History YMMV / StarTrekRenegades

* NarmCharm: The film runs on this. It's not so hard for many people to accept the campy acting and effects, because very little in the plot or visuals suggests a movie that is taking itself dead seriously. The new brightly colored Starfleet uniforms, the abundance of old-school sci-fi cliches in the story, and the many references to [[Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries Classic Star Trek]] make the corniness far more fitting than it would be for, say, [[Film/TheRoom a drama set in the real world.]]

* TookTheBadFilmSeriously[=/=]DoingItForTheArt: Creator/RobertPicardo, and likely Russ and Koenig as well. All three are experienced enough to see the problems with the pilot film, but also are on record as loving Trek extensively (probably why they signed on for this series).

* {{Expy}}: Ronara's character seems inspired by both of Series/StarTrekVoyager's notable Betazoid characters: she's a sarcastic female pilot, like Stadi; and she's un-telepathic via a genetic defect and living as a renegade, like Lon Suder.

** The [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters number of characters]] and the limited scope of the film probably would've made this an inevitability anyway.

* FanPreferredCouple: Probably too early to tell, but Icheb and Ronara are already being treated by several fans like the Icarus's OfficialCouple.
** Likely because they're clearly portrayed as the OfficialCouple in the pilot movie.

* BadBadActing: Grant Imahara. Dude's an awesome Mythbuster and a cool guy, but he ''cannot'' act to save his life.
** Verges into SoBadItsGood territory, see below.
