Weird, but for what it's worth, watch episodes 2, 3, and 1 (in that order for some reason) and you'll get a near-identical experience.

I've also watched Mickey Mouse Clubhouse too which this feels closer to.

Yeah, Scouts gives me the same vibes as Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, so it’s definitely aimed at 2-4 year olds, but like @The Old Mixer and others have stated, even shows like that aren’t so repetitive. I think in addition to the asteroid blaster, they could use their selection of Che(c)kov’s guns in a less redundant fashion if they were items transported to them to solve problems while being out on a mission.

Picard: There are four lights!

Madred: I see. Now we're going to have you watch Starfleet Scouts and--

Picard: No no anything but that!! Five lights, I see five lights!!!

Madred: And I hadn't even gotten to showing him the Section 31 documentary yet.

Madred: How many lights do you see there?

Narrator: LET'S FIND OUT HOW MANY LIGHTS THE SCOUTS WILL SEE FIRST!! [wheel spins] FOUR!

JR: I see four lights!

Madred: No, there are five. Are you quite sure?

Roo: Well, that didn't work.

Narrator: LET'S FIND OUT HOW MANY LIGHTS THE SCOUTS WILL SEE NEXT!!

I was shocked when the new antagonist arrived, instead of just the usual asteroid shit. They're really shaking up the formula here.

Party time for the scouts gets interrupted by an unwelcome visitor.

TrekMovie thinks Finn is named after Finnegan.

So:
JR = Jack Ransom or James R. Kirk
Sprocket = Rocket Spock
Roo = Uhura/Uhuru?
Finn = Finn(ey/egan)

Oooh ... This is getting interesting.

11-day gap feels pretty random, but maybe Friday will be the normal release date now that we're past Star Trek Day?

So much for that theory.

First two on Monday, September 8. Third 11 days later on Friday, September 19. Fourth 15 days after that on Saturday, October 4. If there's method to the madness I'm not seeing it.

Though there was a compilation on Friday, September 26, so maybe my previous guess was right and they just released today's a day late?

Or maybe it interacts with the release schedule for the rest of the Blaze channel? Or maybe it's to teach kids that life is unpredictable and aimless, filled with ennui and punctuated by short bursts of asteroid blasting?

Children need to learn this truth at some point.
