In regards to unmasking the Breen and removing the mystery, I think back to the words of Spock: “After a time, you may find that having is not so pleasing a thing after all as wanting.”
In this case, I completely disagree - I think they’ve come up with something pretty unique and compelling.

It could go either way. Someone around here postulated they were proto changlings. That’s pretty interesting. There’s other cool ways to spin it, and lame ways also of course. Like all this stuff, I think “Ok, now what?”. I hope what they come up with outweighs the fun mystery of the Breen.
One thing that always bugged me about the mystery of the Breen is that it shouldn’t actually be a mystery - Kira and Dukat take the refridgeration suits off a couple of Breen in “Indiscretion.”
Heh… Yea, I forgot about that. Trek isn’t always the best at consistency, or perfect logic. They could still pretend that never happened, or give some hand wavy explanation for why Kira and Dukat never mentioned what they look like.
It’s out there now. I guess we’ll see where it goes. I’m not upset. There’s been worse design decisions in the franchise :^)
Is this new season ok? It’s my least favorite star trek but I may as well finish it, I’m just waiting for it to be all done so I can binge it
Personally, I think it’s the best season so far, however the bar was not very high to start with. I wish Discovery started like this season, instead of the way it actually did.
Good to hear. Discovery felt like a cw version of a star wars show, more than star trek to me. But I really loved strange new worlds
I’ve only yelled at my screen once, so that’s a big improvement over previous seasons.
