STRANGE NEW WORLDS SEASON 2 REVIEW
The second season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds continues our five year mission with Captain Christopher Pike and the crew of the starship Enterprise in the 23rd century, a decade before Star Trek: The Original Series. This season offers some fantastic looks at some truly classic scenarios: A trial episode, a time travel episode, an away mission gone wrong, memory loss, Spock dealing with his humanity, and Klingon bastards. And two entries into the Trek library that may be All-Timers: a crossover with the animated Star Trek Lower Decks and a musical episode that has dethroned Buffy’s Once More With Feeling (go ahead and fight about that in the comments). Sarah Jane, Eliot, Dogget, and T.C. gather in the One Of Us Ten-Forward with their phasers set decidedly to stunning and ready to pile endless praise on this outstanding show. Oh! And the Squad also has a pitch for season three that involves a whole lot of kissing.

He’s been a stage performer, playwright, stand-up comic, film and television actor, radio DJ, podcaster published author, recorded musician, and comic writer/illustrator.

Sarah Jane (Highly Suspect Reviews, Screener Squad)
Sarah Jane was born and raised in Southern California but currently calls Austin, TX her home. She’s seen over 5,700 movies so far with zero plans on stopping. She has a penchant for all things exploitation, and she loves Godzilla with all her heart. Her favorite films are Deep Red, Le Samourai, and Miller’s Crossing. When she isn’t watching movies, she’s busy herding her four cats, her husband, and her 11-year-old kiddo. She’s been a contributor to TalkFilmSociety, Daily Grindhouse, FThisMovie!, Looper, and the Austin Chronicle. You can find her on Twitter and Letterboxd at @fookthis.
Eliot Nelson (Screener Squad, Staff Writer)
Soaked in the soggy rains of Seattle, Eliot developed a love of sci-fi, movies, cartoons, heavy metal, and all of geekdom. Pursuing his passion for the written word, he got his BA from The Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington. He has since worked exclusively in the foodservice industry, like any liberal arts major worth their salt. Eliot wiles away the hours listening to movie reviews, writing his epic sci-fi novel, and consuming as much media as possible. His favorite movies include The Lord of the Rings, City of God, Dawn of the Dead, and Groundhog Day. When not rambling to himself about the ineptness of entertainment executives, Eliot posts infrequently on Twitter and squawks regularly on his podcast The Debasement Tapes.
Danny Dogget (Screener Squad)
Hey persons, it’s your favorite canine Dogget! As many of you know, I don’t identify as a critic as much as a classy shock jock. That being said, I do my best to give all of you a well-balanced review filled with my true opinions and hopefully a few laughs. You can occasionally find me on other persons podcast like Mission Impodible (that’ll be 10 dollars Nathan). For the most part, you can find me doing reviews on Oneofus.net.
