Poor writing, fair acting

They go to a world where the people have disappeared. What happened to them? We never really find out. They are "rescued" and never mentioned, again. There was a dog on the planet that frightened a crewman. Where did it go? It, too, is never mentioned, again.

The writers are spending way too much time trying to get the audience to like its main characters that they are leaving HUGE holes in the story. They mentioned something about holograms. Are we supposed to think they have portable hologram machines that somehow created the images of survivors and the dog? They didn't even HAVE holograms in the original Star Trek!

Where is the camaraderie of the crew that was an integral part of the original? Where's Bones? He was wonderful for adding comic relief. This doctor has no personality. In this series they try to force some humor, and it's not funny!

This episode was truly awful. But, so far, none of them is truly good.

As an original Trekkie, yes, I prefer that original term, I am very disappointed. And this episode was just plain awful!
