Caught up on #StarTrekStrangeNewWorlds. The last 3 episodes were pretty good so that makes me feel better. The show is CLEARLY stronger when Anson Mount is in it. I hope Pike features in all the remaining episodes of S2. Could have done without the constant ear ringing SFX in E5 however. That was a bummer.
@gedeonm I really enjoy Paul Wesley’s take on Kirk; his kindness and his curiosity. He has that classic swagger, but I found his gentleness to be actually touching in moments.
And of course that final scene was a small gift.
@JtsW Yep, I agree. He’s grown on me a great deal. Love his observation when Spock and Chapel were playing chess since we know from TOS that Spock could never beat Kirk at the game. Also the nod to Charlie X in the form of the chess pieces was 💯
@dbergey It’s really bad. My wife can’t watch shows that use this SFX because it totally activates her tinnitus. I wish creators would find another way to convey this effect on characters.
@dbergey Man that’s a GREAT idea. Maybe @pschiller will agree. I could bet Apple could develop a way to filter out these frequencies from TV broadcasts to protect audience ears.
