Now, THR states that Berg and Harberts are out at CBS All Access due to “leadership and operational issues.”
All outward signs pointed toward Berg and Harberts continuing to share the top job throughout Season 2 and perhaps even beyond.
Gretchen Berg and Aaron Harberts took over showrunning duties on Star Trek: Discovery following Bryan Fuller’s departure back in October 2016, and they were still promoting the show as recently as the end of May.
Money talks in showbiz, and CBS execs couldn’t have been happy about costs skyrocketing in the very first episode of the second season.
