Star Trek: Discovery is coming to a close.

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?

    I have to agree with OP.
    Discovery had fantastic writing, great acting, some of my favorite characters ever (both relatable and not-but-I-want-to-know-them-better). Also stunning effects.

    That said, I see the crtirique that it’s not “Star Trek” and I understand that viewpoint. But I always saw it as part of the same universe, just the part OG Trek didn’t focus on. Kinda like DS9 wanted to be.

    So Discovery carved itself a niche in my version of the Trekverse, and I will always be happy it did. (Not to start arguments, but I liked it sooooo much better than Enterprise).
