I haven't even been able to get motivated to watch the season 3 finale. It's like an hour long and I know it's going to be not very good. I just read the plot online and yeah, about as expected, somehow Burnham becomes the captain even though it makes no sense for Starfleet or her personally. Just so sick of her. The mirror universe episodes were hilarious with her trying to act "evil" - everyone else was able to pull it off but she seemed like a kid in a bad theatre play. With Michelle Yeoh and now seemingly Doug Jones off the show they seem to have lost anyone that has any acting ability or nuance. Like even if Yeoh was hammy at times at least she was interesting. Do I have any interest in watching another season of Burnham and Tilly? Ugh.
Strange New Worlds at least has potential because we already like the characters and actors and they have solid chemistry. We'll see how the other shoe drops though, they're going to find some ways to make it woke and progressive somehow -- can't have two straight white male characters steal the show...
