Star Trek reviews on Glassdoor

I strongly suspect Discovery was written and acted by people who have never seen actual shit or suffered trauma.
If they had, perhaps they would realise that people who've been through a lot are often the (seemingly) calmest or least emotional person in the room when shit hits the fan. It isn't their first rodeo. Or they're bitter and angry arseholes. Basically Jean Luc Picard or Liam Shaw are far more realistic portrayals of people who have gone through shit.
- ADHD helps.
  "I have experienced this moment 44 times in my head."
  "Oh this argument? I was up late three nights in a row running through every possible iteration."
  "Dude! Why were you so calm last night? That was a huge fire and you just sort of calmly grabbed your drink and bag and walked out the door. I saw it!
  "I have experienced that moment more times than you can possibly imagine."
- Written by, sure. But I distinctly remember that the characters cried regularly in that show after trauma.
  
  That is what annoys me the most with disco trek.
  These people are supposed to be trained professionals, serving in a military hierarchy and should, before they even graduate, be accustomed to the proper decorum and on duty-appropriate behavior for an officer.
  If they are constantly involved in personal drama and unrelated problems it just feels like watching a therapy session in space. It’s probably exacerbated by the modern season length of a dozen episodes at best, but in the older trek they struck a much more palatable balance of personal issue / character episodes and more plot centric stories.
  
  Can we just take this to its natural conclusion and have the entitled hippy arts majors come up with their interpretation of ww1 trench warfare? I took a lot of theater in school for fun (not allowed to double major) and saw all kinds of dumb takes but nothing on this level, I have no idea what bubble they're finding these writers in.
  
  They just cried a whole lotta times
- Discovery always struck me as a sci-fi show written by the same people who wrote Gilmore Girls, General Hospital, Greys Anatomy or any other dramatic series.
  It’s the over the top Drama Trek.

Sisko seems like the type of guy that you invite to a party and he spends the whole evening in your kitchen because the marinara that came with your mozzarella sticks “doesn’t have enough kick to it”
- Sisko can and should show up on SNW to help Pike get his jambalaya recipe just right, then vanish without any explanation other than that he needs to get back to his children and wife.
  
  Sisko insists it's important to the future, but really he just can't personally accept the existence of sub-standard jambalaya at any point in history.
- I suddenly have new aspirations, thank you!
- Kick should be in italics, then I could hear him saying that.

People are always getting Kirk and Picard backwards.
smdh
- While that post is technically correct, they're only bringing up stuff from their youths. Picard mellowed out a hell of a lot as he got older and is an extremely calm and diplomatic individual by the time he takes command of the Enterprise. Kirk cheating on the Kobayashi Maru was his first step in realizing that he could get away with almost anything if the results were good enough. These experiences do help them a lot later on, though; Picard's reckless and rebellious phase means that later on he was extremely good at keeping his cool in dangerous situations and assessing risk, while Kirk's intelligence and knowledge is why he's able to make his zany plan work even though he only came up with it five seconds ago.
  Picard is like if Indiana Jones was injured and had to stick to just teaching.
  Kirk is like if Velma Dinkley started solving mysteries by punching out the monster the first time they met.

How can you forget Christopher "beep-beep" Pike?
- Or Carol Freeman?
  Edit: it's a lot like Voyager's review, isn't it?
- Review: "Ran by a former male supermodel, doesnt know how to use the replicator and cooks all his food. Sometimes stops speaking in the middle of a sentence and starts beeping."
  
  They didn't have replicators by his time. I remember the TOS Enterprise had lots of pre-cooked meals on cargo, and preferring fresh stuff is perfectly reasonable.
- Review: "Didn't say much, was not very encouraging. Would only answer questions with a yes or no."
  
  Review so cold it could have been written by an andorian.

"a murder" implies only one
- Not if it's in regards to crows.
- Who besides Tuvix? Not fair to count Lon Suder’s crimes.
  
  Suspiciously the bodycams were off but i've heard the voyager crew was originally twice as large until she ran out of coffee the first time.
  
  She did murder the wife of her holographic boyfriend.

Can we talk about the kids that Janeway had with Paris, that they just abandoned on some distant planet?
- Say what now? Have I purged this episode from my mind?
  
  Dna altering future reptiles
  
  2x15 "Threshold"

Oh man discovery. It always seemed like it was written by that guy who was crying and screaming for people to leave Brittney alone.
- That was a guy?
  
  Huh....wasn't it?!

Sisko is the GOAT.
- if Sharn had called Sisko black skin he would have punched him so hard that Weyoun would have felt it.
- That basically sums it up.

Team Archer right here! ^^
- Hey, a new planet. Maybe I can lick it?

Nothing about the fancy espresso bar #3 offers to all employees (all employees but her excepted)?

So while not loving Discovery, it’s not so much the crying that got me, I just always feel like I’m watching therapy…innnn spaaaace. It just isn’t very interesting to me personally. I still found it enjoyable enough though.
- I could sort of deal with that. I just didn't like how focused it was on Michael Burnham and how she is the most important person in the universe. Star Trek is supposed to be an ensemble show, and I would dare say that it shouldn't really have a main character with the understanding that the captain gets more focus generally. It also felt like the writers didn't really like Star Trek that much and there was a lot of stuff that didn't make sense if you poked at it.
  
  I'd strongly argue against that last part considering Brian Fuller wrote for DS9 and was producer and writer for most of Voyager. Kurzman is also writer and producer for Picard and SNW.

Bring back short skirts in sci-fi!
Well bring back everywhere really.

I relate to Janeway the most. Like no coffee? Please cease talking until coffee... ...need coffee.
I mean you're 70000 light-years from Earth, it's ok to have some vices.
