240: Star Trek SNW "A Case of Chiaroscuro" Review - Is Trek Now Doctor Who? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Matt and Sean talk about how Strange New Worlds keeps borrowing other genres in Star Trek SNW Season 4, Episode 4, "A Case of Chiaroscuro." A musical, a horror hour, and now film noir shot in black and white. Matt calls it Andor filtered through Doctor Who, and he means that as a compliment and a complaint at once. Sean argues the story earns the style, from Una's con at the end to La'an's quiet unraveling in sickbay. Pike also climbs the captain rankings along the way. So is genre play the smar
239: Star Trek SNW, "Human Best Friend" - A Lower Decks Episode? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Matt and Sean ask whether Star Trek SNW Season 4, Episode 3, "Human Best Friend" works better as a live-action Lower Decks episode. The shore leave setup gives Strange New Worlds room for drunk-planet chaos, La’an taking over a gang, Spock mind-melding with a plant, and Scotty and Ortegas turning into a buddy comedy. But with only 10 episodes in the season, they also question whether this much goofiness helps or hurts the larger story. Order Sean’s next book, “In the Fields We Thirst” here: http
238: Star Trek SNW, “The Griffin Incident” (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Matt and Sean talk about the best horror Star Trek has ever filmed, in Star Trek SNW Season 4, Episode 2, "The Griffin Incident." A derelict Federation ship, a baby crying down a dark hallway, and a crew that stops trusting its own eyes. Matt reaches for Solaris and The Thing, Sean reaches for Event Horizon, and they agree the landing sticks. Also in the mailbag: the Voth, dinosaurs, and one very wrong answer involving Peter Griffin.

237: Star Trek SNW, “Valles Marineris” (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Matt and Sean talk about a fun dinosaur romp that collapses by the halfway point in Star Trek SNW Season 4, Episode 1, "Valles Marineris." The T. Rex encounter works, Pelia's Doctor Who joke works, and then the plot logic falls apart. Nobody on the best crew in Starfleet asks the obvious question about the mysterious fifth planet. So does the season four premiere earn its time travel setup? Or does it hand wave away the only choice that mattered? Chapters: 00:00: Intro 02:01: Feedback 04:47: Tod
