Strange New WORDS - "The Sehlat Who Ate Its Tail" with Bill Wolkoff and David Reed

Send us Fan Mail

Writers David Reed and Bill Wolkoff beam aboard to break down Strange New Worlds’ thrill ride, “The Sehlat Who Ate Its Tail.” We dig into Carol Kane’s wonderfully quirky process, bemoan the missing item from Pelia’s room, and unpack the twist that turned the episode from good to unforgettable. Along the way we all want a ride on Scotty’s handlebars, uncover the challenges of building a story that balances comedy and stakes, and—naturally—explore the surprisingly tricky task of picking the perfect personal massager.

It’s a behind-the-scenes deep dive full of laughs, reveals, and a few eyebrow-raising moments you won’t want to miss.
