I despise musical episodes and had to stop watching this one after I heard Spock's autotuned voice.

I think Strange New Worlds is the best Star Trek show made so far. Every season they seem to have 9 amazing episodes and one so cringe I end up fast forwarding through the whole thing. This musical one was the low point of the season and the series, just like that word fantasy ones they did in season 1.

Bleh.

We felt like this was painful and nearly unwatchable. Individual performance aside...please no more!

Nope, can’t do it. I was afraid of the LD crossover but I got through it. But this, I can’t watch it. I got through a couple minutes and had to turn it off.

Hmm, it looks like we're not allowed to dislike the musical episode here... Regardless, I'm with you.

With rare exceptions, I just can't stand musicals. The forced jauntiness, hollow emotion, and in this case autotuned singing. Ugh! Give me normal acting or give me death (today is a good day for it).
