Discovery is the only Star Trek besides Enterprise that I really got to like and now love. I can sit and watch Discovery easy where other series I have to put myself into the right mood to watch if that makes sense.
It's misdirection. Control used Borg-like technology to take over Leland--nothing more. Control has shown itself to be more powerful than the Collective (otherwise it wouldn't have been able to destroy the Borg in the future, would it?) and Leland is more powerful than any drone.

I wouldn't go that far. I have every expectation that with Michael Chabon and Patrick Stewart involved, the Picard series that's in development will more than justify its existence.
I'm not being facetious or anything, but may I ask what you mean by that? Honest question.I don't know. They way they've been talking, it looks like the Picard series is going to be one PC clusterf*%*.
I really hope you're right. If there is one thing I need in my life it is Jean-Luc Picard elequently telling all the internet alt-right crybabies where they can shove it.I don't know. They way they've been talking, it looks like the Picard series is going to be one PC clusterf*%*.
Certainly you know that Sir Patrick is a card-carrying bleeding-heart liberal, which is just one more reason to love him.

Well, if it set in 2399 it may very well be ushering in a new century that might be as fundamentally different from the 24th as the 24th was from the 23rd for one thing.
Then you and I will disagree on this point. I do not believe Star Trek has done enough to justify its existence post-Abrams Trek.I wouldn't go that far. I have every expectation that with Michael Chabon and Patrick Stewart involved, the Picard series that's in development will more than justify its existence.
I don't think Chabon would have gone into this without a good plan. I'm really looking forward to this, and as with Calypso. I'm expecting nothing but to be surprised (and Calypso most will agree, was a surprise)Then you and I will disagree on this point. I do not believe Star Trek has done enough to justify its existence post-Abrams Trek.
Most Trek after TNG has been kinda crap. (Still better than Stargåte.)Then you and I will disagree on this point. I do not believe Star Trek has done enough to justify its existence post-Abrams Trek.
Excuse me, how he could be better? To ignore specialists? To hear his own inner voice only, like Lorca did? Pike made his own decision to delete Sphera's data and after that invited his officers to discuss a solution because he is not a scientist and not a philosopher. Of course warlord like Lorca (oh yes, I like him!) would act more firmly... but he doesn't care about losses. Captain tries to keep his crew safe as it possible.Pike is getting plenty of screen time even in the back half of the season. The problem is though he's kind of being written as being so laid back he's kind of a pushover now. It's not even really like it's because he has to be the second to Burnham's first. It's like the whole cast technobabbles a solution and he's basically "sure, whatever, sounds good, carry on."
He's a good character, but being a shitty captain.

By the way, captain Pike is only one who didn't forget the goal of the mission: find out the origin of the red signals. I suppose this information is a key.

MU Lorca kept his crew alive for expediency, not because he cared in the slightest.
Pike on the other hand is the complete opposite.
He keeps his crew alive precisely because he cares.
