TNG & Voyager had Holodeck episodes.
Most series throw in a few episodes that are "Star Trek crew, but...(Insert weird genre here). Usually they are terrible, but SNW put their tongue firmly in their cheeks and made a pretty good episode that really played around with the trope.
Chong, Mount, and (don't know the actor who plays Hemmer), all did amazing, I legitimately laughed out loud a few times.
They advanced some plot, got their weird fantasy episode out of the way, and made me laugh.
All in all, pretty well done.
Half a season in, and I already know more about every crew member than anyone other than Michael in Discovery.
I'm really loving this show.

Hemmer is played by Bruce Horak who is from Calgary!
You can usually see him on the stage here or doing his art. I highly recommend seeing his one-man show "Assassinating Thomson" if he ever brings it back.
