Even though I can’t stand musicals and musical episodes, I’ll concede that it was a good episode that moved the season’s plot forward well. Even though I was squirming in my seat throught it.
I certainly loved it!
Didn’t love it but definitely in favor of them having taken a shot at it
I despise musicals so I just kinda went on my phone the whole episode while my wife enjoyed it.
I don’t watch much other tv than Star Trek, so I don’t really care if it’s a meme to do this on a tv show but I loved it. I usually hate musicals because the songs feel like they hit pause on the story but this episode was hilarious while also being meaningful.
I prefer Subspace Emissary
I loved it! And their explanation for why it happened was actually really good!
I normally don’t like musicals…
I just feel they should have done a better song with the Klingons
Completely fair
Yeah, distinct lack of Klingon opera!
They tried it but it wasn’t dishonourable.
Apparently, the alternate version will be a bonus on the DVD/BlueRay set.
Ooh, interesting.
The rug pull of using K(ling)-pop was funny as hell though.
That would not have been a grave dishonor. The K-Pop is probably ritual suicide territory.
“Status Report” is great, and the rest are good enough and the episode was really fun.
Glad they did it, but I’m not looking for an annual occurrence. I can love it and also say 1 is enough. Same with the Lower Decks crossover
I think both those things are too extreme. Maybe not every season, especially with short seasons now, but certainly they’ve earned more than one based on execution for both.
The crossover episode was great and the musical was superb, I thought. I don’t want that every episode, but I could handle once a season, but one every other is probably better.
Everytime I listen to “Status Report”, I start grinning like a cheshire cat.
Im with ya. I cried at some of the scenes. It’s beautiful. I hope they bring it to Broadway 😂
All of the negative reviews I’ve read were from people who never saw the episode.
I have seen this episode, and I really wasn’t a big fan of it. However, I’ve also seen the original series episode “The Way to Eden”, and I’d rather watch Subspace Rhapsody ten times back to back than sit through the “”““songs””“” in that episode ever again for as long as I shall live. Subspace Rhapsody may be more of a musical episode, but at least it’s music instead of being dissonant navel-gazing trash. The songs in The Way to Eden make me hate hippies more than J. Edgar Hoover and Eric Cartman combined could.
I love both Star Trek and musicals, and when “Subspace Rhapsody” was announced, I wasn’t thrilled and thought it would be bad Star Trek and a bad musical. I was so wrong! I loved it so much!
The best song is “How Would That Feel,” La’an is the best, and I will fight anyone who says I’m wrong!
A willingness to occasionally get goofy is honestly part of what makes Star Trek Star Trek imo. The lack of willingness to do that was actually something that kind of always bugged me about Disco. And this was definitely a fun as hell episode, especially the klingon boy band bit.
I was concerned when I learned the premise of the show. I get secondhand embarrassed when a show gets cringe. I fricking loved it.
If they would have done more diverse kinds of music it might have been okay for me. However, I hate musicals with a passion, all of them! Anyway, I´m happy for you because you enjoy it so much.
Same, I only watched like 12 percent of that episode.
After the first song I was like “but the next song will be a different genre, right? Right?”
