It should end with Riker and Deanna on the holodeck
No it’s a cgi aged-down Wil Wheaton, and Riker barges in to tell him he’s late for his shift at navigation or whatever.
Are you saying it was a holo novel with Wesley Crusher playing as Michael Burnham?
Well, I don’t necessarily need Riker, but then I never thought Disco was really Star Trek. It could stand on its own feet perfectly fine but shoehorning it into TOS killed it for me. VOY and DS9 were great and showed that you could do different and still fit well.
I always felt like they stretched a Star Trek skin over another IPs pilot in season 1
It reminded me a lot of Stargate Universe, a complete tonal whiplash that was clearly imitating other popular shows rather than a continuation of the franchise. I was pretty kind to it in the beginning because SGU got pretty good after I got over it not being Stargate as well, but Discovery S2 completely killed any hope I had.
If you liked SGU maybe give Disco Season 4 a shot. I did not like 1-3 very much at all but S4 is one of my favorite seasons of any Trek series and I did not see it coming.
didn’t he play grudge
I am so sorry but I cannot give you the point. You forgot to say “umm…actually”.
I’m sorry but… I’m particularly offended by you pointing out numbers here. 50 years? Fuck you. Just… fuck you.
TNG aired in 1987, so it’s only 37 years. Whomever it was that wrote that headline stretched a bit to generate some extra clicks. Yeah, TAS ended in 1974, but there’s still 13 years in between where there was no Star Trek, which is apparently getting lumped into the Star-Trek-that-Riker-has-shown-up-in bundle.
I mean, that’s technically correct then. The last time there was a Trek Show without Frakes was 1974 (50 years ago)
The last year there was a star trek show without frakes was the year before tng was released…
Meh. Looking forward to this show dying and making way for the good, new Trek shows, like LD, SNW, and Picard’s Season 3 (sorta).
So tired of Michael Burnham and her stupid “Magical Burnham Problem Solving Mary-su Solution Express”. Really too bad, because Saru, Tilly, Georgiuo, Staments, Adira, and basically all of the other characters are REALLY interesting in this show. Unfortunately, they didn’t relegate Burnham’s character for being a “get out of writer’s block free card” to the background and that basically doomed it.
Prodigy too, first season was fantastic.
You’ve described precisely how I feel about Disco, Trek is supposed to be about the whole team solving problems but somehow in any century…the destiny of the universe is all about her. Remove deus ex Burnham from the show and it could be so much better. Saru, Stamets and all are great, they’re just background to the Michael story.
Yeah the show would be so much better if they didn’t rely on Burnham as the “solver of all things”. Literally the first thing they do with her when she walks into Starfleet Command after the time jump is go “YO HAVE YOU TRIED THIS SOLUTION TO THE PRIONS?”. It’s like the writers can’t help themselves.
I wouldn’t be surprised if she has a stupid, uninspired speech that is a “These are the voyages” rip off at the end of the finale episode right before they inexplicably promote her to the Admiralty. It would be a fitting f*** you to end the show right in line with what the writers have done so far.
