Hello /c/sciencefiction lemmies. I've put together an image of some of the most discussed shows from July 2023.

Are there any science fiction TV series you are currently in the middle of watching or plan on watching in August?

Here is last months post. What are you Watching? (July 2023)

I'm still trying to figure out why kirks brother is being shoehorned in. Most of his season one scenes had him just standing there. He was even knocked out 5 minutes into a mission. I love the "holodeck" they use for set extensions, definitely better than any green/blue screen from previous series. At least brother-Kirk is getting more to do in season 2.

My only issue with this season is that the worlds they are going to are neither strange nor new. It's always a previously-discovered or previously-visited planet or even one that's already a Federation world. Still love the show, but it's not a good name for this season.

I honestly don't hate it. It's probably my least-favorite Star Trek, but I can find grains of goodness in it. For example, I really love Saru. Doug Jones' performance in that make-up is amazing. He does so many little things with his movements to make them non-human.
