Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

You know, the only thing that bugged me about Discovery and Picard to an extent....They always have to pause and talk about their feelings with/about someone/something while the whole world is blowing up around them and people are dying.....Can we have a little urgency please?!

I think that is because the seasons are too long. I like all the new series, but both seasons of Picard could have been done in half the episodes and discovery season 4 could have been 3-4 tightly packed episodes. I think the story arcs are overall good, just too much filler. So the characters have too much time to talk..

IMO Picard season 2 was pretty great. I loved all the backstory we got from Picard's childhood and the ending of the season was just perfect. Maybe 3 episodes here where nothing happened and we can almost just skip those.

SNW so far is very good. Episode 1 was great, IMO. Episode 2 wasn't as good. I like Uhura and the great character development we had with her....but the "solution" to the episode was just dumb luck and a little arbitrary. I don't like that. But still a pretty good episode.

The Chibnall/Whitaker seasons of Doctor Who had lots of arbitrary solutions, too. That really bugs me.
