I’m finding it a very root-beer-flavored entry in the franchise.

    Yes! They are so fallible, and believably so most the time, that I really appreciated their missteps.

    The only time I didn’t appreciate thinking was when it decontamination time. I just pretend it is like watching an old b/w show with an embedded detergent ad: an unfortunate relic of its time that is just baked into it.

      Decontamination time is fucking stupid. Like, the idea of it is good because we literally did that with Apollo, but in practice it’s just a chance to have semi-erotic fanfic play out as canon.

      The horniess of the early 2000s makes Gene’s vision of the Original Series seem downright conservative.
