In "[[Recap/StarTrekStrangeNewWorldsS1E01StrangeNewWorlds Strange New Worlds]]", Spock gets engaged to T'Pring (his NewOldFlame in "[[Recap/StarTrekS2E1AmokTime Amok Time]]"), but [[AbsenceMakesTheHeartGoYonder during their duty-induced separations]] he also becomes attracted to ''Enterprise'' Nurse Christine Chapel (who carried an obvious torch for him in TOS). It comes to a head in "[[Recap/StarTrekStrangeNewWorldsS2E05Charades Charades]]": [[spoiler:Spock becomes irritated with his mother-in-law-to-be's anti-human racism while performing engagement rituals with T'Pring and her family, and reveals that [[YouKnowImBlackRight he had passed her tests while fully human]] (because of [[HumanityEnsues plot shenanigans]]). T'Pring is hurt that he didn't read her in and asks to take a break, and he ends up sleeping with Chapel on the rebound.]]

* {{Zeerust}}: Played with. The production design is intentionally adopting elements of classic 1960s and 1970s Trek. The ''Enterprise'' is extremely 70s in its decor: cream and red with polymer appliances and recessed lighting. The control panels are almost as goofy and sparkly as the original. There are crisp OLED screens instead of 70s transparencies, but they [[TypesetInTheFuture kept the same font]] as the 1979 ''Film/StarTrekTheMotionPicture''. But the CGI ''Enterprise'' exterior shots are quite modern.

* HitlersTimeTravelExemptionAct: This actually serves as part of the plot of "Tomorrow And Tomorrow And Tomorrow" [[spoiler:as the plan by the Romulans is to kill Khan Noonien-Singh, thereby preventing the Eugenics Wars from ever occurring and the constant struggles that strengthen humanity to help become a founding member of the Federation and become a massive thorn in their side in the first place.]] It's also discussed why ''this'' doesn't end up working in the long run as it is explained that [[spoiler:even when events are successfully erased in continuity from how they should of been, either other factions or ''time itself'' will correct the actions if the original place in the timeline can no longer logically exist, as explained when the Temporal Cold War forced the Eugenics Wars to be moved up several decades from the 90s rather than cease to exist altogether — only a full blown immutable paradox (such as killing Khan himself, a historically significant figure) can drastically alter the continuity of the universe in a way that timelines wildly diverge.]]

They have a couple significant conversations with Spock about his being a HalfHumanHybrid, suggesting he view being half-Vulcan, half-human as a point on a spectrum instead of trying to fully be one or the other.
