Glad to see someone else hating on discovery, on the Star Trek subreddit everyone’s obsessed with it and I thought it was hot garbage

[–] accideath@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

I‘d say Discovery has its moments (aka those including Jason Isaacs or Anson Mount) but yea, the Series as a whole is rather bad with an annoying as fuck main character…

[–] themoken@startrek.website 2 points 10 months ago

All of the arguments I see for Discovery are based on representation and that's literally the only thing the show got right. It's like yeah, it's great to have a diverse cast... I just wish they were on screen doing something good. Trek lives and dies in the writing, all the acting, effects, and out of universe concerns won't save it from absolutely horrendous writing.

If they'd have done SNW style plots with DSC cast, it would have been amazing from the beginning.
