Star Trek Strange New Worlds Ep 6 "Lift Us Where Suffering Cannot Reach" REVIEW
Added 2022-06-09 12:00:05 +0000 UTCStar Trek Strange New Worlds dives into a classic morality tale... with interesting results in the episode "Lift Us Where Suffering Cannot Reach".
Comments
This is easily the weakest episode so far, and falls head first into the NuTrek trap: it makes play at a morality tale but is more concerned with trying to do a JJ-style puzzle box that the interesting bits either get lost or are never really explored. It isn't just that they lifted from le Guin, it is that they did it badly. Trekifying classic sci-fi isn't new, but this is an example of how not to do it.
