When I first saw the previews I was totally against it... watched the first two minutes of the show and turned it off. I kept going back because it was Star Trek! Most of the shows start out a bit rough, but once you get into them they are really great. This show is now different. The characters are really well done and the friendships feel real. It's got the personality of Star Trek, even if it's a bit... less mature than the 'upper decks', but it's that the point of the show. Definitely not for kids, but still love it!
