OMG, the Klingon ships became the backup dancers to the Enterprise! 😆
With K-pop boysband type of singing and dancing 😂
There are two easter eggs that you missed. They are not Trek easter eggs, though. They both some from the Buffy musical episode. The first is the staff meeting where Uhura says, "I've got a theory" which was one of the songs from Buffy where they theorize about why there is singing. Then there are the Spock and M'Benga references to bunnies in the meeting that mirror Anya's comments (and solo) about bunnies.
Indeed!!! Just Buffy Fans understand this
I for one, got that reference
Yes thank you! I came here looking for this.
I thought I was alone when I heard "I have a theory..." It immediately took me back to the Buffy episode.
Glad someone else ( and it seems multiple people) caught the bunny reference. I don’t think another show has done a musical episode as well as Buffy did it.
Oh, I didn't realize it was Bruce Horak playing the Klingon captain. Thanks for pointing that out!
That was the one thing I missed. :) Thanks!
I somehow recognized his voice. At first I thought it might be the Martok actor.
What I most liked was the explanation of why they were suddenly singing: pure Star Trek technobabble. In a franchise where space anomalies cause people to devolve evolution, grow masks, go emotionally unrestricted, flicker in and out reality or evil parallel universes, and where reaching top speed turns you into a salamander, a space rift that makes you expose your emotions through song is pretty standard.
The song and dancing in I, Mudd was way weirder.
The Klingon ship scene was hilarious. I did not know that was the same actor who played Hemmer last year.
When Spoke is signing “I’m the X”, the English Closed Caption first showed as “I’m the ex”. Then, after he sang about “solving for Y”, they corrected the other verses with “X”.
There is no correction. One verse was referring to him as an EX-boyfriend to Nurse Chapel. The other was an X in reference to variables in an equation solving for Y and he was the X.
Well......one correction. Spock 🖖
You really do the BEST Star Trek Easter egg summaries. Well done!
Thank you for letting me know! I really appreciate the support.
@@WhatDidIMiss You are so consistent in good content in these reviews that I now click like automatically before watching the video. I found your channel at the start of S2 of Picard.
@@billkeithchannel Thank you very much. I am very happy that you enjoy the videos :)
Bunnies??? Just Buffy Fans understand this reference 😂😂❤
What do they need such good eyesight for anyway!?
or maybe midgets....
A music easter egg: I believe at the start of the big final number when we see a number of red shirts in the hallway (around 50 mins into the episode or so), the camera does a 360 turn and the crew members all dance down the hallway towards camera. The choreography of that short sequence is a reference to Jerome Robbins work in the film version of West Side Story from the opening dance number.
Uhura legit had bangers in this episode, the 2nd to last song has brilliant lyrics and a really great message. I was mindblown that all the actors actually sang for this. Jess Bush, Anson Mount, Ethan Peck, they nailed it.
Yeah, that song will probably go into my head-playlist for “uplifting songs”. I used to go watch Once More With Feeling when I needed “comfort TV”, and I’d play that song in particular. I think the closing number here has just lodged itself alongside Walk Through The Fire in the same way!
@@DawnDavidson Agreed. That song had everything...a clever double-meaning chorus (solo/so low), a key change, insanely good vocals, and a hook I can't get out of my head.
I'm not even a big Star Trek fan, but SNW is just everything and then some right now. I've never trusted a show to just not miss like this since The Wire was actively airing.
I loved the way they changed up the intro or opening theme in this episode and was wonder if you or anyone else might know where I can get a copy of it
Oh, man!! I was crying with giddiness over the opening theme!!! I can't wait for all the a cappella groups on TH-cam to cover it! (By the time the end credits rolled, I was just so amazed at the whole thing and it was the icing in the cake!)
Finally! Two people like me who thought maybe it was a good idea to listen to the intro this time... It paid off!
Thanks for contextualizing Chapel’s actions by referring to the elevator conversation.
The Star Trek theme returns as its orchestral version at the end to confirm the anomaly has been destroyed. As opposed to the choir, more or less accapella version during the introduction. The second change to the introduction after last week’s cartoon/2D version.
In the lounge scene with Chapel one of the waiters was wearing the gravity boots from Star Trek: VI. The boots makes sense because when Una turned off the artificial gravity it probably did it ship wide even though we did not see that. So this crew member wanted to be prepared in case it happened again.
There have been two Easter eggs this season that refer back to “What Little Girls Are Made Of”. The in this episode referring to Dr Korby and in “Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow” when Kirk talks about his brother Sam
I enjoyed it all! Such a good time!!
Great breakdown. I never saw any Buffy episodes but this episode reminded me of the ABC Series Once Upon a Time's musical episode in season 6 episode "The Song in Your Heart." I have loved every episode of this series so far. All of them make me smile.
I’ve never seen Once Upon A Time. Nice to know they did a musical episode, too. I LOVED Buffy’s Once More With Feeling, and it got me hooked on the whole franchise. So maybe I should check out Once Upon A Time’s musical
Episode, too! :)
@@DawnDavidson YES - the whole series is on Disney+. Definitely had some up & down seasons/eps but overall a great show.
Did anyone else hear the comms when La'an and Kirk were leaving the Transporter room, "Ensign Von Neumann please report to deck 6 for reassignment to engineering." Likely paying homage to the famous physicist and his work on quantum physics (probabilities). Also, the patch cords in the Jefferies tube are clearly XLR audio cables. A homage to the audio focus of the show, or maybe TOS and using whatever they had handy for props? Or it is just what SNW had handy.
The best Star Trek of this era
It seems likely that Carol Marcus is the “little blonde lab technician” Gary Miller brags about setting Kirk up with in “Where No Man Has Gone Before.” Kirk: “I almost married her!”
There were three in the run of Shatner-Kirk that fit the bill:
Ruth in Shore Leave (though quite glamorous and no context except she was very important lover of young Kirk from likely Academy Days)
Dr Janet Wallace in The Deadly Years (context of a biological scientist)
Carol Marcus created for Wrath 1982 to somewhat match that reference..along with an estranged son. However Kirk in the pilot didn't mention a son in reference to the Academy romance from ten years before....pretty cold if that was the pretty little lab assistant. If that was the lab tech: More like that was a narrow escape, she got pregnant and refused to abort...dang it.
Gary Mitchell!
@@DMSProduktions we know what the OP meant.
@@DMSProduktions Star Trek of Gods and Men (fan made by SAG actors about 15 years ago) had a final portion of what the galaxy would have been like if Gary Mitchell had survived and continued to become more powerful.
It was an interesting take, and I liked the idea of the alternate path. Starfleet had not progressed technically but relied on Gary's psychokenetic powers to defeat enemies after he had conquered them 50 years ago....he's still flying around as an old man on the 2265 Enterprise as a space tyrant...like the Terran Empire.
@@STho205 Your point? He got the name wrong!
Klingons rapping? That would be cool. She got style, she got grace. She has ridges on her face.She a Klingon.😂❤❤.
Hopefully we will get another episode like this in later seasons. I think Lower Decks could pull it off as well
I could more easily see if happening on LD, in terms of story and “not screwing with the timeline” sorts of things. But HELL YEAH, I hope they do it again!
I hope we get a reprisal musical episode in season 4 or so and it lets the characters who didn't have the songs this time around have one. It'll be a good yard stick of if they've really moved forward with any plots.
This is just my head canon, but I like the idea that the subspace rift was not just responding to the music, but how Uhura was connecting to it. A consciousness was staying in sync with the music, and that happened to resonate with one particular reality.
FUNNIEST ep EVER made!
VERY enjoyable!
Some great performances by many of the cast!
Some very CHEESY numbers as well, but it was MEANT to be cheesy!
The funniest scene was the show singing & dancing Klingons!
NO1 could EVER imagine Klingons doing a song & dance routine!
HILARIOUS!
I liked how Spock's song, _I'm the Ex_ was basically a sad version of Nurse Chapel's _I'm Ready._
Thank you for the video, it is really appreciated each time you point out the Easter eggs.
Did all the cast members do their own singing?
Yes!
I think you missed the Douglas Adams references and of course Morn, with a beard.
Wait, what? Morn with a beard? When??
@@DawnDavidson I think that shot was supposed to be a Tellarite among the crew, but he definitely had a Morn vibe.
Heart of Gold! I kept waiting for a reference to a drink but entirely unlike Earl Grey Tea - Hot.. or there be whales falling through space, cap'n.
Any clue about the 344 number to close the rift? I hope it was picked for a reason!
There has to be something about it
Another Easter egg refers to Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy and the Improbability Drive that powered their Star Ships
Thanks so much for this! BTW, Celia is pronounced ’selleeya’.
I’m surprised Next Generation didn’t do a musical episode.
Yeah, why didn’t we get a musical episode instead of one about sexy salamander-aliens?!! 😂
At the end Uhura is humming at her station. This happened in at least one TOS episode. And I agree with another comment that this singing from the rift was caused by Uhura and her tendency to hum or sing at her station and why she was the one who was able to create a solution that had everyone singing to close the rift.
