    The cursing

    It is a single curse word.

    the attitudes

    Way too vague and I’m not sure what you mean

    “Hollywood dark mode”

    Which is a visual and stylistic choice to represent something specific in the story that changes as the story changes. Season 2 onwards is incredibly bright.

    the crass timing

    Again, incredibly vague and I have no idea what you mean

    oh god the Klingons… they look like emo versions of Nosferatu

    Which are overridden for the second season where they look way closer to normal.

    See this is stuff that the video is explicitly talking about. A lot of complaints made about Discovery that don’t seem to be based on anything. The Klingon look I get and the visual dark look of the show I disagree with but get. Everything else though? I’m just not sure where it’s coming from.

      It is a single curse word.

      And we’ve had ‘fuck’ used in Picard more than once. I don’t remember swearing in SNW, but I wouldn’t be shocked to hear it.

      I mean we didn’t have swearing in TOS or 80s/90s/00s Trek because it was on broadcast TV. This should just be a duh thing.

        There is an ep of Voyager where you can clearly see B’Elanna Torres mouthing “fuck!” when she gets caught doing something she ain’t supposed ta. Always loved that for her.
