Captain Burnham and the U.S.S. Discovery are sent to retrieve a mysterious 800-year-old Romulan vessel; until the artifact hidden inside is stolen, leading to an epic chase. Meanwhile, Saru is offered the position of a lifetime, and Tilly’s efforts to help pull her into a tangled web of secrecy.
Aside from stamets, this show has the least likeable principal cast of a star trek show I’ve seen. Burnham is so blegh. And Tilly is annoying as hell imo.
I think Tilly was a very well written character, especially in the beginning. Not much experience, friendly but awkward. Very human unlike the big heroic captains. But I agree, Burnham is the most unlikeable main character in Star Trek. I also find Georgeou and Booker annoying and Saru was cool in the beginning (especially when there was still a wow factor for the visual work) but he also wasn’t faring too well lately. Most of the rest of the cast is okay at least and Jason Isaacs and Anson Mount were highlights in seasons 1 and 2 respectively.
That’s funny. I feel the same way, except that it’s Tilly that I care about and no one else.
