The engine room was clearly defined..It was probably hard for Discovery to have a clearly defined chief engineer without having a clearly defined engine room.

- Thread starter Commander Richard

One thing I did like about the Discovery engine room was the area behind the grated partition that resembled the warp plasma conduit pipes behind the mesh screen in the TOS engine room.
To my memory, we never actually saw Main Engineering. What we saw throughout the series was an engineering lab, or something to that effect.
Never. Culber definitively states he was not CMO in the first season, although the show always treated him like he was anyway. Wilson Cruz was asked about this in an interview done last year to promote the finale, but he just laughed and evaded the question.
He's their preferred medical provider.
Beats a Holographic Maintenance Organization.
That's a great analogy
Was it? I recall Engineering Test Bay Alpha, which is where Stamets did his work.
And I remember the show eventually kind of pretending that it was de facto main engineering despite its original use.
I thought only staments used the network for the spore drive ?
Does nobody remember Dr Pollard? In 16 episodes, literally a third of the series run, beginning in the first season? She's never specifically called CMO, but Culber always deferred to her.
Tracy Pollard
Doctor Tracy Pollard was a female Human Starfleet officer in the 23rd century and later in the 32nd century. She was assigned to the USS Discovery in the 2250s as a physician. After Lieutenant Ash Tyler was revealed as the Klingon Voq, she was assigned his case. Pollard was present and...

Joke, I believe. The network is the medical professionals available through your insurance.
And Culber was literally in the mycelial network for a while.
Yet another sign of how wallpapery many of Discovery's recurring characters were.
Did Pollard ever get to tell some story about her past during a time-crunch?
One, it's a joke.
Two, Culber was in the mycileal realm for a while before being restored and no longer being dead.
I didn't like the penchant in Picard for bringing back legacy characters just to kill them off. Often in unpleasant and horrific ways. Bruce Maddox, Icheb, Hugh, Q, Ro Laren, Shelby.
The show didn't feel at all like TNG s8 to me either.
The last few episodes of fan service apparently did make up for all the show's many flaws, for many people. Season 3 did have all the same problems people gave the first two seasons flak for

I don't remember her, actually. A testament to the DISCO writers' ability to create "memorable" secondary or recurring characters.
I gotta movie for you. Muted color and "no lighting"
And crying
I'm mean, low lighting, but you can still SEE and define things. Scenes of low lighting in Picard or Discovery would come through and I'd be looking at a black screen and couldn't see things without making adjustments to TV settings.
The SNW shuttlebay is massively oversized, as is engineering which they admit on their own internal layouts for the show.
Gotta accept it's a fantasy ship, that no tv/film sets in any show really fit where they're supposed to and will sprout whatever sized rooms an episode needs

When you view SNW as a dramatically fictionalized version of the actual fiction of the TOS era, it makes more sense.
