I watched a few episodes. The article forgets to mention that the new alien first officer, instead of being a vulcan with superior logic and awesome fighting skills is from a species whose “super power” is that they have a very heightened ability to sense threats because they were constantly prey for all the other species on their planet.
That’s right... the alien 1st officer is a super beta male cuck whose power is being super triggered by undetectable microaggressions!
I guess you missed the parts where, as a prey species, he can run at 80kph and cab toss a human across a room with one hand.
