Not too woke, imo. But too many hugs circles and happy crying at the end of each episode (Disco)

    disco's problem is that the overarching plot is insane. i'm all for enthusiasm and happiness but when the culmination of an entire season is "a man-baby's crying caused half the galaxy to explode" then my disbelief-suspenders are snapped back on hard enough to leave marks.

    well, sure. but like, the burn was this big mystery plotpoint for sooooo long and then the resolution just stupid. i watched until season four and the long arcs never resolved satisfyingly. it's a bit like lost in that way. which is a shame because the characters and their chemistry kept me watching. except michelle yeoh's character, which i never understood the point of other than to set up the section 31 movie.

    maybe i interpreted it wrong then. i think i gave it a fair shake, and i enjoyed each episode in isolation, but the big plotlines didn't click for me. when strange new worlds started i left discovery behind.

    it's quite obvious where you stand on this, of course, so i think we can leave it at that.
