Episode 3 on Thursday night (if you don't watch it 'On Demand').
We are giving it a try. I was hoping for B+, but so far it's more C-. Not sure of Seth as Captain, the whole infidelity thing was old in the first episode, and downright tiresome in episode 2. We know the helmsmen will always provide a smart axe comment when on screen. A doctor as a Lt. Commander, who actually has to take charge for a spell? Ok, I'm getting nit-picky.
We've seen all the 'gadgets' other than a transporter. We're assuming this doesn't exist in Union technology.
Just not sure where McFarlane wants to go with this. It has some good and clever moments, but there is no drama, and the cast is small. I always wanted ST:TNG to have a 'Hill Street Blues' type of cast, so that there are 'shifts', meaning different shift commanders and staff, providing for many personalities, as well as one doesn't know who could possibly 'disappear' from week to week. How these humanoids stay awake 24/7 is quite a feat.
I just read where Jonathan Frakes is going to direct one of the 13 episodes. Oh, dear.
