The show isn't selling me on the relationship between these two. She's belittles him, insults him, sits back while he gets mauled and abused, and is just generally an obnoxious cunt to him.

I think him not ratting her out to Captain Blacklady was supposed to be a heartwarming moment meant to show how much he respects her, but it completely falls flat, especially since Captain Blacklady forgetting his name and snubbing him for credit is completely contrived in order to stack the deck.

They needed a veteran of Futurama to pull off the Star Trek comedy thing, not fucking Reddit and Memey. The only jokes those guys know is "characters yell their dialogue really fast" and "Ha ha. Jerry sure sucks, amirite? Let's laugh at him being humiliated".
