Star Trek: Strange New Worlds heralds a return to Gene Roddenberry's original vision. The Star Trek: Discovery spin-off has Captain Pike (Anson Mount) leading the Enterprise to encounter new life forms and "boldly go where no one has gone before." The self-titled premiere episode opens with a first contact scenario going wrong. Pike is forced to return to duty for a rescue mission. We see iconic characters in their youth learning from a troubled but admirable man. I was overjoyed on all fronts. A well-written script, good performances, and crisp pacing had me hooked. Let's hope this banner beginning stays true for the entire ten-episode first season.
