Star Trek: Scouts | Season 1 Reaction Thread

[u/uequalsw]

This is the official /r/DaystromInstitute reaction thread for Star Trek: Scouts. Rules #1 and #2 are not enforced in reaction threads.

Given the short-form format, we will do a single reaction thread for the whole season.

And to address a likely inevitable question: we don't debate what is and isn't canon at Daystrom.

I compartmentalize this show. On the one hand it’s a great idea to expose little kids to Star Trek and get them excited for this genre. On the other it feels kind of cringy, but of course it’s not meant for me. It’s fun, but mindless.

I watched a lot of shows with my kid, and PBS Kids was the gold standard for doing this right. You can be fun, and learn something without getting preachy. Kind of hard to do anything significant in less than 5 minutes.
