    1. Award for the most scenes in which the guy is clueless or doomed and gets saved by either a woman or multiple women, and typically insulted along the way for being a stupid man.

    2. Award for gratuitous use of profanity in a Star Trek production, bringing a futuristic scifi show crashing down into the lowest common denominator of speech of today.

    3. Award for the most gay science fiction show ever. They had men kissing and looking at each other like a man looks at a wife. It was nasty. Personally I was rooting for the Klingons to get their stuff together and kill all the humans on account of at least the Klingons showed remarkable racial pride whereas the humans appeared to wallow in degeneracy.

    4. Award for putting Tilly on this show, who has no place on a Federation starship on account of her annoying babble, her neurotic lack of confidence. Tilly should have been used to plug a hole in the ship at some crucial point and thus given an honorable exit but a final one.

    5. Award for implausibly having seemingly superior technology than in other Star Trek series set further ahead in time.

    6. The theme song was okay. That’s probably because it didn’t have any words.
