But Nepotism?
Archer's also the first true deep space Captain in human history. Fairly green. Sometimes good and great people make weird or mediocre speeches, but he got his point across.
You posted it in response to someone talking about nepotism.
They got around it in DS9 by having it take place on an alien space station. They were still working to that framework and as a result produced some of the best Trek we've seen. Making the humans as someone or something to aspire to, not simply placing modern day humans, with modern day vices in a futuristic setting.
Yes, because we were talking about Captain Archer being written (unintentionally by very smart writers who are very smart showrunners cause they've very rich) as an incompetent nepobaby who makes the worst speech in Star Trek history.
That's why Jake is the best Star Trek kid, a normal kid who rejected being another nepobaby at Starfleet.Time to cut the nepo kids aboard the Enterprise-G some slack, huh?
His dad was dead by the time Jonathan was 20, so that was never gonna happen.
Picard S1 placed modern humans with modern vices in a futuristic setting (I prefer it to the dreck of S3.)
One of the drama points was that Starfleet was no longer Starfleet and one of our only interactions with someone in authority was angrily swearing and abusing a Starfleet legend who saved Earth multiple times.

THE PIECES ARE COMING TOGETHER.

I try not to judge shows/movies until they release. I don't care who the writers or directors are.
There have been writers on shows who have written absolute stinkers, but then write one of the best episodes of the series later on. Same with directors.
S31 is actually the first time a trailer has turned me off from a Star Trek project. But I still watched it anyways because the trailers could have been badly edited.
He just walked right in there like he was still in starfleet demanding things, right after badmouthing Starfleet on a galactic TV.

He wasn't being abused, and Picard deserved being yelled at in that circumstance.
