🖖 I strongly encourage most Star Trek and sci-fi fans to give 'Starfleet Academy' a chance with an open mind. The season 1 finale was very good IMO.

❌ Don't @ me if you're just going to disagree/troll. It's not a show for everyone but that's OK.

I do actually have more than a few critiques (ship design among them) but overall it's an interesting fresh take on Star Trek that feels accessible to new viewers (a good thing). "Space Hogwarts" is what my partner started calling it and Holly Hunter as "Headmaster" Captain Nahla Ake is a highlight for me, she's quirky and eccentric in such a fun way.

While I've been very slow to learn to like the Discovery spinoff timeline the series is set in — a distant future from established TOS/TNG canon — it's doing better world building and politics than most Trek since the 90s, largely because of the distance from "sacred" canon that nerds get so upset about.

Anyway I'm looking forward to season 2 and haters can suck my antimatter exhaust manifold 🖖🚀
