The fact that even Michelle Yeoh couldn’t save it should tell you everything you need to know. It’s the most anti-Star Trek version of Star Trek ever. Section 31 should never have been anything more than a subplot in DS9.

It's so bad it never should have been released and those responsible should be fired.

There's a lot of that going around the last decade or so though.
99% of shows these days seem to be dire. Apart from Reacher I can't think of one show i have watched it years....

Yeah, they've pretty much ran all major franchises into the ground (Star Wars, Trek, Indy, Terminator, Doctor Who, etc), but there are great 'limited series' here and there, like Too Old to Die Young, Zero Zero Zero, Liaison, Griselda...

I have amazon prime so if a good show appears I'll watch. That's all i have. I cancelled my TV licence years ago... The Man in the High Castle was the last show I watched to date.
 
I don't trust 'them' at all anymore, it'd be easy to just say oh it's all being run by people who have no relation or understanding of the source material but then I see series I like also get ruined by their second season, I loved Invincible and Reacher but absolutely hate their second seasons.

Getting back on topic, Section 31 is more of the same Kurtzman trek, if you like the rest then maybe you'll find something to like here but for me it's the complete antithesis of Star trek.
 
I don’t know about that. The Agency, The Night Agent, the show with Stallone as a gangster, the Boys, Cobra Kai, Landman and lots of others are solid shows.
You're thinking of Tulsa King.

I don't deny there's still quality out there but the trend of the worst/most poorly written projects getting the biggest budgets for no apparent audience is very... unfortunate.

I think that’s generally more true for streaming movies than series. I rarely like movies that are made for streaming. If I changed streaming services every month or 2, I doubt I’d run out of things to watch. Even on Paramount +, I managed to fill most of the last 2 months with things to watch…2 months, because that’s the period I got it for 3 or 4/month.

If I ever watched all of the stuff on my netflix wish list, id probably be watching for months, if not a year, but even with just stuff I’ve recently added, it’d take me a month or 2 min. Hulu? No idea, bc I haven’t subbed in years, but I imagine it’d be several months. Disney is at about 3 months, since i haven’t subbed for about 3 years. I suspect apple is 2 months of content, if not 3 for me. Prime is probably a month or 2, but not sure.

For me the key is to not subscribe to every service. Find one, bleed it dry then move on….especially true for Disney, which IMO only has a bout 1 month of content/year (unless you watch movies on it, which I don’t).
 
Everything I heard about this is just bad. I really cannot believe they even put Academy Award Winner on the poster too :BS:

How the hell does this get a Steelbook?

I'm beginning to think they've got a replica of the bailout wheel of fortune from Southpark to decide what gets a steelbook but this thing is unlikely to sell well so I'm guessing they want slightly higher margins on each of those sales or maybe there's some contractual requirement. :confused:
