Warning: Spoilers for Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season 3Star Trek: Strange new worlds Season 3 is completed as the most divisor season of the Paramount + lighthouse + Star Trek series. Seasons 1 and 2 were critical dear and drew dominant attention, but among a vocal segment of Star Trek fans, Strange new worlds Season 3 went where she did not go before.
The Rotten Tomatoes score for Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 3 highlights part of the negativity. Although noted fresh, with a robust 88% among criticisms (compared to the percentage of previous seasons in the 90s), Star Trek: Strange new worlds Season 3 has raised a rotten audience score of 55%.
Star Trek: Strange new worlds Season 3 certainly had high points, such as Captain James T. Kirk (Paul Wesley) concentrated episode 6, “The Sehlat Who ate his tail” and the penultimate episode of season 3, “Terrarium”, which finally allowed Lieutenant Erica Ortegas (Melissa Navia) Commander the Solo Spotlight.
Among a group of Star Trek online fans, points of sale, podcastors and youtubers covering Star TrekHowever, the reception for Star Trek: Strange new worlds Season 3 was strongly cold over the season. Often, dissent had the impression of having drowned fans who loved season 3.
To be sure, Star Trek: Strange new worlds Season 3 has legions of fans (including me) who appreciate and soaked in its daring exploration of different genres. Negativity towards Star Trek: Strange new worlds Season 3, however, tends to focus on the following problems.
The expectation of 2 years for Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 3
By no fault of producers, crew and distribution of Star Trek: Strange new worldsSeason 3 has been delayed by two years. This is the result of the 7-month production of the saga and SAG-AFTRA rejecting the production of season 3 of 7 months, and the decision of Paramount + to retain season 3 of season 3 until June 2025.
In the meantime two years between Star Trek: Strange new worlds Seasons 2 and 3, Star Trek Fans are more and more alarmed as paramount + canceled Star Trek: Prodigy, Star Trek: Discovery, And Star Trek: Lower discs, While the film is for broadcasting Star Trek: Section 31 Run as a disappointment.
The pressure on SNew Worlds Trange Season 3 to be everything for everyone Star Trek Fans and the consumer public were immense. For Star Trek Fans who were disappointed, the general feeling of season 3 seems to be, “We waited two years for this?”
10 is not enough episodes of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds
A common complaint with Star Trek In the streaming era, 10 episodes are not enough, especially given the months and, often, a expectation of several years between the seasons for new episodes.
Star Trek: Strange new worlds’10 episodes The number is mandated by Paramount + – and the next Star Trek: Strange new worlds Season 5 will only be 6 episodes – but for a long time Star Trek Fans continue to spare the “elders” when a season of Star Trek was from 10 to 26 hours.
The much longer benefit of seasons of Star Trekespecially for an episodic program like Strange new worlds, is that it is easier to forgive an episode that you don’t like and move on because there are a lot of hours to hope.
An episode (or more) of Star Trek: Strange new worlds Fans react negatively to feel even more flagrant because there is much less real estate. Eventually, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ 46 total episode for its five seasons will only be a notch of more than two seasons of two seasons Star Trek: Enterprise.
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season 3 went on board with the comedy
Star Trek: Strange new worlds obtained praise for its comic episodes like “Spock Amok” of season 1 and the classic crossroads of all time of season 2 with Jonathan Frakes with Star Trek: Lower discs“These old scientists.”
While the appreciation of the comedy is subjective, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Humorous outings seemed to miss the brand with a lot Star Trek fans. Jonathan Frakes was even shocked to learn that the mystery of the Holodeck murder of season 3 he directed, “an hour of space adventure”, was a divisor and not loved.
Three Star Trek: Strange new worlds The episodes of season 3 count as comedies: “Wedding Bell Blues”, “A Space Adventure Hour” and “Four and a half Vulcans”. In a season of 10 episodes, part of Star Trek Fans seem to think that 3 comedies are too numerous, especially if they do not find them funny as planned.
