    Eh, TNG had a rough start too, but became awesome. Note that it took two plus seasons to become consistently good.

    Academy has lots of rough spots, especially in the writing, but it is not irredeemable. It just needs time to find its tone and audience.

      I agree with what you said but I’m kind of confused about this… Like the audience is there, its been there for 30 years. Why would you want to find a new one.

        Not every show appeals to every Trek fan.

        Just as Enterprise didn’t appeal to me, so Academy won’t to others. But if the show goes on long enough it may attract those trekkers who find appeal in a semi-angsty drama among a college age cast in a progressive academic setting.
