Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse, Star Trek - Lower Decks says "Hold my beer" and proves me wrong.
How can this be called Star Trek ? for 50 Years we have had an established franchise that is beloved by many. This show comes along and makes a mockery of it all. In this episode we that if you are disrespectful and ignore you won't be punished. A great lesson for kids wouldn't you say. I mean they say this show is for kids.
We have an ensign being promoted for no reason than to try and force them to leave the ship. Lets just ignore the fact they went from ensign to full lieutenant in one go shall we. Let us ignore the fact that Mariner became a Yellow Shirt for some unexplained reason. Let us ignore the fact that we have a Captain being petty and ignoring protocol to move his ship closer to the objective so they get more credit. Lets ignore the fact that Ensign Tendy is physically abusing a fellow crewmate. If this were a male doing this, people would be in uproar over it, but because it is a white male it is ok I guess. Lets also ignore the fact that Ensign Tendy, an Orion female is so desperate for people to like her. I mean Orion women give off pheromonoes that naturally make people like them. It is in the Star Trek Lore. But hell, lets ignore that.
They say this show is made for Star Trek fans. It isn't. It is an insult to Star Trek fans.
