    Is there any problem that the new Star Trek can’t solve by kicking, punching, stabbing and shooting the fuck out of it?

    I’m just about over the fact that the ridiculous levels of technology they have in an era before Kirk, it’s still bullshit, but whatever. But the general tone of the show is just crap.

    There was a point tonight where certain characters needed a plan to get out of a situation and that plan was kick-punch-shoot-stab.

    I’ve got this far so I’ll probably see out this season, but if they don’t do something interesting I don’t think I’ll bother with the second.

    • The franchise has never paid much attention to tech continuity. How many problems are solved by tech that's never mentioned again?i_monk
    • Yeah, I still think it’s been a bizare decision to make this before the original series, but it’s the general violent action tone it’s taken that has bothered..Wolfboy
    • ...me more. The whole thing is just so blunt.Wolfboy
    • This turd of a show is shockingly violent, actually, and it's a real put-off.Continuity
    • Shockingly violent? Really?CyBrainX
    • In the context of Star Trek? Absolutely. And needlessly gruesome, too.Continuity
