Academy as about building back those ideals, structures, treaties, etc. that made ST feel like a utopia. It takes work to over come the prejudices, animosity, and bad habits of generational trauma and backwards thinking. Regardless of whether the show ends up being good, I can’t think of many messages that we today need to see demonstrated more clearly.

Episodes 4 and 5 of Academy are the best so far (5 is most current at time of writing).
