Trek Watch Zombies Deliver, But What’s With the Puppet, Pike

On this episode of Trek Watch, we’re diving into the highs and lows of the current Star Trek landscape. First, we tip our hats to Strange New Worlds for delivering a surprisingly fun and freaky zombie episode—proving once again that Trek can still get weird in the best ways.But it’s not all warp core breezes: we’re scratching our heads at that baffling Season 4 teaser, where Captain Pike is… a puppet? Yep, that happened. And we’re not thrilled. Add to that a Starfleet Academy trailer that feels more CW teen drama than classic Trek, and we’ve got some honest frustrations to beam up. It’s a mix of praise and protest this week as we talk tone, direction, and what the franchise needs to stay boldly on course.
