Probably going to skip this episode because I really don’t like musicals

Just to be clear its just because I don’t like musicals, I’m not bashing the episode

I don't like musicals either, and I enjoyed it. Adding an exception to "I've seen all of the $tv_series" is kind of lame. Maybe you won't like it, but it only takes an hour to find out. I've spent way worse hours in my life than watching a tv show I generally like with a dud episode.

As a person who also doesn’t care much for musicals, I too enjoyed the episode mainly because it shows how some of the characters are coping with their relationships and how they tie to what we know of their future. Especially La’an’s part.

It does move the plot forward in many relationships though, worth watching for that reason alone.
I also mostly cringe at the musical parts, but overall I don't regret watching it.

I don’t like musicals either. But I was impressed that the reason everyone was singing was thoroughly encountered, explained and responded to in a classic star trek science fiction way. It was completely at home with how phenomena are explored in TNG and classic series. They didn’t shoehorn it in just to try and make a musical for no reason, and didn’t drop developing the characters and story while doing it either.

I had a lot of fun, and laughed harder than watching any lower decks episodes.
