Spoilers Star Trek: Scouts Discussion Thread

Common Sense Media calls it like it is:

2/5
Formulaic preschool series lacks depth, fan service.

The show misses the mark for its audience and expectations. Meant for preschoolers, Star Trek: Scouts grabs their attention with bright colors, loud sound effects and fast-moving images. However, it doesn't go deeper than that. The show is formulaic, with the same conflict in every episode. While this makes it easier for younger kids to follow, they will also outgrow it quickly. Despite its connection to Star Trek, there's little of that series in it. While the franchise might draw parents in, it won't keep kids watching.

Violence & Scariness
2/5 a little
There are asteroids incoming in every episode, and a ticking time bomb for impact. Alarms blare and create a sense of time pressure. However, there's little sense of dread.

I don't even want to watch it to make fun of it anymore.

I don't even want to watch it to make fun of it anymore.

It would be hilarious if this ended up like Star Wars: The Clone Wars where it starts out almost painfully bad and then five years from now people are saying "Yeah, but if you can make it past episode 60 it's awesome!"

Very, very unlikely, but it would be pretty funny.

Disclaimer: Despite several attempts based on numerous recommendations, I've never finished Clone Wars season 1.
