    I don’t even really like Disco but Ethan Peck is a great Spock. Thankful that they put him in Strange New Worlds too.

      I hate to admit it but Disco is good trek with some moments of absolute greatness and brilliance and I am glad the writers were allowed to take huge swings that landed. It’s not perfect and it’s certainly an entirely new type of Star Trek [I could do with less production, FFS.] but I was a hater season 1 and I’ve come around in season 4. Four definitely isn’t as strong as 2 or 3, which is unfortunate.

        I don’t hate it, but I also strongly dislike Trek that doesn’t follow the episodic formula, meaning I can’t drop in anywhere and have an enjoyable experience. I disliked Picard for the same reason. SNW is much more planet-of-the-week, which I greatly prefer.

          It was bad enough when cliff hangers spanned a few months; now they span a period closer to a year.

          I mean, come on. I’m getting old and yeah, I’d like to see the next episode before I die.

            waiting for episodes is a choice you make when you consume streaming media. I waiting till now to watch any of the new trek series so I get to watch Discovery, Picard, and 3 seasons of SNW all at once without having to wait.
