I usually love bad humour. But these Very Short Treks are just terrible.
I do like the TAS animation style though. And that the actual actors are voicing the characters is great too. Everything else … not so much. Bummer. 🙁

It’s from the second episode of Season 1 but Saru is wearing his uniform from Season 4 of Discovery.
I’m pretty sure it’s a nod to TAS and other cartoons of the era having inexplicable errors when it comes to character models and animation.

I think this one is better than the last one, but that’s a very low bar to clear. The animation is done well in TAS style. This episode is like a Saturday Night Live skit that falls flat. Not innovative, just tepid. I’ve now learned to temper my expectations for the rest of the Very Short Treks.
I know it is low budget but does the humour have to be so Family Guy?
These make Picard look like a masterpiece
These are just horrible. Attempts at dry humor without being smart. I feel embarrassed for the writers.
Well, that’s oh for two. I don’t think this instalment was quite as rough as the first, but it also didn’t have Pete Holmes, so it gets points for that alone.
For whatever reason I assumed each of the VSTs would be done by different studios, but this is the same team that worked on the first. I don’t have high hopes for the rest.
I suspect each episode will have different styles of humor as a form of experimentation to see what sticks to the wall.
