Spock:



Uhura:


La'an Noonien Singh:


Number One Una:



Bridge Crew Group + Doctor M'Benga:


Nurse Chapel:



All Cast, Grand Finale song:




they were basically inspired by Buffy The Vampire Slayer episode ''Once More, with feeling''

and also that it has never been done before in the Star Trek franchise, all are original songs, written by Kay Hanley & Tom Polce, composed by Nami Melumad, was recording it with a 55-piece orchestra (up from the 37-piece orchestra used for the first season). Melumad also introduced a choir for the season

People didn't mind so much when it was good.

The rule of thumb seems to be left-leaning and good=not woke, left-leaning and shite=woke.

my fave songs are Spock's (i mean such a strong 80's synth pop vibe there ) Uhura's (a song which does broadway theatre justice, up to the standards of the hits we see in Wicked or Frozen so anthemic)


Nurse Chapel's is also very nice, lovely gospel (almost sister act sort of vibes)


also well brought into this
Spoiler:

via a subspace distortion field, and Uhura transmitting something from great american songbook to it, which in turn sent a shockwave to the enterprise, as if the entity in that subspace was interested in their music

i've watched a lot of series recently and it includes star trek, where the concept is good, and it progresses nicely up until the point where they inject some unnecessary woke crap. It's nothing about left leaning politics. It's not just one series either, it's loads of them, and you think, did they actually just say that? It more often than not doesn't even fit in with the story

you can complain about that or you can just ignore that, learn to move on with the current times


consider me woke then, but i don't mind some diversity in terms of characters
