I see the trailer, I don't think is the best serie in the world, but I think can be something fun to watch, to nowdays standards that is enough to me really.

I need to watch it to have an opinion, I have the feeling people need to give a chance at least, I did with Voyager despite all the negative critics I saw.

What you think about this?

Ok, I’ll bite. From the trailer, it just looks like another season of Discovery. Same look and feel, same era, many of the same cast members. And since I didn’t care for Discovery, I doubt I will care for this either.

Exactly!

The post apocalyptic Discovery future is just something I couldn't care less about. It's not interesting, and this show looks like a direct sequel to it.

They didn't even change it to an actual Academy, instead also putting it on a spaceship to just keep doing the same kind of thing, but with more excuses for the "younger and edgier" crew. So many alarmbells ringing.

It doesn't help that I grew up with the Starfleet Academy videogame, and thus that period is forever linked to it.