NBC Scrubs had a musical episode as well
Do you think the An part of La’An stands for Antonia ?
I would have to go back and rewatch the start of the episode. But, I swear I heard one of the Buffy Musical numbers played softly in the background just before everyone started singing.
Why was it 344 MEG they had to hit? That number was not chosen randomly.
Things don't exactly end up "happily ever after" for Christine and 'Dr. Korby'.... and definitely not for the better with Spock and T'Pring....... So sad.
But Boimler has a point. We NEED the Vulcan Spock for so many things. It is very sad though. And I wish we had gotten more happy Chapel-Spock moments. Dammit.
Here is a missed one. They got Lt. Comm. Chin-Riley wrong by showing on the computer screen Lt. Una.
Wish they would release that for the songs.
They stole the improbability field thing from Douglas Adams
Give Xena, Warrior Princess her flowers.
iirc, L'Ann & James got the watch from Pelia in Vermont.
good review, btw.
I don't agree that it's the first musical episode. In TOS there was one, the one with the Hippies. And Uhura sang.
If you mean that time when Uhura sang a song to accompany Spock's instrument playing in the mess hall, that's not a "musical". That's just a song. A musical has music that is usually not accounted for in-universe and singing happening in place of dialogue, but usually isn't acknowledged as "this person was singing just now". Except of course tor circumstances like this SNW episode where the characters already know that spontaneous singing to non-existent music sources isn't normal.
so,when does pike drive a car? almost everyone else but picard and janeway got to drive a car.
James Kirk still needs to command a single nacelle Predator class behind enemy lines against the Klingons before the Preservers sent that fake order for him to take over the Enterprise after Captain Pike's accident.
They should have done an episode of Glee without any songs. Or even better, just a blank screen for the duration of the episode.
A silent episode of Glee would have been great. But I’m
Wondering how to pull it off. Hmmm…. Maybe everyone got laryngitis right before Semi-Finals, and they all had to learn to sign all their songs? That would have been epic. :)
I really like super duper really wanted to hate this episode. I almost made it through off that girls first song about kirk and then when they talked about it dam. and then the klings at the end I freaking clapped.
5:41 Aenar
Unless there's a continuity problem, Carol's current pregnancy cannot result in David, but rather in a miscarriage,. In TWOK, Kirk asks Carol why she never told him about David, so obviously he did not know about the pregnancy that produced David.
Oversight on the writers' part seems more likely. Or she pulled a Beverly and ghosted him, and in this case also let him think the baby died. Or we're in an alternate timeline due to STD's shenanigans. I think oversight is most probable, though.
This timeline is different. There are several "changes".
I think that Kirk and Carol had gone their separate ways by the time the baby was born and she never contacted him again. I think in their time they wouldn;t have sat Ghosted, but probably Phase Shifted
hemmer is now an andorian engineer?
but he isn't even blue.
always thought, hemmer was aenar.
Both are technically correct. The Andorians are from Andoria making them Andorians, the Aenar are also from Andoria making them Andorians as well.
I'm not going to lie about this episode, it's one I'd like to forget. It was so crazy and cheesy I just washed it just to say I watched the 891 episode of Star Trek, that's about it. Probably won't ever watch it again.
Meanwhile, I've watched it 3 times. XD
In later years this will be seen as Fonzies Shark Jump for this Trek. Especially if this is well watched and drives the producers to do more and more....as what happened with Fonzie becoming a fantasy cartoon hero in every current pop fad.
Any series can do some inadvertently bad shows like Spocks Brain, Platos Stepchildren, Catspaw....
Usually it is seen as crud, a product of TV or network pressure and the producers rebound from it.
TNG and DS9 had some really silly episodes almost as bad as The Brady Bunch Variety Hour, but they rebounded back to form.
Some series do this as a 200th episode cast party however or homage to the franchise anniversary....HOWEVER:
SNW has only had 19 episodes and about 4-5 of them have been somewhat Disney Channel 90s sitcomish, be it Freaky Friday, Big, Pirates of the Caribbean, Risky Business/Adventures in Babysitting, Monty Python LARPing riffs.
It is family entertainment, so that means it will be aimed at specific family age groups here and there.
I'll watch next week's and call it a year. Probably not my cup of tea, but most of Paramount+ isn't.
How sad for you. I sincerely hope you are wrong. I for one feel SNW is a great show, right up there with DS9. They haven’t had as much time to spread their wings as DS9, and probably won’t ever get that time, due to the different way that TV works these days. But I think they’ve done a really excellent job overall, and I’m looking to see where they go next.
YMMV, though, of course!
