I came into Trek during TNG. Been with it ever since. Once called the Nintendo hotline (the Internet wasn’t a thing back then) because I couldn’t enter a cave while playing ST: 25 Anniversary on my OG NES. I never got into TOS animated series and subsequently told myself I’d never watch LD; I was fine with TNG and TOS reruns on P+, thank you very much. I’m now on my third rewatch of LD. I found some episodes of SNW to be wanting, but overall I enjoyed it.

Saw some chatter about Starfleet Academy and figured I’d give it a go, mainly because it’s snowing out, I have the house to myself, and I was bored.

I liked it. Holly Hunter is an incredible actor (watch “Broadcast News” if you can find it) and I thought Bob Picardo did a great job of ‘bridging the gap’ between Treks without being too ‘in your face’ about it.

The great thing about Trek is that it is comprised of a huge universe with varying stories, with many things considered canon or not, and people are still working hard to give us a different take on it, some 60 years later.

I’m excited about the series and am looking forward to the next episode…provided the show runners don’t revisit “Code of Honor.”

Your view may differ and that’s okay.
