    You hated Discovery because it was too woke.

    I hated Discovery because it wasn’t woke enough.

    We are not the same.

      I hated it because half of the characters annoyed me and the other half didn’t have enough screen time

        I fucking loathe the series for introducing “Frieza” (the half mecha character), and IMMEDIATELY killing her off. Finally a somewhat interesting character, and they get fucking rid of her. Pisses me the fuck off

      I was more annoyed at the klingon subtitle style/font being difficult to read quickly. Each one talking like a kid who just shoved a whole pack of Big League Chew in their mouth from all the prosthetics also bothered me.

        Even worse than how bad the Ferengi were with that

          You know, you just reminded me of the episode of Enterprise where the Ferrengi took over the ship. And I was surprised how much I enjoyed (most of) it, and thought the first act where they didn’t bother giving the Ferrengi subtitlea, everything was communicated without the benefit of dialog.

          I’m sure everyone else hated it, especially because of some of the weak plot points and how there wasn’t supposed to be any contact with the Ferrengi for 200 years and because everyone hates Enterprise.

          On the other hand, it had Jeffrey Combs.

            What got me was that Ferengi, when originally introduced, were practically completely unknown to federation despite rumor and conjecture. Yet by the time DS9 premiered they’re long established in alpha quadrant economics

      I hated Discovery because it was written like a chorus of monkeys with typewriters and not a single one of them got close to Hamlet.

        I dislike it because of “shit wrapped in shiny”, and the black lead woman only capable of doing one expression of emotion: You put it up my ass! But wait! maybe I like it?
