I really don’t understand the hate this show got. I really enjoyed it! A unique concept, story driven - season long plot arcs, great acting, incredible visuals, and fantastic characters. Sure there was some goofy stuff in there too, but star trek always has goofy shit.

I really felt like this was going to be a turning point of bringing star trek out of the ‘everything-contained-in-an-episode’ nonsense, and into the golden age of storytelling.

What did you think about it?

    Well, I didn’t like Voyager much when it aired but decades later I got myself watch it all and it was ok. That said I never would think of actually rewatching any episodes and right now I feel the same with Discovery. It was nice that it started a rebirth of Star Trek series but that is about it.

    I will watch that last season but I probably won’t miss any of it later. Especially not Burnhams constant whispering to people.

      A mate of mine used to come over every week and we’s have a beer and watch Voyager. I still remember it was the episode where the gel packs were infected by Neelix’s cheese where we noped out. I had similar feelings about Discovery’s space tardigrade :)
