Iade it 15 minutes. Fucking waste of time. Also, there is a reason that it’s score is in the 40% range where every single other episode is in the 80% range.
I didn’t sign up to watch Star Trek: the shitty ass musical.

YMMV, glad you tried it.
I am sceptical of your assertion that this episode has a very negative score though. I don’t see a rating for this episode that low on any aggregator.
IMDb currently has the episode rated audience reviews at 7.0. Rotten Tomatoes has it at 100% fresh for pro reviews.
The score is lower on IMDb than other for episodes because there are folks brigading against it. A distribution that is clustered at 8, 9, and 10 then flat though the middle and spiked with a high number of 1s is fairly good evidence of a campaign to gatekeep against certain kinds of things.
IDIC, let others enjoy what they enjoy, not every episode need to be made for your preferences.

I made a mistake, TMDB not IMDb. TMDB is what is linked up with Plex servers (mine anyway) and I assume jellyfin servers as well.
For anyone wondering, here is a full synopsis (honestly you didn’t miss anything particularly important): startrek.com/…/recap-209-subspace-rhapsody-strang…

TMDB is even less representative than IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes (which already skew older, male and are very American in representation).
It’s fine if you subscribe to a group that aligns with your own views, but don’t take the self-selected non statistically valid outcome as anything but a reflection of the subgroup that subscribes.
Paramount+ on the other hand needs to draw in a large and demographically diverse audience to maintain a subscription base. The episode wasn’t a hit with your niche, but other ones will be. It definitely was a hit in our household.
