MODERATORS
I love SNW but this show is held back by the low number of episodes per season. With 10 episodes it's just not possible to develop all your characters and still try out weird storytelling ideas. Although some of that is self-inflicted. Nobody forced them to bring on Kirk and Scotty, when they haven't even managed to give Ortegas something to do in 20 episodes. By season 4 we'll probably have a junior Doctor McCoy, Ensign Sulu and Cadet Chekov on board, and then it'll get really crowded.
But back to the topic: I loved the humorous episodes this season but 3/10 is really the maximum amount of funny episodes. On the other hand, I'd love more thought-provoking stuff like "Ad Astra Per Aspera" and "Under the Cloak of War". 2 out of 10 episodes was not enough for my taste.
