Well when it airs, fire me a PM. I have access to a van and some duct tape and zip-ties...I can get you out of there. We'll make a good show of it!

The van even has an on-board kegerator. We get somewhere where we get decent Wi-Fi we can drink beer and do a DS9 rewatch until your wife forgets all about it. Might even get some ransom out of the deal?

My wife went to High School with one of the actors on Discovery so we tried to watch it and we still couldn't choke it down. One of my clients was in the Section 31 'movie' and that was brutal. So I feel your pain and am offering my assistance.

It might be that the only way to survive this or enjoy this is to do a Mystery Science Fiction Theatre treatment of it and put it up on Youtube.


Of course the sounds of palms slapping foreheads would overwhelm the audio.

The writers and show runners don’t care enough about Trek to even bother explaining it.

It will be identical to “Spock has a sister” and “Kilingons don’t have hair”.

Sadly...I think you're right.

There was so much potential for this show but at first glance it looks horriawful.

Why of why did they think it was a good idea to plunk it into the Disco-verse?
