I almost never stop watching a series midway but this is just too painful to continue. It's everything wrong with Hollywood in our times.
To be fair I think the premise is pretty good and Alan Tudyk is a talented actor. He's doing his "schtick" admirably and delivers the alien humor well. It's the absolute 4th wave feminism that is intolerable. But the preaching of the new woke religion is too much.
It was evident from midway thru last season that this is where it was going but after S2E3 the writers turned it into talking points from a women's study syllabus and it's so forced. Women's pay gap? check Women being objectified? check Mansplaining? Check. Bright pink hair? Check. Unattractive fat women? Check and check and check. Stupid, spineless, buffoonish men? Oh yea. It's so bad they even have the kids joining in on the act. Can't let those little ones just be kids, we have to make sure to get em while they're young.
Don't waste your time.
This isn't Black Mirror.
I was skeptical after reading the other comments, but it is indeed, the worst season of the show and by far.
Other than the first episode, rest of them didn't feel like "Black Mirror". Episode 3 was very good story and little bit of the mood. Rest of the episodes are barely passable.
Hurrah! At last a proper Star Trek series! This is everything the absolutely awful Discovery was not. Looking forward to the coming episodes!
Season 6 and I'm still watching this crap!! Why?? I have no idea, it's stupid and pointless. 4/10
Worst of all! Don't bother watching...
So BM went in a totally new direction. Too bad. Episode 1 was the best. The rest seem to have been written by AI. Predictable and not engaging at all. Dark (badly lit). Boring. What gives?
You want some good fantasy/horror? Try African Folktales. Much better imo.
Cheers!
Please let this have been a mini-series and be done with it. After watching this season, it is clear this show was not necessary. Please Disney, don’t make a season two.
I loved the first two seasons and was really looking forward the the 3rd. But there's just one thing that really started to annoy me, anything and everything the Robinson do gets praised by other characters. The Robinson are always right. They're the smartest people around. Even in emergency situations where time is running out, npc's take time to give a detailed compliment on how amazing that thing a Robinson has done just now is. While I'm sitting here thinking, if that dumbass just stayed put, or didn't press that button, people wouldn't be in this mess. It's like their shit is made of gold and they can do nothing wrong. It got to a point where I'm sick of hearing the name Robinson. It's a shame cause I loved this series.
Worst season of the show. It basically destroyed the entire purpose and spirit of the series by trying to inject Stargate plotlines that goes nowhere, terrible character plots and cringe dialogue, and overused drama that make every character look like a clown. Don't waste your time in this season wanting to know the ending.
quite possibly the most brainless series currently on TV. their trick is to cover the same storylines with the same core group of actors. then once that's done they do the same thing again but in a different place. its bad, it's always been bad and i imagine it always will be bad. its too dumb to be called escapism and just popular enough to avoid getting cancelled. if you like soap-operas that require you to switch your brain off then this is the show for you. you have been warned.
