    Have to admit I’m curious what would drive someone to downvote you for thanking someone for the links.

      I wish Lemmy had a way to distinguish between disliking the news and shooting the messenger.

    These are just the ones that I’ve seen - if you happen across any others, feel free to share them.

  Mostly strong-to-glowing reviews. Comic Book Club, Looper, Radio Times, and TV Guide are the most negative (or at least least positive). Comic Book Club (which I’d never heard of before) is the only one I’ve seen that seems to hate it. ComicBook.com, ScreenRant, and TV Line give middling reviews.

    I’ve been editing the above comment to include more as I’ve been finding them.

    There are several YouTube reviews too (in addition to the TrekCulture video above and the Jessie Gender one linked elsewhere), mostly from people who at a glance don’t seem like they’ve seen it or who have been pre-hating it for months (Dave Cullen, Critical Drinker, and downhill from there.)

    Just to not exclude them entirely, here’s one from a guy I’m not familiar with who didn’t like it much but at least doesn’t seem to broadly hate modern Star Trek:

    www.youtube.com/watch?v=jssKA2oz3Lk (Nater Tot)

    But for most of the channels that are just screaming blind outrage in their thumbnails, I’ve been blocking them as I spot them, so I’ll leave that as an exercise to someone else should they care to round them up for some reason.

      Yeah, good call - I think it should be self-evident that links to the online hate machine are not allowed here. We all know the usual suspects, and they’re generally not hard to spot.

    Yeah, yeah, they said great things about Discovery, too. And we all know how that train wreck turned out.

      It was pretty good in the end.
      All the complaints revolved around having a different narrative structure. But there’s nothing actually bad about that.
