Hello,
     You are not the only one with Issues with Avery Brooks. I may not go as far as saying he was a horrible actor but i do notice that he tends to over act in some scenes. He tends to be over dramatic at times also. I did like him though.
     I really didnt notice the foul language in the new Star Trek shows. I am sure it was there but it is something I usually wouldnt notice.
     I really like the new Trek shows. If i had to pick my main issue is that they have been forcing social issues into Trek. I know the counter argument is that they have always done that over the years but i kind of like to escape the politics of the day when watching these shows. Some of it seems forced to me. I dont have anything against it. I just see some of it as very much forced. One thing that sticks out to me is that they took over half an episode as a lesson to call the one character with the "they/them" pronouns. Again, i have no issues with anyone, i just would like these things to be an escape from real life. I know Star Trek has a history of this and i am ok with it but it seems forced on the new shows. Maybe it is just me. lol
     I am kind of missing Trek right now. I watched Star Trek VI last night. I cannot wait until i get more Trek. Hopefully with less F words!!! :)

LATER TREKKIES!!!! :)
