      That’s me towards the musical episode of strange new worlds. I despise musicals, and now I’m not looking forward to watching this new season, just because of that episode

        It’s kinda self-aware, but I was a bit awe struck at the amount of work that must have gone into the episode. So many different songs with different genres of music - I can’t imagine the time involved in creating it much less performing it.

        Hey, give it a chance. I love musicals, and I went in dubious that it would be pulled off. When it was announced, I didn’t think that they were up to the task, and I have to say that I was very pleasantly surprised that SNW did it an did it well. It’s different, and it’s a risk, but you know…“risk is part of the game.” At worst, you don’t re-watch it.
