An accident with an experimental quantum probability field causes everyone on the Enterprise to break uncontrollably into song, but the real danger is that the field is expanding & beginning to impact other ships - allies & enemies alike.

Hell yeah it was! Strangely enough, I found it absurd enough to be enjoyable. It was a decent one-off, IMHO.
Some of it was, for sure. The worst parts of it for you, I would speculate, were the songs that leaned really hard into the Disney'esq style where auto tune was also grossly abused.
I found Chapels and Spocks songs to be on the better side, as well as the opener. A duet of Chapel and M'Benga should really be explored much more, I thinks.
To someone else's point, I do have a healthy respect for musicals as I grew up in a fairly musical family. I was treated to some of the classics as a kid: Phantom of the Opera, Jesus Christ Superstar, Cats, etc... I still need to see The Book of Mormon though.
But yeah, I can see where someone would find this very annoying. Especially the Klingon scene, which made me chortle a little.
In summary, I believe the plot was bad but it was still a playful episode and could have been much, much worse.
