How Not To Make Scifi
Let's hire someone with no skills, that is, a politically-correct history Prof. And a black programmer with apparently little or no mechanical or structural abilities. He has no mcguyver (perhaps a good thing considering the recent remake), and he's going back into a time where racism was embedded in US society. Then a Delta Force commando who drolls over the proto bossy female reporter so we can virtue signal the character.
Must'be the dumbest run and staffed US agency in history.
