4 Ups And 5 Downs For Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 3.4 — A Space Adventure Hour

4. UP — Moon Shine

In amongst all the holographic eccentricity, at least one person was having a good time. La'An fully embraced the role of Amelia Moon, as did Christina Chong. Even when the safety protocols malfunctioned, the chief of security took it all in her stride. If you've fought flesh-and-blood Gorn and survived one of their 'breeding planets,' a few holograms are hardly going to be a bother.

Chong deserves as much credit here as her co-stars mentioned above. Not only does she play detective in a different accent, she also dances (again) with dialogue, and delves back into La'An's romantic side. However we might feel about the Spock-La'An romance itself moving forward, we certainly can't fault the acting.

If the holodeck had stuck around, it would have been fun to see more (less meta) adventures with Amelia Moon.
