🎉 Woo! The geekiness begins!
Today for #OnlySky, I introduce a review series for #Trekkies and general lovers of moral philosophy. #StrangeNewWorlds is a terrific site for #Humanist discourse, so I'm going to be reviewing all upcoming episodes on a "happy human" scale, for how well each holds ideas in tension & develops complexity around the problems it presents.
(Not yo' usual reviews, I know! But hopefully a lot more thought-provoking & fun.)
Hope you'll engage! 😅 🌌 https://onlysky.media/mclark/star-trek-strange-new-worlds-a-return-to-humanist-form/
@lilyunsub Oh, fantastic! I'm so glad it's resonating with others, too. You can really tell how many of us have been hungry for a solid Trek for quite some time!
@lilyunsub Oh thanks for reading! You hit the nail on the head with respect to the last season of Discovery: even though it's better than the ones that came before, it's still haunted by all those difficult earlier seasons. Looking forward to your thoughts on other episodes! :)
@MLClark same here! ❤️
@MLClark Great review btw! Definitely have missed the humanist part of trek. Discovery only really ventured into it in the latest season and not quite as successfully as SNW because of how jarring it felt from the previous seasons. Especially the first. ❤️
