"Star Trek: Discovery" is a series that holds promise but struggles to find a consistent tone. It veers from moments of genuine greatness to bouts of cheesy melodrama that border on feeling simplistic. While the emphasis on emotional conflict resolution adds depth to the characters, it sometimes feels forced and rushed, with little room for nuance or development. The show's tendency to prioritize moving quickly from one emotional conflict to the next can make it feel a bit disjointed and lacking in a cohesive narrative flow. Overall, "Star Trek: Discovery" shines when it embraces its more mature themes and tones down the overt dramatics, offering glimpses of the high-quality storytelling fans were hoping for.
