the young actors are in their 20s. I'm not sure why some haters are calling them teens.

I was a teen once, and it doesn't seem that long ago. Lol. I remember what it was like :). What do some of these haters have against young people?
Nearly the entire cast of 90210 who portrayed the high schoolers were in their 20s when that show started. Same is true for many other teen dramas.

Also, these cadets are acting like teens. (Some examples: "I'm Khionian, bitch." Caleb's behavior in class.)
 
When you're in your 20's, you should be more appropriately classified as "Young Adults".

Barely out of Teenage-hood.

Not quite "Regular Adults" like in your 30's.

I would assume first year academy students are teens. Wouldn't 18 generally be the average age to start 3rd level education ?
 
Just watched it, 2nd episode was good. Some here or there. To much "Reverence" to the old memeberry's I know, its the academy etc. don't mind a bit, but its a bit to much for me.

Betazoids are Telepaths, not Empaths. So some of the "Details" are a bit off. And the leader doing sign languange when he's a telepath?? huh?? Owell.

Maybe have Tarima Sadal be like Tam Elbrun with her abilites turned on early.

Its not all Woke or doom and gloom that half the internet says it is. Its enjoyable and looking forward to the next episode so far.

Star Trek needs a "Lore Keeper" like star wars has Pablo. Keep it mostly straight.

What a narrow-minded, distasteful creep that person is who keeps making these videos.

“They showed a bed made from programmable matter that one time and that clearly means that everyone everywhere in the 32nd century must also have them. Ake urging Caleb to make his bed just can’t be a way to teach him discipline, it’s clearly and plainly about making beds. But also, that one guy also had an automatic laser toothbrush, so everyone everywhere must also have one, or else it’s an inconsistency. And why are there people in wheelchairs when disability should be healed in the 32nd century? I don’t want to see weird disabled people in my Star Trek! And also, disabled people deserve to be mocked. And if anyone tries to engage with these points in a serious manner I’m just gonna hide behind this clearly being a joke video and they should just lighten up.”

Why are you still watching him then.

I keep seeing the comment "SFA is good despite all the negative reviews" but I have seen little toxic negativity towards this show. I swear some of ye go out of yere way to find outrage to get outraged about.
 
Yes, I try to look at everything you guys are posting here. :)

As for my opinion about Major Grin/Nitpicking Nerd, that’s my own and doesn’t reflect my position as a mod here.
