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 think people who like Disco will like Starfleet Academy.

    The premier had some neat parts, but I think the structure, pacing and writing of the show have moved away from something I easily recognize as Star Trek and at the end, I was left more confused than interested in more.

      It took me far longer than I want to admit to understand you meant Discovery, and weren’t making a snarky comparison between those that like this show and those that enjoy Disco music.

      I liked disco for the most part but so far the only parts of Academy I liked were Giamatti’s villan and the return of the Doctor.

      The rest was just sort of a resounding ‘meh’; the plot didn’t hold me, the space-high-school melodrama between the cadets was boring and at times cringeworthy, and the big action sequence left me with more questions than answers.
