I don't know who greenlit this supposed celebration of TAS, but the writing is cheap, lowbrow and cringey. It's a total shame that the amazing animation and sound design are paired with this quality of writing. None of the three eps released so far impressed me.

I'm seriously shocked by the Youtube comments that found it funny. The latest one is literally supposed to be funny because it involves boogers. Paramount should be ashamed it spent money on this. Have they stopped for a moment to think if this is what TAS fans want? /rant

This week’s just felt designed to annoy us, what with getting the ranks wrong and all. Let alone the totally un-Trek message.

i don’t think these are meant to have “Trek messages”, if anything the point is to lampoon them by taking various Trek tropes to comical extremes (Spock misunderstanding human emotions, cultural acceptance, etc.)

for ~3 minute shorts on YouTube, i think that is fine even if it is not everyone’s cup of tea.

It's probably written by AI.
