That, at least, could happen if Vulcan hair naturally grows differently than human hair (which, after all, has different natural ways of growing in different ethnic groups already). It's the automatically logical behavior that's the problem.

It's only a clip here, so there is little context to the details of the mission (an energy system repair?). I wonder why Pike is carrying a lirpa (ancient Vulcan ceremonial weapon). We see La'an carrying a phaser rifle, so the potential for some threat must exist. I look forward to seeing if there is a plausible reason Pike is carrying the equivalent of a "spear" instead of more advanced 23rd-century technology, or if the writers just think it looks "cool" and "Vulcany." Given the lack of seriousness of what has been offered so far, I'll wager it's the latter.
I take your point but I think the point of this series is to mix whimsy with lore. To me, it’s a success even though it ploughs old ground. Honestly, things have been so bad in this franchise (disgusting word) that I am gratified to have a reason to smile. And the Pike character genuinely makes me laugh.
Love it! However, Lots of question here can be answered with the following statement: If you haven't noticed yet "Strange new Worlds" is loose with canon.
That last look on Spock's face says, "Well, SH!T!" That said, there are a couple of things that defy "logic" in this clip and which prove that the current writers *_DO NOT_* understand long established Star Trek canon. It's an established *_FACT_* that Vulcans do have emotions... STRONG emotions which they train for *_YEARS_* to control. Suddenly, an injection allows non-Vulcans to acquire this control almost *_IMMEDIATELY????_* Not only that, but the injection not only changes their physical appearance, is also *_RE-STYLES_* their hair. You know, I can suspend disbelief only so much. This goes beyond absurd. I miss the days when the science of Star Trek was partially based on *_ACTUAL_* science or presented Science Fiction in a plausible manner. Current Star Trek producers and writers seem to have forgotten that or they are just too young to have been alive when The Original Series aired.
They've played fast and loose with science in all Star Trek series - beings with unexplained 'powers', weird viruses that cause the crew to do X, absurd alien redesigns. This isn't much different to be honest.
@@ZGryphon You see, that's the problem with kids like you. You just hate it when someone has a different opinion than you. Besides, I wasn't talking to you anyway. I was talking to people you actually understand what *_REAL STAR TREK_* is supposed to be.

