Agreed! Let's stick to exploring strange new worlds and seeking out new civilizations. And maybe throw some fights into the mix too. It's time we stop trying to appeal to the "younger crowd" by turning everything into a musical. There's no shame in being nerdy and loving science fiction. We can have fun while still staying true to the franchise's core values. I think that's why so many people love Star Trek in the first place. Furthermore, if the producers are looking for ways to make their show more relevant, they should focus on telling deeper, more meaningful stories instead of resorting to gimmicks. That's what makes a good TV show great - compelling narratives that resonate with viewers on an emotional level. I hope they take our feedback seriously and return to making quality content that honors the legacy of Star Trek. For now, let's all agree to never speak of this musical episode ever again lest we forget what made us fall in love with this incredible series in the first place. Let's end this thread on a high note, shall we? ๐Ÿ˜Š Here's to hoping the next season of Star Trek is one we can all be proud of!