@@DawnDavidson both seasons produced about a 60% above average ratio for a serious SF series. One that was very predictable overused in SF but OK filler. 2-3 episodes that were outright silly comedies or variety show gimmicks worthy of Disney Channel (Freaky Friday, The Fairy Tale drama club LARPing romp, the campy and ilogical pirate ep)
This is exactly what happened to TOS when Paramount (the Gilligans Island, Brady Bunch, Odd Couple, Happy Days pop TV studio) took over in 1968.
This season has the same ratio as S1. Those gimmick episodes in past series were often enjoyed by audiences as one offs at the time, but since they got big press....attempting to do them over and over in future seasons became painful circling of the drain of quality.
If history is a guide, this does not bode well. If it bombed like the Star Wars Holiday Special, then it would be forgotten and we'd look forward to Empire Strikes Back. If that had been temporarily sucessful, then we'd have gotten the Boba Fette adventure while Leia and Luke were off undercover recruiting on another planet...the story that horrible musical variety show tried to test out.
And hopefully the last musical episode.
This is the first time I’ve needed to actually see what I missed. When Una started singing was the moment I just couldn’t take anymore.
First Strange New Worlds episode I didn’t like. 😢 Nothing can beat the Buffy musical episode. People need to stop trying.
Buffy may be the OG but a good chunk of the cast were reaallllly bad at singing. Scrubs had the best musical episode. This one was decent with the Klingon boy-band moment making everything worth it.
@@curtisbmeThe Klingon Boy Band was so unexpected! Totally subverted my expectation of Klingon opera. 😂 And YT recently reminded me of “Klingon Style”, so it fit right in with that amazing parody song. 😂😂😂
Embarrassing. The great Trek Parody continues.
Exactly!!!
wow what a pos epi. to go from probably the best epi of star trek ever last week to something worse than STD ever gave us. what a waste of a epi they could have done so much better than that time instead of wasting it
Omg the singing made the whole episode a big joke
and not a funny one either
I think it was more for the actors/cast, yk throw in an episode a season where they can just have a little fun with filming kinda like the dungeons n dragons episode in the first season, filming a 10 ep show can get draining and given how cutthroat treck is with actor performance the director probably wanted to give them a break before the season finale
If you don‘t like musicals or this kind of silliness doesn‘t tickle your funny bone, an episode like this is certainly a complete waste.
However, me and my whole ST fan club were having a blast! To us this episode was a beautiful and thoroughly entertaining piece of Trek. ;-)
I do enjoy musicals alot and this version of ster trek is really funny the captain is really funny but the singing was just awful and the klingons singing made it so bad
@@mikecannon123456789 Well, that sucks for you then. Luckily there will be other episodes more to your liking ... I hope.😉
I haven’t watched the entire episode and I understand why the cast might enjoy this but it’s just an excuse to sing and dance a bit
I’m not sure we needed an entire episode devoted to this…. 🙄
Hard disagree after seeing the Klingons, that was worth the whole episode.
no that we did not need atall. big fn waste of a epi
@@Blodhelm watched it twice and although you are correct 👍 the Klingons were awesome 👏 however still brutal to watch
@@tc539 👍
well im guessing this is where the writers went on strike......always gotta be one douchebaggy episode per season, last season it was the elysium kingdom, this season its a musical.
Nah, how far was the Elysium Kingdom from the TOS Episode Shore Leave? Both worked in their respective series. This episode was fine. It was a fun episode, although Once More With Feeling from Buffy was the better of the two IMHO, I still like this one fully.
@@JDexter0319 douchebaggery abounds, sorry episode's I won't rewatch.
Aside from character development.. Star Trek is losing its way with these kinds of episodes. They need to get back to real Trek …
I totally disagree. While this episode was unique - being a broadway style musical - music was always a part of Star Trek. Look at the 2nd episode of TOS and you will find Uhora singing to Spock while he is playing his Vulcan guitar. Strange New Worlds is completely on mission with it’s time line and a fantastic show!
This episode was so bad I switched off
Too bad. You missed a lot of character development.
@@harveytherobot I doubt that
Well. I hate this episode. Star Trek by Gene Roddenberry is an universal concept. But this episode is too north american. Poor in musical proposal. Poor at all.
This was even worse than episode 8 from last season. I didnt finish that episode, and I turned this episode off after about 15 minutes. Such a letdown from the highpoint of last weeks episode.
the worst episode of any star trek series ever made. wtf where they thinking making a musical
A musical, how low can you go? Another reason not to watch. I just never could get interested in the new star trek. They lost me many years ago. However, I do like your channel. Thanks.
