Was the show doing well at all? I appreciate that I might just be in my own little bubble, but I don't know a single person that loves this show. Some people like it, but it's always a milquetoast endorsement, like "It's not bad" or "It seems like a good scifi series but it feels like Star Trek fan fiction", etc.

I'm surprised they didn't at least strongly suspect it was the end.

Especially when compared to Strange New Worlds, which is an, imo, amazing Star Trek series.

Available analytics have placed it at roughly the same level of demand as SNW - often slightly ahead, but close enough that I'd call it even.

That's an interesting metric. Apparently the vitriol for Discovery is mostly contained to the internet.

This comes as no shock at all.

Really depends on the site, the time of year, and the specific topic. The Trek subreddit, for instance, tended to be pro-DSC when a season was airing and anti-DSC between seasons. Even here, that recent thread on the DSC Klingon redesign was very in favor of DSC.
