Hope the rest of the animated Short Treks won't suck like that.
It's a show's 50th anniversary and they decided to mark the occasion by producing and broadcasting THAT mental diarrhea???

Missing off Kirk and Spock and having crying space Jeysus, and the empress instead is an insult to the fans.
Rob does a pretty good job covering the issues, here…

Jess Bush is so pretty with her hair long, I wonder why she keeps it short, I wish they'd give her a less weird hairstyle on the show

At the same time, the writing team on Lower Decks seems to be fans of TAS since they've had several nods to TAS on the show. They've mentioned events from TAS, a couple of characters, as well as several aliens. I suppose that with Lower Decks also being an animated series, it's rather fitting that they acknowledge their predecessor.

This looks like "jumping the shark".
Wow…
Again… Vulcan suppression of emotion is NOT genetic.
These “writers”….

But have you had the switched bodies episode yet? Or the twinning, or the possession, fungus brain fever, fake poison with fake antidote extortion to complete a secret mission..... This cheat book has a few more but General Hospital can only go so far in helping this generation rewrite Star Trek....Wars....or whatever the director was never really into as a kid.
To be LOGICAL, this genetic alteration would make them Romulan. Only training makes you Vulcan. And just to be clear, were they really implying that they would also have Vulcan weapons training genetically implanted, thus the hallway scene?

On the other hand – TNG did establish that Vulcans have both brain regions and neurotransmitters responsible for emotion suppression. That already suggests a possible genetic basis.
And the writers here remembered that Vulcan emotions are naturally more powerful than human emotions. They know their stuff, they're just being flexible with interpretation for the sake of entertainment.

And, um…the trailer represents the best of the new season to come.
So, again, they get genetically implanted training? Even for vulcan weapons?
No, I am sorry, I am attempting to have a real conversation about how absurd that trailer is and we devolve back to the one and only questionable trait. So let's focus for a moment on the morphic changes that rearrange their tissue. No. You could change every cell to be a vulcan cell but the organization of existing tissue would not change without considerable amounts of time and then maybe never. It is why plastic surgery is permanent. This is not free for room to move as a literary form of creativity. It just doesn't work. Transporter accident, yep, serum, nope. Next, now we know how to use vulcan weapons? Next, what happened to all the iron in the blood that is now copper.... also transporter yes, serum, no. At this point they would all die. Having now changed their cells to become vulcan and not having the copper necessary to fulfill the needed blood quantities, they would instantly suffocate. It simply doesn't work on any level at all. Could have been transporter, could have been disguises and could have been mind melds transferring the actual training, techniques, emotions and experiences but we got handed Freaky Friday & Face Off, Vulcan style. I get suspension of disbelief, myth, legend, coincidence but taking a fully science and physics based show and just running with "wouldn't it be cool if" and just going with whatever comes to mind? This writing has the very distinct feel of Alex Rodriguez who had his children coming up with his storylines. Think Spy Kids and Shark Boy and Lava Girl. I loved both but they weren't Star Trek, they were extreme dreamlike stories. I just now remembered why I had stopped watching this thread. My apologies, carry on.
