I don’t like musicals… at all. But I really enjoyed this episode, and found it quite fun. The whole cast is so good. I hope this series goes on for many years.

I am just the opposite. I love musicals and I love Star Trek, but this one was my least favorite of the season. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate them trying something innovative for the Trek series. I enjoyed seeing the actors working outside the box. But overall it didn’t give me the joy that the other episodes have.

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).
