Technically, this isn’t the first footage shown by Paramount+ for the third season of “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds.”
That label goes to a fun San Diego Comic-Con scene of Pike and crew physically transforming into Vulcans that we shared with you back in July of last year.
But this latest sneak peek at the “Discovery” spin-off series hints at new genre-bending installments being given a certain “Star Trek” twist that include a candy-colored retro-style romp, a cheesy romantic comedy, a “Clue”-like ’70s-set murder mystery and a straight-laced documentary-based episode.

Paramount+’s titillating new teaser offers further evidence of gimmicky themed episodes coming in Season 3.
