TrekYards: "Just skip to Season 2. Forget about Season 1."

Lord Garth (stopping the video): "I think I'll just stick to them reviewing specs."

Don't get me wrong. I'm glad more people like the show now. But now I have to listen to them trashing the first season in the process. Yay. "This is like [Berman] Trek!" No, it's not.

This whole process has been a double edged sword. I liked "Brother" and I'm excited about S2. But if people who are liking S2 are going to use that to beat S1 over the head (a season of Trek I thoroughly enjoyed)...I'm going to sour to that bullscoot pretty quick.

In fairness we do beat the shit out of TNG season 1 pretty regularly.
 
Opinions will differ but I thought Season 1 of Discovery was extremely well done, and I like season 2 also.

Seaons 1 of TNG and Season 1 of ENT were both a naked drunken man trying to put on his pants in an airliner bathroom in pitch darkness
with night vision for the audience
Been there, Done that...
Had handcuffs and a leather hood on as well.

Interesting times my life has had...

(though actually had a lot more fun previous to having to get dressed)
:whistle:

I actually thought that, aside from the pilot, DS9 had an even worse first season to be honest.
 
I loved S1.. but at the same time I do think S2 is incredibly better... I think it’s best to see S1 as a sort of prologue to the Michael Burnham-story, with S2 being chapter 1.

One of them, I can't remember if it was Captain Mouth Breather or The Other Guy even suggested to just skip to season 3. They really do need to get back to long 40 minute discussions of how they think the plasma conduits inside the Steamrunner are routed or something.

These review channels are all the same. A bunch of arrogant-with-no-reason-to-be neckbeards being angry about stuff that doesn't matter comparing things to stuff that never really was.
 

God, this reminded me all over again how mad I am about how white bread those names are. Other than a handful of Spanish names and one Vietnamese guy, they're all super Anglo. Way white bread for even 21st century America, let alone 23rd century humanity. Where are the names like Goldstien, Andersen, Schmidt, Collins, Bianchi, etc - all are perfectly common in North America? To say nothing for names from South Asia, Africa, etc.

There a Nelson front and center. That's Scandinavian. :p

Maybe it was founded by colonists from the former USA, specifically the bible belt.
I mean it's called 'New Eden' for crying out loud.

Yeah, those bible-humping Americans invented the concept of Eden after all.
