SatyrSackWhen you finally get to watch Discovery and realize it isn't actually an enormous pile of mugato dung
ZeroGravitasCare to elaborate? Didn’t watch it yet, this is an honest question.
Thorry84Discovery is very divisive among viewers. People same to really like it or really hate it with not much in between. Both sides have valid arguments, but people forgot there is a middle ground.
ZloubidaYeah I’m in the middle. More positive than negative, but I’m not a fan, especially of the 2 first seasons, it became better after the time jump.
However, even the first seasons do not deserve the hate we see.
I’m also in the middle, though more negative than positive. I love the inclusivity even though it’s a little heavy handed at times (more “let that be your last battlefield” than Uhura’s position on the bridge). I hate the stakes, internal conflict of the earlier seasons, and how far it feels from canon vs SNW or LD.
I agree the show is better post time jump, but to me it now feels like we know where the universe is going. Futures shown in one-off episodes are easy to wave away as alternate, but that seems harder for the franchise to manage when it’s multiple seasons.
ummthatguyIt seems to me the powers that be have already decided to stick with the jump to the 32nd Century, what with Starfleet Academy in production. What’s annoying is that there’s now another lost era. I’d expect a lot of Beta canon material, but not a lot of official content to fill the gaps.
