Don't get me wrong, I'm really enjoying this show, despite my criticism. I'd only change a few small things. I feel like they are beating us over the head with the crew stupidity at this point.
I'm willing to overlook a fair bit...but its just becoming too much. I made my complaints known about the ship's crew and, fair enough it was explained that these guys are essentially space-faring yokels.

I can make peace with that.

On the Island though? These kids werent picked at random. These Doctors and Scientists on the Villainous secret Island lair should be, one would imagine, the best of the best.

Yet they cant operate doors, they're all emotionally unstable at best, nobody seems to know WTF they're doing or why, for a place that is perpetually 'on camera' there is literally 0 oversight, nobody knows even the most basic safety procedures and protocols when it comes to dealing with Aliens...its getting a little much with the clownshoes buffoonery at this point.

So yeah, I'm with blankall, I think they're bludgeoning us to death with stupidity and incompetence that we can't just 'hand-wave' away anymore.

That cannnot be the basis of the plot of your show.
