I recently saw Season 1 of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds.
Best episode IMO was the wackiest

You are going to LOVE Season 2!
There's Vulcan charades, a crossover episode with the Lower Decks cartoon, and a musical episode!

A man is driving down the road and breaks down near a monastery.
He goes to the monastery, knocks on the door, and says, “My car broke down. Do you think I could stay the night?” The monks graciously accept him, feed him dinner, and even fix his car. As the man tries to fall asleep, he hears a very strange sound. The next morning, he asks the monks what the sound was, but they say, “We can’t tell you. You’re not a monk.”
The man is disappointed but thanks them anyway and goes about his merry way. Some years later, the same man breaks down in front of the same monastery. The monks again accept him, feed him, and again fix his car. That night, he hears the same strange noise that he had heard years earlier. The next morning, he asks what it is, but the monks reply, “We can’t tell you. You’re not a monk.”
The man says, “All right, all right. I’m dying to know. If the only way I can find out what that sound was is to become a monk, how do I become a monk?”
The monks reply, “You must travel the earth and tell us how many blades of grass there are and the exact number of sand pebbles, when you find these numbers, you will become a monk.”
The man sets about his task. Some 54 years later, he returns and knocks on the door of the monastery.
He says, “I have traveled the earth and have found what you have asked for. There are 145,236,284,232 blades of grass and 231,281,219,999,129,382 sand pebbles on the earth”.
The monks reply, “Congratulations. You are now a monk. We shall now show you the way to the sound”.
The monks lead the man to a wooden door where the head monk says, “The sound is right behind that door”.
The man reaches for the knob, but the door is locked.
He says, “Real funny. May I have the key?” The monks give him the key, and he opens the door. Behind the wooden door is another door made of stone.
The man demands the key to the stone door. The monks give him the key, and he opens it, only to find a door made of ruby. He demands another key from the monks, who provide it.
Behind that door is another door, this one made of sapphire, and so it went until the man had gone through doors of emerald, silver, topaz, and amethyst.
Finally, the monks say, “This is the last key to the last door”.
The man is relieved to know that he has finally reached the end.
He unlocks the door, turns the knob, and behind that door, he is amazed to find the source of that strange sound…
…but he can’t tell you what it is because you’re not a monk.

13 hours ago, Certified said:Currently running a Savage Rifts campaign and for the first part of the story this is effectively what the party used, a tactical with a Light rail gun. If anyone ever landed a hit on the truck, it was toast, but it had a munch and the bed was big enough for the larger PC to sit in the back.
We just started a biweekly Savage Rifts campaign, too. Today'll be our third session.

Like, Spider-Man cannot actually contact Dr Strange but he finds some hedge wizard guy who screws everything up and Doc has to fix it.
This is a job for... Señor Mágico!

I just ate three bowls of alphabet soup.
I'm going to have a huge vowel movement.
My next trip to the potty could spell disaster.

I'm wondering if the end of Loki season two was done in an effort to cover all their bases in case they decide to veer away from Kang as their big bad.
As well-constructed as the two-seasons were, I don't think they rewrote anything to get rid of Kang.
