      Meh, there were a few times where the comedy could have probably taken more of a backseat than it did, but the comedy didn’t overall bother me that much. I did like that it was a more unpolished take on what life in Starfleet is like, and the comedy was the vehicle that that view was delivered through. I mean, take Shax and T’ana making it super uncomfortable to be roomed close to the holodecks; realistically, who isn’t going to get up to some freaky shit with tech like that? The live action shows kinda dance around it, but I like that Lower Decks was able to address it outright because it’s allowed to take itself less seriously.
