Spoilers General Disco Chat Thread

Let me guess: "Jar Jar Abrams!", "STD sucks!", "Orville rules!", "What have they done to Picard?" "SJWs!" "Mandalorian rules!", "Lower Decks is childish!"... the usual stuff? Am I in the ballpark?

Nowhere near.

I thought the character was a huge missed opportunity based on her performance in “Project Daedalus”.

I did that several posts ago when I said I wished I could have seen more of her.

Hooray, we're getting somewhere. So the character development could have been better. Glad that's sorted.

More Airiam would have been good. Hopefully they learned their lesson and Linus will be featured in more episodes. ( or whoever you like ;) )
 
Personally, I think anytime I see a reference to a youtube video, I'm going to do an internal mental Find and Replace with "This guy Phil down at the comic book shop." I think that gives their opinion the appropriate amount of weight.
I mean, that's completely fair. I don't give a whole lot of weight to these when it comes to Trek. So, yes I appreciate the skepticism. And, I don't think his arguments carry more weight. But, Henry is at least not conspiracy theorist peddling Kurtzman firing rumors.

That was sorted by most folks, myself included, way back in Season One. The Bridge Crew were mostly visually interesting ciphers good for telling us about shields, warp speeds and hailing frequencies. Poor Bryce and Rhys don't even have "visually interesting" going for them in Season One ( and stil don't) :lol:

They're male, so take a backseat to side character development after Detmer, Owo, Airiam, Nhan, Reno, Number One, Dr Pollard etc etc. It'd be nice if they were given something to do, maybe three seasons in..?

Even a camera and flashy graphics won't change that. :lol:
 
Do I wish they gave Airiam more than a single episode of development so her death had more punch? Sure. But the alternative was she was just used as a simple antagonist who was easily defeated and the crew quickly moved on, which would have been worse.

Better you turn in your homework late than not at all.

There's tons of top quality content on YouTube. I know there are also lots of negative videos, especially about Discovery, but that shouldn't disregard all the great work that is there.
