This. I just finished ep. 2 and about to jump on 3. This shyt is crack. In a way I’m glad the female captain died because her and Burnham going to the Klingon ship was ridiculous as if no other male could’ve gone but it was a way to kill off the captain honorably and push this story line alone. captain was irrational as fukk (along with the admiral) but you can help but see Burnham’s character as a female Kirk from the rebooted movies (rebel without a cause with a reputation that preceded them)

The visuals on his show are good (even the strang looking Klingons) and it deserves to be on a network instead of a streaming service (unless it was Netflix in the US). Why spend $8 mil per episode (which is a lot of fukkin $) and not try to get some of it back via network TV. The didnt do that to the new Sheldon show, so why do it to a sci-fi show that debuted damn near the same week.

You couldn't do a show like this unless it was on a streaming service or premium channel like HBO or Showtime. Network TV budgets are real small. I'd guess this show has a bigger budget than The Walking Dead, and if they put it on network TV there'd be no reason to put it on All Access. Ideally, I wish this was on Netflix because All Access is TRASH.

All access has a couple good flicks on it tho. And for someone who loves tv there’s enough history on it to give me something else when Trek isn’t on. That said I’m still cancelling once the first half of the season is over.

summary: best thing happened to star trek since deep space nine, he didn't like voyager, I did, he liked beyond, i didn't, the first two episodes are better than the third but the third has some interesting ideas

Its growing on me but has alot of non star trek elements I feel like they keep trying to make trek star wars like over the last decade. Still dont like the klingons though.

If you want more militaristic trek you probably should start with ds9 althouhg it takes a few seasons for that aspect to really pop off and you might like star trek II the wrath of khan and star trek first contact
