    The sets and panoramas look neat … but it looks and sounds a lot like the personal drama, soap opera, high school politics of Discovery

    TOS, TNG, DS9, VOY all had the common theme that they wanted to tackle epic storylines involving civilizations, grand politics, war, social problems, societal issues and held a mirror to our current civilization.

    These modern Trek iterations seem to be just basic soap opera dramas surrounding individual characters, which can be interesting but it seems to fly in the Roddenberry tradition of using the medium to ask important questions about our current society.
