Time to save the whale forests.Oh, wrong show.Or is it?
Disco of course.
My guess on the secret.....she's a virgin.
Classy.
Now that's what I call improving race relations.
so far so great. once again a great setup for a great cast. Stamets and Burnham really standing out. Once again SMG shows just how great Burnham is.
A time crystal!
ground hogs day meets edge of tomorow. lovin it
In other words: it's wholly unoriginal. Which in self wouldn't be a problem if the writing wasn't so fucking awful.
A time crystal!
its actually incredibly intriguing a concept. the source links in here are good reads.

And yet nothing about giving caricature villains omnipotent powers to kill someone over and over in needlessly graphic ways because 'fun'.
originality is overrated.
this writing is great and wonderfully advancing the characters.
No.
The writing on The Americans is great. Or The Crown. Or Transparent. Or Handmaiden's. Or Thrones. Or PoI. Or Stranger Things. Or House of Cards. Or Orange Black. Dexter. BreakingABQ. Or a 100 other examples I could list.
This is sophomoric shit.

So, Star Trek?
Look, this show deserves a lot of criticism, but most shows are going to come off as "sophomoric shit" when compared to The Americans or Breaking Bad.
But then again I wouldn't put Game of Thrones or House of Cards or Dexter on any list of good writing.
