Strange New Worlds brings modern Star Trek back from the brink

Published: Dec. 12, 2022, 5:43 p.m.

b'Streaming Wars host Colin Chisholm got a lot of recommendations from folks to try Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. He was apprehensive after the less-than-stellar Discovery and Picard.

But. He\\u2019s glad he finally did. Featuring an episodic format, campy comedy, engaging characters and just plain fun \\u2014 Strange New Worlds feels like a return to form for the series. Focusing on Captain Pike\\u2019s tenure as captain of the U.S.S. Enterprise, the crew has to use their wits to solve unique personal and galactic problems in each episode.

Strange New Worlds is available on Crave and Paramount+ (probably \\u2013 Colin still needs to check into that).
