each iteration of the series had problematic parts...
Discovery only had problematic parts.
Discovery has some of my favorite characters of any series. The broader stories might be weak, but Doug Jones as Saru was amazing.
Saru, Stamets, and Reno were the only parts I liked.
i wish reno had more screen time
She actually vanishes mid-scene at one point.
which episode?
I just double checked. She technically disappears between the episodes An Obol for Charon and Saints of Imperfection, but the scene from Obol she's in is directly continued in Saints with no time skip at all. Basically, if you take the scenes in engineering from those two episodes and watch them in real-time, Reno would simply vanish when cutting from one camera angle to another.
Really? I thought Stamets was the worst character. It like they sat down and said "ok, we need a character that's gay and neurotic" and then stopped writing and didn't flesh him out at all
Stamets grew on me over time. I don't know why. Possibly because he was often the only competent character on the ship. As neurotic as he can be, he's still less neurotic than season 1 Saru and has better decision making ability than Burnham.
This is accurate
This too. This is also accurate for every star trek character except maybe gul ducat.
Discovery has some pretty good, a few extremely annoying and a whole lot of very boring characters who’s name I wouldn’t even remember if you told me.
The worst thing about it though, is that it’s pessimistic, dark and over dramatic.
