Okay admittedly I have stopped watching in season 3, but in my opinion what sums him up is 1) neurotic 2) ridiculously occupied with his emotions and personal life.
Completely unprofessional. Of course he gets by just fine because he is also the smartest guy in the universe and is irreplaceable to the operation of the ship, but if he were held to normal standards he would probably have lost his commission twice over.
Couldn’t agree more. Good point about Bones and Scotty, Stamets has that maverick energy. He’s not captain material, but it’d be incredibly boring if every character was
Yeah, my first thought was a clear lack of stoicism. Accepting the hard things and enduring forward fast because a Captain must. Everyone is depending on that. I can imagine this guy trying his hardest and then just breaks; blanks out, freezes up, is overwhelmed by what has happened and what is happening, instead of only thinking about what’s coming next, which is what Captain’s have to do and actually do.
The logical Captain performs well from remaining cool. The emotional Captain performs well by being selfless above all. He is clearly neither if something is personally impacting him.
To simplify, this guy would be good if he were more Vulcan.
From what I watched of Discovery, yes.
