The mess room scene with Tilly referring to Georgeio has a "bad ass" seemed especially tone deaf to the relationship that character actually had with Space Hitler. Tilly should have been relieved that she was gone and would have been drinking in celebration to her departure. Tilly's speech felt like a bit of projection from the production who may have been hoping that audiences where actually fans of evil Geogeio, which may have also been one of the reasons for the 2-parter farewell (the other reason being an excuse to draw out a budget-saving bottle episode).
New York Comic Con Trailer:
Release date from Season 3 thread:
In the trailer, I definitely noticed a Ferengi Starfleet Officer and that one of the voiced lines was by a part human, part cardassian character.
Something going to destory the Galaxy! Oh my goodness! 😁
You know? I think I'm done. I gave it a fair shot, even trumpeted some hype at season 3s potential but this is an inexcusably, badly written show beyond redemption. Just one sequence of melodrama after another with no semblance of intelligence between the ears.
The writers don't want to write Trek, they want to write Space PewPew and they can go with god. If, and it's a big if, trusted sources pivot and say this is a swing back to quality then cool. Until then I'm keeping distance.
is season 4 coming to Netflix in November or will we have to wait for Paramount+ next year?
Oh.. more than I spotted with the "part human, part cardassian" .. actually Cardassian-Bajoran-Human and also:
Federation President for the 32nd Century

Checked the wiki page for season 4 and it says this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Trek:_Discovery_(season_4)
Release
The season is set to premiere on Paramount+ in the United States on November 18, 2021.[37] Bell Media broadcasts the series in Canada on the specialty channels CTV Sci-Fi Channel (English) and Z (French) on the same day as the U.S., before streaming episodes on Crave. Netflix has streaming rights for the series in another 188 countries, and releases each episode of the series for streaming within 24 hours of its U.S. debut.[1]
There is one thing I noted about the season 4 trailer. It seems to have been a bit more intelligently edited and doesn't seem to give much away. You get the general setup of the anomaly eating things, but that's been known for months. I'm still pessimistic after season 3 though, so I'm not taking this as a hopeful sign yet.
I didn’t want to Google so as to avoid possible spoilers
I'd hoped with where S3 left off that S4 would be focused on rebuilding the Federation / re-establishing contact and finding out what has happened to the various races / planets. But the fact that the premise is *yet again* THE ENTIRE GALAXY IS IN DANGER!! makes me feel very underwhelmed. Having such high stakes for every single season feels extremely repetitive.
I'm just after finishing my first ever run through of S3 of Enterprise, the Xindi crisis, and to be honest I slightly prefer Discovery. But only slightly. I'll give my full thoughts on Enterprise on the relevant thread.
In the interest of balance and fairness I'll present to you the opinions of Trek Culture's Seán Ferrick who seems pretty optimistic about Discovery and for what it is. Comments on the video don't seem to be trolling much on Discovery either.
That's an ugly looking Ferengi.
It really reminds me of some sort of orc or..... Just cannot put my finger on it.... But it's very very familiar looking.
Manbat, the Batman villain.
Looks like something from Labyrinth or Dark Crystal to me but same as you it is really reminding me of something I just can't put my finger on
I was going to say the Ferenghi were already ugly but ... Yeah. There's something wrong about the design. Might work better in motion.
It's not much different to Grand Nagus or Moogie to be honest. What you also have to remember is the make up has to stand up to 4K TV scrutiny whereas DS9 hasn't been upscaled to 720 or 1080 yet.
Making better prosthetics is understandable but that Ferengi is just change for the sake of change.
It's not the detail that's bothering me, it's just something off about the design itself. I'd have to Google some images but maybe it's the ears?
The outer cartilage of the ears used to flow into the heavy brow. There's no thick cartilage on the ears any more and they're completely disconnected from the brow too.
The ears were contiguous with the brow, this makes it looks like a budget Nosferatu
Well after 900 years, who's to say he's not a cross breed? I'm not in this to tear the show to shreds until its cancellation and expulsion from Canon
