I've been enjoying it, though I can't say it's my favorite Trek iteration. I'm here for the bevy of queer representation, and so is my partner. Some of the conceits are a little weird. In particular I really thought The Burn had a potential to be more interesting. Clearly Su'kal has some of the same mental influence over subspace that Wesley and The Traveler are shown to but his unbridled, unfocused grief caused a catastrophe of galactic, and possibly universal, proportions but we don't get that angle. Species 10C's arc also gets rushed and it's very unclear how we're going to get to the state where Discovery is floating in that nebula in Short Treks. I think 5 seasons is a good run and I am always looking forward to new Star Trek. I'll definitely be watching the final season as it comes out.
