Star Trek: Discovery S3E12 “There Is A Tide…”

I haven’t actually watched the new show or anything (no untagged spoilers in this thread, please), but this is the general vibe that I get from reading comments from people who have.

    I don’t watch star trek anymore. Havent watched SNW, haven’t watched this either, and won’t ever.

    I hope one day I can go back and watch TNG or DS9 again without feeling the cringe from ST Picard.

    I watched 5 episodes of STD and dumped it, it was awful CGI slop. I regretfully watched the nu trek movies and they’re literally much worse remakes of earlier star Trek movies.

    Then came ST: Picard, which has managed to ruin even TNG for me for a long, long time. I knew it would be terrible but everyone and their mother was repeating the aggressive marketing campaign that it would be absolutely awesome and ooooohhh god it was bad. They fucking ruined Q… That pissed me off.

    Want to watch the true successor to star trek, in heart and mind? Wat h the Orville. Seasons 1 &2 are awesome, 3 kinda went into the same shit direction like star trek with longer episodes, weaker stories and much, MUCH more CGI to make up for it and hope we wouldn’t notice. Season 3 is still not AS bad as nu trek, but it’s close. 1&2, though, best trek since DS9, they even have their TBOBW moment!
