The new Star Trek show is being called competency porn, which kind of fits this description. Although that’s been Star Trek for a long time. I think folks are upset they’re targeting youth with the last couple series… which, the average ST fan now being 92 years old, doesn’t exactly shock me.
The shows are alright but the streaming service is the worst thing I’d ever used in my life.
•Disconnected randomly
•Commercials when paid for no commercials (had it as a birthday gift for a month and cancelled after)
•Autoplay constantly broke and would require interaction every episode instead of blasting theme songs at me all day
•episodes that did autoplay would crash, or it would start the same episode again 3 times if allowed
Targeting youth with: prodigy ✅ academy [I wait to binge] disco [maybe?] snw [nah] moopsy trek 2 [that’s launching a full spread, not just targeting the kids]
Starfleet Academy seems like it’s trying to be Harry Potter/Hogwarts. Star Trek Discovery has so much forced drama. Many of the characters are super annoying and in both shows I feel like a sense of professionalism is completely lost. Sure Starfleet isn’t exactly a military organization, but it’s pretty damn close and I just can’t take those shows seriously. I barely made it through Discovery. It was really hard watch. Picard and Strange New Worlds were just OK.

I just didn’t watch it because I heard it was bad. Also because it’s only on streaming. Is it good?
