    I think Discovery is a little different. They had way too many producers and writers on that show, all trying to get their little ideas in so when they moved onto a new project, they could get a sexy “By the creators of Star Trek” tagline on it. The situation Walter Mosley described when he left STD made the writer’s room sound like a viper pit.

      Plus the first two seasons basically had the producers get fired, and a new person brought in partway through.

      That would be bad for any show.
