Are you going to watch "Star Trek: Discovery" tonight? ( CBS )

A lot of people are not happy that the pilot is on tonight and then you have to switch over to CBS All Access to continue watching it. I have not read any media reviews so going in blind...:)

I liked the show but I'm not sure that will be enough...

When I think about what Star Trek means to me, I think about a a sense of adventure; not that there can't be conflict but just fun. The overall theme of Star Trek: Discovery just seems to be war w/ the Klingons. To be fair, maybe the show will expand. When Babylon 5 first aired, it wasn't exactly must see TV but it morphed into something quite good. ( IMO )

Watched it and was kinda meh over it. Will give it a few more episodes to see if it fleshes out (most all Treks start slow)

Star Trek was always about asking thought provoking questions.
This '3rd gen' of Star Trek all action focused is grade A ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Easy enopuh to wait for re-runs a few years from now when CBS' pay service fails.

It wasn't that bad for a premiere. The first few episodes are only there to set the lore, and the 1st episode certainly did that.

Weirdly enough, I liked the Klingons more than I did Starfleet. It's mainly because the current crew (aside from Burnham) is primarily made up of sacrificial lambs, but still.

It's no TNG, but it at least achieves what it was set out to do.

Still not buying CBS All-Access. I'll wait for the eventual Netflix release.
