I mean… Alternate opinions don’t bug me. I’m not an admin of Startrek.website. I’m not gonna have a screaming meltdown because you don’t like a show I like. The people who bug me are the people who speak unilaterally as if they’re the be-all and end-all. Like the “Discovery isn’t real Star Trek” shit gets an instant block from me. Otherwise I don’t really care. Might block people who are extremely irritating about their opinion but that requires like… constant removediness and being rude to people who do like the show over the course of multiple threads.
For the record?
It’s the greatest since TNG. Including Lower Decks.
I’d agree. Just because I like Discovery, and that it means a lot to me with the queer representation, doesn’t mean that I think it’s the best thing ever made. I think it gets a lot of unfair shit, much like TNG/DS9/VOY/ENT did back when they were released, but there are also legitimate complaints. Discovery has its problems. I mean the final season was so bad I almost changed my username on Lemmy…
It wasn’t about the time setting. I mean they jumped around in time. It had two main issues, one was the strong focus on Michael Burnham as the main character. It had to be Michael coming up with all the important solutions or helping others to find their solutions. It got a bit better over the seasons, but then the second issue was the same as also the Picard series was suffering under. A grand start into a season, big issues, weird things happening but by episode 3 or 4 the writers fail to bring it all together in a manner that makes sense.
Somehow not happening in SNW. Although watching the first episode of this new season made me wonder why we needed a cliffhanger for that at the end of the last season.
I have no problem with Michael being the focus of Disco, but yeah, there wasn’t any cohesion in much of the overall storyline. (With all of its problems, I still enjoyed Disco until just after they returned from the “other place”. [Trying not to spoil])
For the life of me, I still don’t know what they were trying to prove with massive pivot on the Klingons. They should have made those characters a separate race and used them as a first step in positive Klingon/Human unification, in stereotypical Start Trek fashion. (I mean, the timelines and lore was so broken by Disco, anything goes at that point.)
Love this series.

(Please don’t let Stamets flame me.)

Nothing is better than lower decks. Fite me!
It really is. Disco was so shit.
Some people call it STD it’s so bad
Disco might have worked if it had been set after Voyager.

The thing with the Klingons was likely trying to explain why the TOS Klingons were just guys with curly hair.
I like the DS9 time travel episode where Worf says, yes those are Klingons, and no we’re not going to talk about it.
