    I refused to watch it because I couldn’t stand the main character tbh. For someone who was supposed to be in what is essentially the space navy, michael sure was an insubordinate POS. Maybe it got better but I couldn’t sit through more than 2 episodes.

    Honestly the disrespect for the command structure shown in a lot new trek stuff is why I have such a hard time watching it.

      Don’t get me wrong, I was furious with Michael almost the whole way through!

      I think they were trying to tell us the story of someone that struggled with starfleet principles but ends up finding their way and becoming a great captain, but she just pissed the fans off.

      She did get a bit better, I now give her a pass because she told her boyfriend that if starfleet told her to she would just kill him.

      She’s still the least suitable captain of any show though, in my opinion.
