Whilst I do like Queen Latifa, she is very talented, I do think the casting is a poor choice for this. If one word could be used to describe this show, its Implausible. The athletics - Implausible. The combat looks staged, and then there is all the politics I am intentionally sidestepping. I think I managed halfway through the first series before I had enough. This is not to say a woman could not pull this off, but she would need to be lean and mean, like Vasquez from Aliens, Lashana Lynch and Grace Jones from 007, and countless other female action stars who look the part. I'm sorry but as great as Queen L is, a larger than life person pulling off those kinds of athletics and combat is just implausible, I mean I get out of breath having to run up a few flights of stairs! If you're going to peddle politics, at least make it plausible.

I have seen some bad Sci-Fi in my time and this ranks up there among the worst. It is cheesy and corny - not in a good way. Every single character is poorly written, shallow and frankly overly dramatic. Everything seems forced. There is a very diverse character set which has been made into little more than caricatures to virtue signal. In a word, Cringe. Picture a ship full of Wesley Crushers, now add lack of impulse control (hormonal teen level of poor impulse control), soap opera levels of drama and the worst kind of Pseudoscience you can imagine (making Star Trek look mild by comparison) and you're about halfway there.
