| The Wave Master 09/26/17 9:36:15 AM #153: | We finally watched Star Trek Discovery, and it is very expensive. (To quote Mr. Dink from Doug.) Thats not a bad thing at all, but it brings up or distracts from a huge problem. Lack of character development. Aside from Michelle Yeoh's character and Sonequa Green-Martin's character no one else had any character development at all. I know it's the first episode, but what makes Star Trek so great is the variety of the supporting cast. There is no Worf, Jorde, or Data in this group, and the show suffers from that. It looks gorgeous, it's well acted, and the plot is serviceable, but the characters are lacking, and because of that I'm not paying 6 dollars a month to continue to watch. The Orville on the other hand isn't as bad as the promos look. I'm shocked to be typing that too. The third episode in particular was deep and nuanced, even though it has those Seth MacFarlane tropes. --- We are who we choose to be. ... Copied to Clipboard! |
