S2 E8. This corrupted Android storyline might not be so bad if we knew anything about her/it. I don’t even know it’s name or anything about how it works.

Also, they know their system was invaded but they don’t even think about the fact it was those evil aliens? They don’t even run a diagnostic on their android that could be infiltrated? Come on!

Once again a fascinating storyline is diminished significantly by lazy writing.

S2 E9. Oh god and then they think I’m supposed to give a #### that they killed the Android lady? The same one whose name I didn’t know and who had literally never spoken before this episode? Yawn. She’s basically a redshirt, who cares if she dies? She’s like one of those statistics they read out when the captain asks for a damage report and they say “6 wounded, 1 dead” and no one blinks an eye and it’s never mentioned again.

This is worse than lazy writing, it’s plain bad.

I’ve also now realized this takes place before Picard so I’m assuming that it is the same robots that want to destroy all sentient life.

I also feel like the writers know how dumb section 31 being evil is in the context of Star Trek and the timeline and keep teasing it and then pulling it back. In a good way though because starfleet conspiracies are idiotic. Although it doesn’t explain why section 31 thought Spock killed those people when he didn’t. Like no one bothered to actually ask that star base if those people were dead? We’re supposed to believe all of star fleet and section 31 were fooled by the sentient AI computer and never even checked? Talk about an idiot plot. “Attention Spock, we heard you murdered some people”, “negative, just call the star base and ask”, “oh good call, we hadn’t thought of that”. Boom solved. No galaxy wide police chase necessary.

And where the hell did Control come from on the first place? All of a sudden they’re like, “oh by the way we’ve never mentioned this before but all of starfleet decisions are put thru an AI machine.” Seems like something they should have mentioned previously
