As a result, it took me roughly 1.5 years after release before I even got a chance to watch it.
Not that, having now done so, I seemed to miss all that much: this time around, the key season-long threat is a mysterious DMA ("Dark Matter Anomoly") that has appeared in the galaxy, causing untold death and destruction, and which requires Burnham and co to travel beyond the confines of their galaxy to deal with (cue a lot of crying and emoting and speechifying and very little actually 'doing'),
I had though, by the last couple of episodes, it would turn into a modern-day Voyager, but nope.
Strange New Worlds is the better modern day Trek show.

She has taken the story of Bo Burnham and the little mermaid and amalgamated them into what is an amazing read.
In short the story is about a mermaid who wants to see the world. She is taken in by Burnham with a promise of money to show the world her mermaid tricks. Safe to say that like all of Christina Henry's other books it takes a dark and twisted turn however seems to work out well in the end.
There are definitely some moments in the book where i was worried to read on as i thought something really bad was going to happen.
It kept me on the edge of my seat through out and was a wonderful tale of the darkness of men and magic.

Very, very impressive performance from Elsie Fisher, who's in virtually every scene, and a witty and thoughtful script (Burnham again). May be of interest to future anthropologists in its detailing of the way that social media exacerbate generation gaps and generally prevent people from communicating with each other; one of several ironies the film points out. Manages to be bleak to the point of depressing for most of its duration but still turns it around for a credibly warm and quite moving conclusion. Very relatable no matter what year you were born in.
