Television Star Trek: Starfleet Academy is terrible

[Nizam al-Mulk]

Its a LBGT........ tv show with some sci fi elements in it n maybe some Star Trek lore thrown in.

Season 1 is tolerable but that's about it.

This is like an unintentional parody is hilariously bad. Must be a money laundering scheme, it makes no sense for something so bad to be green lit. It shows incompetent people have overtaken every aspect of production these days. Every aspect is awful.

Haven't hated Starfleet so far - its better than the woke fest Discovery imo. Shame as discovery could of been great if not totally agenda driven.

If you think this show isn't a woke fest you are blind. You literally struggle to find any white males among the cadets.

The thing is, Trek has had Lesbians before but there were sexy lesbians.

Who do they honestly think wants to watch ugly fat lesbians? Sure I guess it's more realistic but nobody wants to see it.

The ugly fat lesbians who wrote the show.

 

[PBAC]

They dont have the balls to just make a new Star Wars franchises series because they know their shitty writing and directing won't hold up and they need nostalgiia.

 

[Stoic1]

The critical drinker nails it.





But here is the demographic that LOVES IT. Go to 38:20 for why he LOVES IT.

Got done with the first two episodes. Never going back. Just took everything Star Trek and fucked it up. Everyone is dumb as rocks. Everyone is caught up in their feels. Nobody is competent in any way whatsoever and acts like a two year old.

They effectively took anything with real depth and removed it. All that’s left is surface level discussions and force fed topical slop. If you took the last 25 years off from society, you would be lost with a lot of their dialogue. No questions presented that you might not have of thought of before. Nope. That’s not Trek anymore. It’s feeling and over thoughts now. Selfishness over duty. Telling over showing. Just throw in an old reference to good Trek content and that will appease the fan base…What a fucking shitshow. At least we can still go back and watch TNG and DS9. New Star Wars content is better and retains more of its original spirit and that is just sad as hell.

Watched the 3rd, and it’s even worse… ffs.
Back to books for my science fiction fix. Hollywood produces nothing of value in science fiction now.

Star Trek has been terrible for decades. I enjoyed Star Trek 2009 and Into Darkness for what they were, but Star Trek hasn't felt like Star Trek since Voyager.

To say Star Trek Starfleet Academy looks atrocious would be giving it some benefit of the doubt. It looks worse than atrocious.

If you enjoyed old Star Trek for what it actually was, then academy will fill you full of rage and sadness. It’s everything the haters said, and I wish I had my time back more than anything. I almost feel personally disrespected for some reason.

At least present us with some questions about a lot of the nonsense they throw at you. QUESTION THINGS!!! That is what we loved about older Trek! They would present you with odd and different scenarios and make you question things. Explore and question. That’s the spirit of the fucking brand…

Alright. Sorry for the cry. Best to just let Trek die and move on. Damn

Kurtzman has stated that his prime directive is not to make Star Trek shows. It's use them as a platform for BLM, NAACP etc.

I try and not think about who the show runners are so I’m not looking at shows from a certain angle. I see this is wrong. Very wrong. It seems certain folks simply cannot remain true to certain brands, and they feel compelled to destroy whatever they touch and they keep getting hired. I will definitely keep these things in mind moving forward. These names are going in my book of unwatchables.

Yeah, a lot of these IPs are captured by woke cultists. they don't care about it losing money since they hate the original anyway. their only purpose is to destroy.

Its hilarious that Kurtzman does a way worse job at promoting socialism than creatives before him did.

So far, I’ve heard it’s terrible from Sherdoggers, which means it has black people in it.

I’ve heard it’s terrible from my boss, which usually means it’s actually good.

And I’ve heard it’s really good from my friend, which means it actually sucks.

So I’ll have to watch it to decide for myself, which defeats the entire purpose of recommendations, God dammit.

Every Trek had black people in it. Every single one. It is legit terrible imho. It feels wrong at every step. Though you should of course watch for yourself and see. See if you think it captures the spirit of the franchise for yourself.

 

[Jesus X]

it's been obvious for years the kurtzman trek writers were not star trek fans/don't know the lore for shit. There have been countless lore/cannon breaks since the first discovery episode it's insane. How do these people fail upward so hard?
(from the first discovery episode, setting the tone for the contradictory cannon breaking dogshit that was to come)


i guess wheelchairs for fun?

The logic of starfleet doesn't even make sense we are even curing obesity now in 2026 with drugs like ozempic by 3200 it would be gone. They also would have gotten genetic manipulation to the point were they could make everyone heterosexual before they were born with DNA changing although that is kind of a slippery slope there into eugenics.

In Star Trek IV when the crew go back in time to the 20th century, Bones is horrified by the medical technology, regarding chemotherapy as being on par with the Spanish Inquisition. He meets an old lady who tells him she waiting to undergo dialysis. Bones replies disgustedly, "What is this, the Dark Ages?" and gives her two pills.

Later we see the now very happy old woman surrounded by doctors who are trying to work out how her kidneys have regrown.

And that was nearly a thousand years before the events of this show. Medical technology would have advanced exponentially, to the point where life threatening illnesses or injuries today would be little more than minor annoyances. Logically*, there wouldn't even be much in the way of human diversity, beyond racial differences. Because almost everyone, no matter what colour they were, would have their DNA manipulated to code for maximum health, strength etc. Fatties and Fuglies would have gone the way of the Dinosaur.

*See what I did there?

And douches wouldn't be a thing either, so I doubt anyone would be calling each other that in a 1000+ years.

Some say this is better than Discovery. Having never watched it, I can't imagine how that could be the case. This show has seriously pissed me off this morning I need to calm down lol.
