I never said it'd be writers rooms for GOOD shows. 

Fired after one day most likely.I never said it'd be writers rooms for GOOD shows.![]()
Sounds like shows or movies I liked as a kid. I'm in."The whole universe is in peril, and only a group of pimply-faced 20 years can save it. Next time on Star Trek Academy!"

I can't wait for the very special episode of a young Borg cadet getting her period for the first time. We will have deep chats about becoming a woman while the Klingons are burning down the campus...
I'm suddenly wondering if menstrual blood is contaminated with nanoprobes, and if so, is it a major hazard.
But seriously, first periods seem more an age-appropriate subject for Prodigy, no? I mean, the youngest cadets are gonna be like 16, and most women have been having periods for at least three years by then.

90's TV was definitely something
Why? This is a show about the most advanced school in an interstellar alliance of species.
Nah, it's sitcom material. Especially when mom is out of town and it's up to Dad to guide his daughter with the help of a kindly store employee. See also "training bra".Because Starfleet Academy is supposed to be "space college" with a handful of teen prodigies. First periods is like middle-school drama. It doesn't fit that age range at all. Even Prodigy made this explicit this season, with the kiddos (some of which are canonically 17) going to "Starfleet Prep" rather than Starfleet academy.
Of course, maybe some alien species get their periods way, way later, but if they're trying for the "young adult" market here. For the most part teens don't want to watch shows that recapitulate their drama from a few years back, they like to watch slightly older characters in an aspirational sense. It takes years for nostalgia to kick in, and for tween drama to not seem "cringe."
The Loom is insidious.Wait until Cadet Cunningham rides up the turbolift and is never again seen, and nobody in the Academy launches an investigation into his absence.
This is the casting news that I've been waiting for, who were the cadets.Three more actors announced:
