Don’t wanna bash on Discovery … but is there notable disengagement around the final season? (lemmy.ml)

I’m personally not watching it (you could call me a bit of a disco “hater” and s4 really kinda bummed me out) … but thought I’d see how people are enjoying it and think about getting a paramount subscription.

Asked some friends and they said they’d stopped watching. Then I checked here and the other community and posts about the episodes just seem to be tepid compared to what I would have expected.

Now obviously I’ve got a bias (and I really don’t want to start kicking the show) … but am I reading this right or wrong?

Funny, for me I was happy for that to go nowhere after the episode. It’s so big and deep a revelation that it’d just be its own show in the end to pursue it further … which I liked … it felt like something so big that even in the Star Trek era it was going to take time and effort to just digest it … which was cool.

Plus in a way the point of the episode wasn’t the sci-fi but the ending dialogue between Picard and the romulan colander about the struggle to find common ground and peace.
