Okay, this show continues to surprise me, and mostly in a good way.
Seth's love of Next Generation certainly shines through, though yeah, the plot is very similar to some TOS material.
Thoughts:
I think Bortus still resents Klyden subconsciously, not without reason, but it is interesting that their relationship is circling the same drain Mercer and Grayson's marriage did...but with a child on top of it.
Isaac is a (Insert "Compliment" here) but scary efficient.
Hey, a Federation Union Doctor with a fear of something *G*
Commander Kelly Grayson certainly earns points in her tough as nails merit badge.
John LaMarr celebrates a win, and you know what? I would too.
The plot is not original, but then, space ship Science Fiction is very well trod ground
Mercer is growing on me as a character in his own right.
