Temporal Edict

This series keeps being defended for it's low quality by Kurtzman et. al saying it's "for children". This episode is full of profanity and borderline sexual violence. I think it's time for the CBS censors to get involved, because either Kurtzman is deliberately sexualizing children, or lying about who this series was actually intended for, and that since CBS failed to deliver anything clever, they went for crude.

In this episode Beckett has not as much screentime and does not interact with Brad that much. Beckett nerdshames Brad in the beginning of the episode, which clearly shows the mindset of the people behind the show and the target audience. It's a show from Jocks for Jocks. Laugh about it when a nerd is bullied. So much fun.

Beside this all the plots that happen are ok, with some actually good moments and scenes. The question is, "Is this star trek?" and i would say, no it isn't. It's silly nonsense for Jocks.

Loved this episode because I could relate to it more than any other trek episode in the entire canon. And it was funny!

I felt nothing, no laughter, no sorrow, no anger.

Just an occasional "What?!" thought like when he stabbed her in the foot or how XO is switching between being diplomatic to being a gung-ho fighter.

What's with the two angry self-absorbed black ladies? Also I noticed StarFleet is run by women now similar to the show Picard. Star Trek universe is turning into some sort of SJW agenda themed show and not in a good way. I'm all for being progressive but this...

I'm done typing.

An episode that shows what happens if the Captain does not cut the lower decks a bit of slack.

The crew enjoy a bit of buffer time, some extra time added on to their tasks.

When the Captain brings in a tight time schedule. The crew are run ragged, overtired and make a blunder when making contact with Galrek V a new planet to the Federation.

The Cerritos is boarded by a hostile party and the crew are too tired to fight back.

In a sense this is the kind of episode to show lower deck life. Also it also highlights what a squealer Boemler is.

On Galrek V, Commander Ransom gets to mimic classical Star Trek as he gets to do a gladiatorial combat.

I'm still unsure whether I can be completely onboard with cartoon Star Trek. One of the reasons is that so soon after after watching Picard and Discovery. You have to remember to switch your brain off for this.