@@AnnoyingCritic-is7rpAgree. It would have been just logical for them to make the correction once. For them to do it multiple times descends into cheesy skit for laughs.
Also not a main character, so I wouldn't expect to see her either? I mean, I hope she survives.... So still emotionally invested. But I mean, obviously they were going to survive the cliffhanger... Lol just like obviously Picard wasn't going to stay assimilated (too much is made of those contract negotiations nowadays, I don't remember it coming up at the time)
I get that this show is more lighthearted but their personalities wouldn't drastically change like that. If I remember correctly Vulcans aren't logical by default. It is a way of life they adopted because their natural unchecked state was tearing their world apart.
They did go thru a few seconds of having heightened emotions. Its only logical that they pulled themselves together and quickly adopted the current Vulcan way of life.
THIS. It takes years of training and daily meditation to overcome their highly emotional and aggressive nature. The joke is funny, but it makes zero sense. Also the fact that the serum magically alters their hairstyles.
My presumption is that they haven't scored the episode yet and that music was put in as a placeholder. That being said, I wouldn't be opposed to them using something as on the nose as that if they played their cards right. 😊
i'm hearing 2025...I want to know what's going to happen to the crew and civies that got beamed up by the Gorn (most likely Pike's friend dies, as she was bit)
-But have no problem with a serum that turns humans into another species? -That makes them somehow become logical without years of disciplined Vulcan upbringing? -That somehow makes them smarter and more efficient? -Makes them seemingly forget what being human was like? 💁 🤦
Perhaps, the emotions part will be explored given that they have not changed back and no longer have the mission to distract...I mean ground them is complete.
FFS! Vulcans being logical and suppressing emotion isn't biological or genetic, it's learned by them through teachings, meditation and practice and takes a lot of hard work.
Lifelong Star Trek lover. This makes no sense. Vulcans spend their lives dedicated to suppressing their emotions and harnessing logic. They aren't just "Vulcan abilities." Vulcans actually feel emotion much more strongly than a human, which is why they spend their lives suppressing them. I'm extremely disappointed. It is a bit funny but pretty annoying that they ignore the very nature of being Vulcan. If they just addressed it slightly and gave them something to counter the emotions it could have been fine. It's also a bit annoying that it happened almost immediately whereas similar transformations usually took time and weren't exactly easy to do in what should be the future from these events.
The (young) writers are the problem I assume . I quit watching this show after the crew needed their Captain to validate their work performance with group hugs and crying. Which I imagine mirrored the writers justifiable insecurities about their own job performance. If only Spock , McCoy and Kirk did a group hug and cried at the end of every episode and gave each other positive affirmations of their work performance, that would be awesome
"Sometimes you have to just embrace the absurd." - Jean Luc Picard They're having fun with it. No need to overanalyze it. Like the Lower Decks crossover, or the musical episode, it's all about a little feel good humor.
@@BakerStudiosIndy no way man, it's about inconsistency ruining the Brand, the Characters, their own product. It's like cheat codes in videos games that renders everything useless and pointless, ruins the enjoyment of the game. It's like buying a McDonald's and then changing the menu to taco bell. It's like surviving after being stabbed by a Lightsaber, it makes the past 50 years of story building and canon pointless (a half century of fictional world building is a big investment) , and so waste of mental space, it's offensive to the consumer, and counter productive when they (the writers) are expected to protect and honor the story line/canon. The Star Trek writers #1 priority should be expected and assumed not to destroy their own fiction by turning it into a silly Monty Python sketch, that defeats the whole reason they were hired in the first place.
Television syndication required large numbers of episodes to sell to various broadcasters. This is streaming and has no quantities or slot requirements.
to be fair, the quality of STNG over 24 episoes is nowehere near SNW - in fact, I doubt I could pick ten epsiodes each season of STNG that would be better than each season of SNW, although again, to be fair, I'm not the hugest STNG fan.
It's a cultural thing. Even while Spock was young, people reminded him he was half-human everywhere he looked. One of the reasons he "ran away to Starfleet" instead of going to the Vulcan Academy of Science. Looks who's toting equipment on the ride back to the ship. I'll tell you! This is a side lesson on racism. But, oh did I LOVE the march down the hallways! I was jumping up and screaming inside--I can't wait for season 3!
> It's a cultural thing. Awesome how an injection gave four people who'd been working side-by-side with Spock such a massive cultural change. By awesome, I mean "the creators of this show do not deserve existence".
When the Original Series aired, it actually inspired a generation of young viewers to become scientists, engineers, doctors, and astronauts. Viewing this clip, I think the writers and producers are encouraging impressionable audiences to pursue the art and science of professional clowning.

Thanks for the reminder of how much I've been missing this show.
Looks like Kid and Play is back in the house. Being turned into a Vulcan doesn't mean that they are smarter and emotionless. Those are learned traits.
When they told Spock he was only half Vulcan - you know he wanted to say "Up Yours." (From his human half, of course.)

i'm hearing 2025...I want to know what's going to happen to the crew and civies that got beamed up by the Gorn (most likely Pike's friend dies, as she was bit)
Spock's worst nightmere lol
Pike has gone full Wayne Static with his hair and I am 100% here for it.
Human or Vulcan Capt. Pike's hair still EPIC!!!
The injection redoes hairstyles on all of them. Why, out of all the crazy stuff that happens in Star Trek, am I having trouble reconciling that?
-But have no problem with a serum that turns humans into another species?
-That makes them somehow become logical without years of disciplined Vulcan upbringing?
-That somehow makes them smarter and more efficient?
-Makes them seemingly forget what being human was like?
💁
🤦
Why, indeed? Is it not...irrational? It seems many SNW-haters in the comments share this obsession, though.
So you're worried about their hairstyle changing, and not their entire body structure and species?
@@mastere6115 Exactly. What's wrong with me? 😋
I can't wait to watch this. I wish they do 24 episodes instead of this new 10 episode seasons.
But logic is a trained skill, not inherent to vulcans. They should be going nuts with intense emotions.
Perhaps, the emotions part will be explored given that they have not changed back and no longer have the mission to distract...I mean ground them is complete.
In theory would behave like Romulians
They kinda did while on the ground in sick bay
The final look on Spock's face was priceless, I can't wait to see this movie
JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER AND BETTER
Can’t wait for the new season
FFS! Vulcans being logical and suppressing emotion isn't biological or genetic, it's learned by them through teachings, meditation and practice and takes a lot of hard work.
What is the track that starts at 2:19? I feel like I should know it...
I would love an answer to
@3:04 Spocks like " We seriously gone do this"?
Una looks good in the Captains chair ❤
Spock wound up carrying everyone's gear.
What can you say this is an awesome show with awesome writers and talent
Lol
Lifelong Star Trek lover. This makes no sense. Vulcans spend their lives dedicated to suppressing their emotions and harnessing logic. They aren't just "Vulcan abilities." Vulcans actually feel emotion much more strongly than a human, which is why they spend their lives suppressing them. I'm extremely disappointed. It is a bit funny but pretty annoying that they ignore the very nature of being Vulcan. If they just addressed it slightly and gave them something to counter the emotions it could have been fine.
It's also a bit annoying that it happened almost immediately whereas similar transformations usually took time and weren't exactly easy to do in what should be the future from these events.
The (young) writers are the problem I assume . I quit watching this show after the crew needed their Captain to validate their work performance with group hugs and crying. Which I imagine mirrored the writers justifiable insecurities about their own job performance.
If only Spock , McCoy and Kirk did a group hug and cried at the end of every episode and gave each other positive affirmations of their work performance, that would be awesome

