Yeah, I don’t get this complaint. By the end of Discovery, my partner started referring to the episode wrap ups as “Care Bears moments” because of how saccharine they could get.
Disco and Picard both got pretty dark in their first seasons, but that’s a decade ago, and not appreciably darker than DS9 was known for.
Honestly nothing in Disco comes anywhere close to “Chain of Command”. Either they mean something else by “gritty” or they didn’t watch the actual shows and just watched youtube reviews.
dare I ask… gritty? If anything the new series (except Picard arguably) were a hyper hug fest compared to TOS, DS9 and Voyager
