    First season felt like benghazi in space, second season was slightly better but still meh, and the third season is about giving the gift of fully automated luxury trans communism back to the galaxy

    It's been a long road, getting from there to here but they've slowly made STD feel more leftist

    is the writing still a clusterfuck? yeah

    is it still only barely worth watching? yeah

    am i still watching it? yeah

      The last season felt worse tbh, especially with how they were portraying Georgieu as "she may be evil but she makes the trains run on time"

        I mean they explicitly showed that Section 31 successfully killed everyone in the galaxy if they're allowed to do their thing, and basically the entire georgiou subplot was them evil bonking her on the head every five seconds until morality stuck

        different shows aren't allowed to have similar themes and if your story is similar to anything else it is bad

          Shows are absolutely allowed to have a similar premise. A Star Trek series having the same premise as another Gene Rodenberry work does invite comment though.
