Star Trek: Starfleet Academy - Paramount+

Season 2 order already in hand:

'Star Trek: Starfleet Academy' Renewed for Season 2, Tatiana Maslany to Guest Star in Season 1

I've not been optimistic about this show based on what I've read so far. Seems to be aimed at a younger audience. Interesting though that Tatiana Maslany will have some sort of role.

A few familiar faces.

Not many, but a couple I recognized. It looks like "Beverly Hills 90210" and not even set in space...

Can't believe that thousands of years in the Future and after a hundred-plus years of Federation-hostile governments that the Academy is still standing or the Golden Gate Bridge hasn't become a rusty heap of iron.

the Golden Gate Bridge hasn't become a rusty heap of iron.

The miracle of modern protective coatings. There's a reason that the bridge looks like it is painted in red oxide primer.

Maybe it's a "Ship of Theseus" situation: the Golden Gate has existed in a constant state of repair and conservation that even though individual molecules have been replaced over the millennia, it still occupies the same 4D timeline event-space as the original Golden Gate Bridge.

Wow man, like that's too existential for me...

Holly Hunter with her lisp. Looks like a teenager soap with sci fi elements. All about the younger class and getting to know each other. I didn't see Tilley in there from S.T. Discovery. She was supposed to be a teacher.

I'm sure I will watch at least the first episode but I am not optimistic.

C'mon, it's likely they'll drop the first two at once. You won't watch the first 2 (if they start it that way)?

I never start until all the episodes are available so that won't matter. We'll see, I normally watch most things Trek.

Who do you suppose is under that pile of red hair in the YouTube still?
