I can honestly take this, though I do want more Star Trek content. I will continue to watch the show, but it's really asking for a lot of suspended belief in each episode. A random sampling of my problems with the show:
You take fresh, untrained to partially trained students, put them in a mobile school, and then intentionally fly that ship full of children into known dangerous areas of space?
We've had decades of the best in Starfleet fully commissioned officers solving complex problems, and the academy is full of professors and other well educated professionals, yet with every weird anomaly, the approach is, "fuck it let's let the kids handle this one"
Terse negotiations with a previous and potential new member of the federation are done as a spectacle at the academy in front of the students and almost no other high level members of Starfleet, instead of literally anywhere else?
There are many more, but at some point I had to just turn my brain off to continue watching. I'm not used to having to do that so much with Star Trek.
