I actually really enjoyed it. I thought the visuals were really well done.

Why did I enjoy it, because its the anti-star trek.

In Star Trek the people were at times too perfect. Their personal lives too amazing.

When they were on duty they were razor sharp focused and disciplined.

I often wondered what was really said when the Captain was away on a mission. did they laugh at his baldness, talk about what a ahole he was?

Instead this show had all of that and more.

I mean it was a bit over the top especially the combat scene in space. But I thought Bortas or whatever his name was said it perfectly when the security chief mentioned the tension on the bridge "Don't make eye contact.

They also answered the question that has been haunting people for years. Are there actual toilets on star ships? Do these people ever eat or drink? We got a resounding yes to both. Also we finally got some good view screen human with a dog continually licking itself.


I think the show has lots of potential as it tries to have serious storylines and humor based on flawed humans.

I'm also waiting for a racist rant from the robot.

Oh and for those looking for overt star trek links. The doctor played Cassidy Yates on DS9, and the doctor on the planet played Bashir's father.
