    Sure, but TOS is soooo much more than Twilight Zone in space. Is Kurtzman Trek really more than [insert YA series] in space?

      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.
