Be fair, Star Trek has never been a hotbed of originality. They've always liberally sampled from other media. The whole damn franchise is "Wagon Train to the stars".

And Strange New Worlds in particular is not a hotbed of originality! I don't usually mean this negatively - there's certainly a place for shows that do something non-original well - but in the case of SNW I absolutely mean it negatively.

Not the original series.

Even The Orville has done it. Although I don't think The Simpsons have.

No, the storyline isn't new. But SNW did do it in an interesting and well-done way. And that's really all that matters.

Can someone explain this secret? I understand all the words, but I have no idea what this secret is saying. I'm very confused.

Oh good, it’s not just me!

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds just had an episode, Terrarium, and the secret says that it has pretty much the same beats as the movies Hell in the Pacific, Enemy Mine, Kong: Skull Island and the episode The Return of Starbuck from the show Galactica 1980 and The First Ones from Stargate SG-1 among others. So, in spite of the name and the Enterprise mission statement, it is definitely not a strange new world or boldly going where no one has gone before. Or at least that's what I got from it.

Does Strange New Worlds profess to never have storylines that have been done in other media? I always thought the point is to show the origins for a lot of the plot lines of all the other series, which all take place after SNW.

ayrt

I only have general idea about the show itself, I've only seen a couple of clips of Strange New Worlds. But the comment I was replying to wanted an explanation of the secret and I was pretty sure I understood the secret, so I explained what I got from the secret. Maybe they just missed the text at the top, it does kind of blend into the background a little.

DA

This is just such a weird secret. Their complaint is that the show did a story that has been done before? Are there any fully original stories at this point? Everything feels like at least a new take on something done before at this point. If the OP is holding out for 100% original, they aren't going to have very much to watch.

Well, but I mean that storyline was totally stolen from Ursula Le Guin's The Left Hand of Darkness and adapted into a novella written by Barry Longyear as the Enemy Mine novella in 1979 so basically everyone is just stealing from Ursula Le Guin and they just don't know it lol.
