though. Did we learn nothing from the last Trek musical episode?

At least strange new worlds came up with an in-universe reason for the singing, though it really did feel like a lower decks thing, like you say. TOS just had a bunch of hippies start singing for no reason, because roddenberry got high and wanted a musical.

All that said, I think I'm going to skip this one. I can't stand musicals.
