Star Trek: Discovery

The first two seasons were awesome. Very good writing. Now with the third and especially the fourth season, the writing is horrible. Everything is overly dramatic. Pretty much every cast member annoys me now. I'm guessing the show got new writers after the second season. If that's the case, then they should have end the show there. Where did all the creativity go???

First 2 seasons I thoroughly enjoyed. (Through all seasons the constant, intense, whispered dialogue drives me nuts.)

Now everyone on the ship needing to be acknowledged for their feelings and overly emotional sense of being completely overshadows any mission.

This should be called Star Trek: Self Discovery because it's more like an aggressive HR sensitivity training seminar than anything Star Trek.

If Star Trek is what you're looking for, this isn't it. If you want a sci-fi, poorly written soap opera, this is your jam.

There's about 15-20 minutes of each episode worth watching if you're interested their actual mission. Skip skip skip

This review now contains 600+ characters.

I really like ST and grew up with Kirk in the days if you missed an episode, you missed an episode!, Even in Picard days , I'm that old. I loved the original and Next Gen. The stories, the acting , sets and characters. I even liked the early episodes of Discovery and didn't know S5 was coming. So S5? It's just a hard slog watching the captain sob, cry, hug, cry again and not do any adventuring , well not much anyway. The series is just a long chat with each other on how they love each other and will miss each other and then a bit of story. I suppose the days when a whole story per episode is long gone replaced with a 2 hour story elongated to a series of 8 hour chats, hugs and crying and the occasional bit of story.

Never have been so bored to death of hearing stupid speeches. Every 10 minutes there's a big speech about what there going in to and how important it is. Yeah yeah we got after 50th speech we didn't need another 100. Make a sci-fi program not political bull crap.

Just terrible writing and acting has devolved to utter trashy talk in season 5. I am so glad this series is over. This is not Startrek....

On plus side there are some good things such as the special effects, Saru, the engineers and the doctor. Captain Georgio was awesome as well but they killed her off so Michael could assume some sort of predestination to the Captains chair.

The tech issues are bad in this show, could the transporter not detected the temporal bug? It picks up everything else unless it is to further some insane plot line that is so far fetched that it becomes unbelievable. I have and will put my trust into Picard, lower decks, and strange new worlds. I AM HOPING THE WRITERS ON THIS SHOW STAY AWAY FROM STRANGE NEW WORLDS AND ARE NEVER INVOLVED WITH ANOTHER TREK SERIES. GOOD RIDANCE!
