18+ Thoreau,

Why is there so much crying and so many feelings in Star Trek Discovery? I am not saying anything bad, I am just saying this might not be my cup of space tea. I like my tea to be piping hot Earl Grey with some scowling, not all luminous tears and space therapy.

Don't tell anybody I got on my cranky Gen X horse. I am not sure I can handle more dramatic sobs and pained looks.

@Thoreau this was something I thought about too, but I haven't watched past season 3. Did it get worse?

I love the way that, in the height of tension, at the critical juncture, when seconds matter or billions may die, they can always spare ten minutes to pour their hearts out to each other.

Some great characters, splendid visuals, appalling writing.

Thoreau,

@whitmad Exactly. I feel like if I were a shipmate I would be saying, "Just hit the button. Just hit the button. Just go. Just go. Go. Hit the button. Can we talk about it later? Just.Hit.The.Button!" Over and over again.

Or, quite possibly, "Snap out of it!"

Goodness.

@Thoreau

This conversation really gave me flashbacks to Discovery and not in a good way. Still, I have to say that it's a brilliant prequel that made Star Trek relevant again in an age with a lot of really good sci-fi.

Also: Anson Mount as Captain Pike is my favorite Star Trek captain.
