Star Trek: Discovery’s upcoming fifth season will be its final voyage
Star Trek: Discovery is coming to a close.
I really don't understand the hate this show got. I really enjoyed it! A unique concept, story driven - season long plot arcs, great acting, incredible visuals, and fantastic characters. Sure there was some goofy stuff in there too, but star trek always has goofy shit.
I really felt like this was going to be a turning point of bringing star trek out of the 'everything-contained-in-an-episode' nonsense, and into the golden age of storytelling.
What did you think about it?

I think a lot of it was because Trekkies were waiting for years to have another traditional episodic series and were excited at the prospect of one getting a big budget. Discovery came out after a long drought and was different and seemed like it was trying to appeal to a broader audience. I think most Trekkies can admit it's a good sci-fi show, it just soured longtime fans as they wanted something more like TNG but with modern VFX
Also I think this RLM skit sums it up pretty well
