Paramount+’s hit series Star Trek: Strange New Worlds is back for Season 3, resolving that huge Season 2 cliffhanger and continuing to redefine genres. To celebrate last week’s premiere, The Lamplight Review joined other journalists for a Season 3 roundtable chat with stars Jess Bush (Nurse Chapel) and Martin Quinn (Scotty).
Here’s the Season 3 synopsis before you dive into the interview…
In season three, when we reconnect with the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise, still under the command of Captain Pike, they face the conclusion of season two’s harrowing encounter with the Gorn. But new life and civilizations await, including a villain that will test our characters’ grit and resolve. An exciting twist on classic Star Trek, season three takes characters both new and beloved to new heights, and dives into thrilling adventures of faith, duty, romance, comedy, and mystery, with varying genres never before seen on any other Star Trek.
Watch some of the choice highlights from the roundtable in our video below. Warning: the conversation includes mild spoilers for Season 3.
