I hope Strange New Worlds brings back Ash Tyler every now and then.

Hard pass for me. Hope to never see him again. Let’s put that awful storyline behind us and move on.

I have to agree. I like "Discovery," but the one thing about the show that grates on me so far is Ash. His entire character is just a walking angst fetish. It honestly feels like someone on the writing staff compiled the lead character's love interest out of fanfiction cliches, without understanding that the entire basis of angsty fanfiction is that it's a character we already know, who's already fully developed.
 
I thought Tyler had a really interesting story in the first season of Discovery. I really enjoyed his whole is he or isn't he a Klingon. But, after all that was resolved at the end of the season, his storyline seemed pretty much wrapped up.

I didn't like him in season two. At all. It felt like he was forced into the storyline. There was nothing about him that was likable at all -- and while that may have been the point, I just didn't think he worked. I'd prefer not to see him again.
