Following Backlash, the New 'Star Trek' Series Falls Out of the Streaming Charts

Doesn't feel right to me. The premier didn't leave me wanting more. It feels like a step back towards Disco after the great leaps forward of Strange New Worlds and Lower Decks.

Eh...I thought it was a charming show. Not much substance, but charming.

Its the word they use to fabricate engagement when in reality nobody is watching.

It felt like watching the WB. It's aiming for teen demo and I'm... not that.

I dunno about the attacks, I watched the first few and I thought it was okay but it's just another school/college/university/academy version of a show, doesn't feel like boldly going where no one has gone before. I don't have any problem with it persay just eh.

It’s strange that they doubled down on ”Discovery: The Sequel” and expected success. It reminds me of when everyone hated the Star Trek Enterprise theme song, so instead of replacing it the producers just “jazzed it up”.

A show about competent people exploring the universe?

WTF? What do you people want????
Agreed. We finally get a show set in the future with a cast that doesn't bring back characters we already know and people are allegedly up in arms about it. Perhaps they need another series set around ST:TOS with Spock and Kirk since we don't have enough of that already.

Star Trek Deep Space Nine 2, of course.
I want episodic sci-fi plots with an ensemble cast and minimal, yet still present, slow burn character growth and world building.
I want a show that in one episode is willing to say the entirety of American culture is wantonly racist and the next be about playing baseball in VR, all complete with semi-stage play-style, scenery chewing acting. Giamatti delivered on that part, to be fair, but it just felt so mismatched with the rest of the chaos.

Yeah the competence porn of TNG is very comforting in this insane times.

If we were only 4 episodes into DS9's original airing, people would be losing their minds complaining about how terrible of a show it is. The first season was terrible.

I watched first episode of discovery it seemed good what goes so wrong? (I don't care about spoilers)
