Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 2 Finale Has Fans Freaking Out About Season 3
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' Season 2 Finale Cliffhanger has fans freaking out about what's going to happen when Season 3 (eventually) arrives.
Now THAT Was A Finale!
A "Best of Both Worlds" inspired finale to a great S2. Lots to talk about, but the big thing for me is the depiction of the Gorn. They were like a combination of the Borg and Xenomorphs. That final shot of Pike says it all, never seen him so scared. #StrangeNewWorlds • #StarTrek pic.twitter.com/AOt9RQPgDG

TV show finales can be pivotal: Star Trek: Strange New Worlds understood the assignment and nailed it.

The war with the Gorn has begun.
This season has been excellent and felt so much like TOS. It has the spirit of the Original Series. And with this episode we get the introduction of Montgomery Scott (Scotty).

Indeed, it would be hard for anyone to argue that Star Trek: Strange New Worlds experienced anything like a "sophomore slump" in its second season.

Since we did this with the Gorn Youngling last year...

For comparison's sake, here is gallery of what the Gorn have looked like during their time in the Star Trek franchise.

They got this right 55(?)years ago, well before I was born.

I’ve been rather lenient with SNW’s use of the Gorn, but the giant tail on the adult is stupid, unnecessary, and directly contradicts the design we’ve already seen. Gorn are reptilian humanoids, NOT dinosaurs. That aside, great finale! EXCELLENT cliffhanger! #StrangeNewWorlds

There is a section of older Star Trek fans that are definitely NOT feeling the adult Gorn designs revealed in the Strange New Worlds Season 2 finale.

The younger version of Montgomery Scott (Martin Quinn) seems to be winning over Star Trek fans pretty quickly.

Seriously: don't know if an actor's resume gets more qualified than THIS.

Just watched the season two finale of Star Trek #StrangeNewWorlds. Damn it. I need to wait at the very least, late 2024 for the conclusion?! I hope that they already at least filmed a conclusion!
That said, pay your actors and writers! pic.twitter.com/nSWRwDieUl

The makers of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds couldn't have known a strike would be happening when they planned that Season 2 cliffhanger – but now we all have to sit and wait, and wonder, how long it will be before we get answers.
