@mina @RootBeerGuy @Evilcoleslaw I have another opinion about DISCO. Good characters? Well, which ones? They are so rarely shown as individuals, that I can't make any emotional connection to them. Or they are simply annoying. Good actors? Some of them are good, but not the main characters. Constant crying, behaving like stupid teenagers and repeating megalomaniac "only the main character saves the universe" story. The visual effects are unintentionally funny. Flamethrowers on bridge, really?
I agree about the characters. It's my main problem with the series. It got a little better as time went on but so many of the bridge crew may have well been extras for the first couple seasons. It wouldn't have changed anything because it was The Michael Burnham Show.
The overarching season plots also keep getting more and more worn out as it goes. It's okay to have the stakes be lower than destruction on a galactic scale. It's okay to slow down and tell interesting stories and not feel like a panicked mess.
