Spoilers Star Trek Academy [spoiler thread]

I love how snarky you are!

It’s my primary character trait. After 51 years (27 right here on ENW) it ain’t gonna change anytime soon!

So after a couple of days thought.

It’s Harry Potter in space but with 20-yr olds and if Harry didn’t want to be there.

It doesn’t feel like Discovery at all.

I wasn't asking you to!

Is that a good thing? I liked Discovery and thought it was very Star Trek. I know a lot of people don't share that opinion, though.

I can’t answer that for you.

 

[pukunui]

I can’t answer that for you.

You can't tell me what you meant by that comment? What does "it doesn't feel like Discovery at all" mean to you? Do you like it better than Discovery? Less? Can't compare because apples vs oranges?

I say this as a fan of Discovery, but the main thing I found sometimes challenging was how breathless Disco could be. We have to shoot this exposition sequence with spinning lights and camera, this character has to have a emotional crisis while we figure out how we're solving this week's plot and then jump into a fist fight with the villain and deliver a monologue about Starfleet ideals ... gasp

And there are some glimmers of that, but in general, this show is a lot calmer. We got the Doctor singing opera, I'd missed seeing our characters indulge in art.

I'm following along in this thread to enjoy the show vicariously since I can't watch it myself yet. I've done that with a number of others as well. Y'all know I don't care about spoilers. My children are always complaining about how I like to spoil things for myself. LOL.

Are you me? Im watching thread for same reason my kids at least know i like spoilers, so they watch the movies/ shows i can't and let me know what happens
