WIDELY CONSIDERED ONE of the best new Star Trek series – we won’t pick, you can’t make us – the second season of Strange News Worlds is much anticipated. Blending established pre-Original Series canon with a much-loved “story of the week” format, the adventures of the Enterprise crew before Kirk sat in the captain’s chair return this month with 10 new weekly episodes.
SFX beams onto the view screen for an audience with Pike and Spock.
How does season two up the ante for Strange New Worlds?
Anson Mount: In several ways. Starting a TV show has a lot of tripwires because you are trying to lay down footprints that you have to tread for a while. You really can get off to the races after that – the style of the show, the themes of the show, the tempo is all laid down when that track is laid down. That’s one way.
But then also, I feel that it is pretty palpable that we took some risks in season one that the powers above us weren’t so sure about. But those episodes tended to pop for us. So we’ve been given a lot more leeway to take a lot more risks and I think that you’re going to see that very clearly in the material and the execution of the material.
