Is it the Arrival episode?Almost the entirety of this week's episode was about trying to figure out how to talk to bizarre aliens and it was the most intensely Star Trek thing I've seen in forever. Man, Disco friggin' rules.
I just think that's how fans and people are, for better or worse. Very reactionary, default conservative mindset, suspicious of change, etc. It takes conscious thought fight against our human nature, and most people don't approach their entertainment in that manner.Yeah, I really respect how it took big swings. I was pretty meh on season one but the rise of NuTrek as a whole helped take the pressure off of Discovery and let it do its own thing. I imagine if it weren’t the only Trek show at the time I would have been kinder to it.
I'd still say try to give season 2 a shot, since it is so different tonally from season 1. I mean, even season 1 is all over the map because of the behind-the-scenes changes. If you get to the season finale, then you'll be like "I have to see where this goes next".I wrote this show off after season 1 because stylistically I felt it was pretty repelling (sooo many dutch angles my god) and in general I didn't care much for the plot of the season either. I don't know if I feel like giving it another chance to keep watching past that even knowing about the changes it goes through...
Who dies immediately! Oh well.But more importantly we finally see a new Soong android not played by Brent Spiner!
It's just a pretty common type of image that's all. Basically you just make concentric circles, then connect the circles with random perpendicular lines, and erase some of the circles edges between the lines. The Cardassian visual motifs for their computers used to have junk like that in the past, among lots of other stuff.I swear the symbol in the diary that's circles with some squiggly lines dividing them looks super familiar