They're having fun with it. No need to overanalyze it. Like the Lower Decks crossover, or the musical episode, it's all about a little feel good humor.
@@BakerStudiosIndy no way man, it's about inconsistency ruining the Brand, the Characters, their own product. It's like cheat codes in videos games that renders everything useless and pointless, ruins the enjoyment of the game. It's like buying a McDonald's and then changing the menu to taco bell. It's like surviving after being stabbed by a Lightsaber, it makes the past 50 years of story building and canon pointless (a half century of fictional world building is a big investment) , and so waste of mental space, it's offensive to the consumer, and counter productive when they (the writers) are expected to protect and honor the story line/canon. The Star Trek writers #1 priority should be expected and assumed not to destroy their own fiction by turning it into a silly Monty Python sketch, that defeats the whole reason they were hired in the first place.
Nonsense. You're old. @@pcb8059
Star Trek needs to take itself a bit less seriously sometimes and this is one of those times
I can't wait for SNW to come back. The best Trek in decades!
LOL " Four and one half Vulcans to beam down!" Spock glances over.😆😆😆
And to think they pushed out 24 episodes of STNG year after year, yet they cant even give us 10.
Actors are lazy nowadays.
Television syndication required large numbers of episodes to sell to various broadcasters.
This is streaming and has no quantities or slot requirements.
to be fair, the quality of STNG over 24 episoes is nowehere near SNW - in fact, I doubt I could pick ten epsiodes each season of STNG that would be better than each season of SNW, although again, to be fair, I'm not the hugest STNG fan.
This was freaking epic.
1:59 Poor Spock 😢
This is STAR TREK!!!!
This gave me goosebumps. I can't wait.
It's a cultural thing. Even while Spock was young, people reminded him he was half-human everywhere he looked. One of the reasons he "ran away to Starfleet" instead of going to the Vulcan Academy of Science. Looks who's toting equipment on the ride back to the ship. I'll tell you! This is a side lesson on racism. But, oh did I LOVE the march down the hallways! I was jumping up and screaming inside--I can't wait for season 3!
> It's a cultural thing.
Awesome how an injection gave four people who'd been working side-by-side with Spock such a massive cultural change.
By awesome, I mean "the creators of this show do not deserve existence".
Here's a crazy thought!: Hire a showrunner that actually respects the IP and a team who can actually write science-fiction.
2:53 "Wooowowow, you're ears are so pointy"
Adults working in a military environment in the 23rd century btw 🙄
Cant believe this is Star Trek now -_-
I agree....😢
No one said you had to watch. Let the rest of us enjoy it if we like it.
@@brianstephens8667 People are allowed their opinions. The show is ok but it is very silly compared to previous treks...
@@brianstephens8667 no one said you had to read my comment, let us have our opinions.
@@NinjaChris77 Nope negative comments are not allowed
AWESOME! 💙💙💙💙💙
I love this show, great characters, the best Star Trek in a long time.
This is my favorite show in a very very long time. Absolutely love strange new worlds. It never disappoints.
And this is why we continue to get badly written content. Some people will eat anything
When the Original Series aired, it actually inspired a generation of young viewers to become scientists, engineers, doctors, and astronauts. Viewing this clip, I think the writers and producers are encouraging impressionable audiences to pursue the art and science of professional clowning.
Or hair stylists
Christ! How tall is Pike's hair going to get THIS season? lol
Four and one-half...OMG, I love it!!!
Now THIS is Star Trek !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
LOL!
Vulcan Pike twirling and shouldering a Lirpa...LOVE IT! (Wis h is wasn't still 7-10 months until we see the episode).
