I had a similar experience with Disco. Watched the first season, nearly dropped it at the end, but the twist was big enough to catch my interest, quit part way into season 2.
I love that it has so many more explicitly queer people but the departure in show structure and form really clanged with me. Ugh and the Klingon pseudo sexual surgery stuff was so off-putting. I think it was Saru
DISCO S02E04 spoiler
actually being a predator speciesthat finally bucked me off.
I didn't bother with Section 31, but dang I wish we got a show with Captain Georgiou instead of the evil house pet emperor character...
SFA might get better in time, but the first episode didn't really grab me and had me asking so many questions I didn't wanna look further into it. Plus now with Paramount being owned by right-wing monsters, I don't think I'll be giving them any money.
