lightofdayeYep, episode 4 is long out and I've only just finished 3. Still stopping and starting the episodes a lot. Don't know if it's just my attention span as a whole that's an issue or not gelling with the episodes/series itself.
anyway, this at least had one advantage over the second episode. It's definitely an academy episode about the academy, not one that's had to find away to include the academy in something else.
to whit, sport's tryouts and school pranks. Fun, fun.(/s) Once we got past the phaser tag into the end of the episode and the lessons learnt, it got a little better but still Reno had to explicit spell stuff out for Darem.
So Darem's got a freudian excuse, cool, he's still a massive massive dick, I'm not sure it works out in his favour.
I actually Kyle in the war college seems to be not as much of a dick and genuinely amused/nice about both Jay-den stalling them and the planet invasion at the end. I hope we see more of him. It'd be nice to have more than one token nice person at the college.
Less happy that the two nastier ones were vulcan and romulans. Can't we have some nice vulcans again please? Why does the franchise always dickify them?
Genesis is cool and I like her with Jay-Den, instantly accepting his pacifism and them him coming through when he could help out pacifistically. So to speak.
Still not gelling with the captain and Lura sadly.
Like by the end this episode was a fine, rather standard school thing. Not mould breaking but still... fine.
