The latest installment of Alex Kurtzman's sprawling universe of Star Trek shows on Paramount+, the younger-skewing Star Trek: Starfleet Academy, is continuing its bumpy run on the viewership charts. The show was launched with a two-episode premiere in mid-January, but it hasn't exactly emerged as a breakout hit. But that was to be expected, considering the franchise's cult appeal. Following the release of its fourth episode, however, Starfleet Academy briefly bounced back into the domestic Paramount+ viewership charts. According to FlixPatrol, it was also among the most-watched shows in the United States via Amazon Channels. Most impressively, it's achieving this feat despite intense review-bombing.
