@Piers @z500 I remember in the early days of commercialization of the interwebs, the capitalists just could *not* wrap their heads around the idea of *sharing*. Legalities aside, putting music or art or whatever that you had spent money and time on, and then just… putting it out there for anyone was so foreign to them.
Unfortunately it ends with an unresolved cliffhanger. Although I feel like they dropped enough hints that you could kind of imagine how the next season would go.
Don’t let that stop you. The show sputters here and there, but the story is intriguing. Anyone that complains has clearly never seen seasons 1 & 2 of ST:TNG, and Dark Matter’s entire run is only 39 eps.
And with all due respect to Brent Spiner, Zoie Palmer as the android is *fantastic*.
To be fair, TOS didn’t really go hard on Spock+Chapel, but even being a doofus kid, I shipped it.

TOS could be downright goofy sometimes. Tribbles, Harry Mudd and his android wives, Spock jamming with the Space Hippies™. Sure, there were heavier episodes like City on the Edge of Forever, but … c’mon, it was the 60s! Not everything could be US Space Navy vs the Evil Aliens.

“or indeed society”
Watch Mad Men for a taste of the culture of the time. And as a modern show, Mad Men probably toned it down a lot.
It was terrible if you were expecting magic-wielding Chosen Ones and laser swords. If you enjoy anything else, it was outstanding.
