    We’re only two episodes in, but yeah, I’d say SFA is angling for something pretty unique. Space setting aside, not many YA shows concern themselves with the nation-building of a failed state. I’m not hugely versed, but wrapping your second episode around a diplomatic conference seems pretty unusual for the genre.

      I’d potentially be open to watching an original YA space IP, but I don’t consider that Star Trek, it’s just slapping a Star Trek label on a thing, which actually harms both brands.

        Maybe. It’s certainly a gamble. I think it’s off to a good start, so I hope it pays off. But mine isn’t the job that’s on the line, so I’m not gonna stress about it. I just watch if it interests me.
