If you have any love for TNG do not watch this steaming pile of poo. Or if you needed a quick fix watch season 2 episode 2 and be done with it. I can't even begin to describe all the problems with this show. Is it my imagination or has the cartel bought out the film industry (2nd half of season 2 is entirely poking at ICE/immigration)? I was going to give it 2 stars for being slightly more watchable than discovery but then I keep remembering how bad the writing and acting is. Why is a captain of a starship smoking a cigar on the bridge? I don't think the writers for this watched a single episode of The Next Generation.
