SNW can be ok, but it leans pretty heavy on the action, and the moral quandary episodes are hit or miss to a high degree. I can’t think of a single high concept scifi premise episode of SNW that made me say “Wow.” and stuck with me. The war PTSD episode with the transporter buffer triage was very good, but more emotional and less scifi high concept. And I’ve already seen MASH.
Season 2, episode 2, Ad Astra per Aspera is my go to answer for best episodes that I think about. It’s clearly inspired by TNGs The Measure of a Man while that episode will always be the best, the SNW episode still scratches that itch.
I’ve watched them all, and none of them really felt elevated for me. Ad Astra per Aspera was fine, but I didn’t come away with any new interesting thoughts about anything from it.