Too much dance in Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season 3
Star Trek: Strange new worlds Season 3 presented a lot of dance, which forged and deepened a new romance between Lieutenant Spock (Ethan Peck) and Lieutenant La’an Noonien-Singh (Christina Chong).
Spock and La’an not only danced together, but their intimate sharing of their body language was a focal point of three Star Trek: Strange new worlds Episodes, “Wedding Bell Blues”, “A Space Adventure Hour” and “Four and a half Vulcans”.
While the chemistry between Spock and La’an, and Ethan Peck and Christina Chong, is palpable and electric, part of Star Trek Fans have simply found all their excessive and indulgent dance, perhaps not appreciating how crucial it was for the development of the love story of Spock and La’an.
Other Star Trek The fans smoked this spock and La’an while a couple came out of nowhere and replaced the hot attraction between La’an and Lieutenant-commander James T. Kirk that Strange new worlds Built in season 2.
The episodes of Strange New Worlds Season 3 were not “Star Trek enough”
Long -term Star Trek Fans want something specific to their favorite science fiction franchise: the combination of a moral dilemma, a problem that requires the science and ingenuity of our Starfleet heroes to solve, and a new extraterrestrial or convincing planet of the week.
Star Trek: Strange new worlds Originally to deliver the proven formula of Star Trek: the original seriesBut season 3 has completely moved to explore different genres, and not necessarily find new planets and civilizations. (New strange worlds were still present, but often not the focal point.)
A recurring complaint of Star threek fans it’s Strange new worlds The episodes of season 3 felt “light” and “at the surface level”, lacking in -depth exams of complex problems and morality. Strange new worlds Season 3 seemed more interested in being “entertainment” than being “Star Trek.
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season 3 was uneven and not as good as seasons 1 and 2
What is “good” and “bad” is subjective according to the spectator’s eye, but there is a general feeling among Star Trek fans Star Trek: Strange new worlds Season 3 was uneven, and the episodes were simply not as good as the previous seasons.
An explanation can come from the conditions Star Trek: Strange new worlds Season 3 was carried out: after his 7-month period, season 3 was production manager while Key behind the scenes left the show after the 2023 strikes. This may be why the scripts of season 3 may not be as polite as they could have been.
Star Trek: Strange new worlds With several arches of in progress characters, mainly in the form of its many “love stories in space”, but season 3 has no connective theme, and its non-stop hug of the genre feels accordingly.
Many fans believe that the USS Enterprise crew should suffer from an emotional boost of how many bizarre for them during Star Trek: Strange new worlds“Short delay in the universe of a few months.
“Vulcans of four and a half”
It is difficult to think of a more divisive episode of recent Star Trek, And certainly not a Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, that “Four and a half Vulcans” of season 3, which struck a virulely negative agreement among a vocal segment of Star Trek fans.
Complaints range from the way in which Captain Christopher Pike (Anson Mount) and his crew are written like Vulcans, a misunderstanding of Vulcans overall, with a eccentric tone and the comedy of “Four Vulcans and a half” flat “.
There are also deeper problems raised by some fans that “four and a half years of Vulcans” insult the neurodiver, to the accusations that Vulcan Ensign Nyota Uhura (Celia Rose Gooding) was “ canvas ” Beto Ortegas (Mynor Luken), for flat charges that are racist.
Star Trek: Strange new worlds Prepare to make an extremely entertaining comedy with “Vulcans four and a half”, but maybe they have pushed too far in a number of Star Trek Fans were not willing to follow. With hindsight, it seems that the same could be said to Star Trek Strange New Worlds Season 3 in total.
Hopefully, Star Trek: Strange new worlds Season 4, that the executive producers and co-showrunners Akiva Goldsman and Henry Alonso Myers welcomed as their strongest season, will be more warmly received and will restore what Luster was lost in season 3.
