Spoiler warning for star Trek academy…

Tbh the diversity and acceptance of people in the academy is just uplifting. The way the Chancellor sits and just reminds me of a good awesome teachers who care about the academy and less about how they look in a way.

Glasses? Hell.yeah not everyone can have ways to fix or choose to fix the. ( Kinda like laforge)

No weird fucking dumb drama, episodes that have beginner middle and end.

Sign language and of course the doctor singing opera.

The short part where they went through past important people and seeing Kim being a admiral.

I usually absolutely hate new shows. But this one hits all the good I loved in the 1990s series.

    I’m not loving how childish the students act. Most are sulking and barely seem to want to be there. They act like sullen middle schoolers and not the 21yo best of the best competing. The tonal shifts are jarring, from the main character being bratty and whining and then there’s explosions and violence.

      The tonal shifts are really rough. Jarring is right. I feel like I need to watch the first episode again because they’d jump from one baffling thing to another. Why is Starfleet ripping a child away from a mother? Why is there no councilor? Why is the captain/headmaster now trying to play mom to this kid??? Oh wait emotional scene over now it’s your first day at school young man! What wacky characters will you meet? There’s for some reason a hologram child?? Sure she’s an autistic person analog but why not make her that and instead a hologram? To what end? Don’t think too hard, we’re back to violence!! Violence with some flat dull jokes! Slapstick!

      Argh. Exhausting.

      I kinda saw that as just there young and not experienced yet. Also it’s the first time the academy has been made for a long long time so the strictness of it all I would think wouldn’t have been as high before the burn happened. But I didn’t really pay attention to that. Can’t get into the drama type stuff. But valid point though
