It reminded me a lot of Stargate Universe, a complete tonal whiplash that was clearly imitating other popular shows rather than a continuation of the franchise. I was pretty kind to it in the beginning because SGU got pretty good after I got over it not being Stargate as well, but Discovery S2 completely killed any hope I had.

    If you liked SGU maybe give Disco Season 4 a shot. I did not like 1-3 very much at all but S4 is one of my favorite seasons of any Trek series and I did not see it coming.

    I actually caught up on S4 recently, but unfortunately did not like it. S3 was actually the one I enjoyed the most of the two, if only because I thought it was really amusing that they just decided to do Andromeda.

    Haha yes. I wasn't crazy about it but it was a lot better than Andromeda which is not saying much of anything (Why god did I watch all five seasons and how on Earth did it last that long?)

    It has been a long, long time since I watched watched Andromeda but I remember always thinking it might be on the verge of something interesting then it seemingly forgetting what it was setting up and moving on to something boring again. Besides, I have always had a soft spot for dodgy look sci-fi action adventure from the 90s/00s.

    Also I had a crush on Lexa Doig.

    That last season was especially painful though, my god.
