Last week brought us another incredible episode of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy, putting the cadets in mortal danger on their first away mission. This week the series is slowing things down for an episode who’s focusses on their home lives during a break from school. New episodes continue to roll out new episodes every Thursday on Paramount+ in the UK.
This week’s episode, “Ko’Zeine”, is written by Alex Taub & Eric Anthony Glover and directed by Andi Armaganian. Here’s the synopsis for the episode.
As our cadets return home for their first school holiday, they must choose between what their families expect of them and their own dreams for the future — including an aspiring captain who’s secretly willing to risk everything to re-write her own past, and an aristocratic cadet called to serve his planet way before he’s ready.
In our four-star first impressions of the season Neil says “Starfleet Academy successfully bridges Trek’s storied past with a bold vision for its future, even if the teenage drama elements won’t convince everyone. The stellar adult cast anchors the show while the cadets grow into their roles, with standout episode “Series Acclimation Mil” proving the series understands what makes Trek special. It’s an ambitious, hopeful addition to the franchise that earns its place at the table.”
