Worst 100 Trek stories according to IMDb users

And the season's story could easily have been told in 5 episodes... 6 at most.

DISCO really should have followed ENT season 4's format... two and three parters throughout, with a few solo episodes peppered in. Basically, long enough to tell the story but not not so long that it drags out and overstays its welcome.
I thought Disco actually did a decent job with pacing in the first season by breaking into three sub-arcs. That helped prevent the narrative drag every subsequent season fell victim to, with season 4 succumbing the hardest to it.

As others have said, season 4 had the best concept, but there just wasn’t enough story to last over 13 episodes. If the 10-C arc had covered the back half of the year with standalone stories or two-parters in the first half, season 4 could’ve been one of the best in the franchise.
 
I've simply heard enough about it to have no interest in experiencing it for myself. I'm not that kind of masochist, and, unlike TATV, for instance, there's no pressure to see it for the sake of being a completionist (actually, there are still ENT episodes I've never seen).
