It’s even more beautiful watching two women of color, black and Asian, navigate a realm that traditionally hasn’t included them. It honors sci-fi’s history while giving it a bold new future to stake claim in, making Star Trek essential television for the first time in decades.

BRAVO!! I love the Discovery seasons! It’s the sole reason I signed up for Paramount! It has continued imagining time, space, planets and new species. It’s amazing to consider a Federation of planets 950+ years into the future and continued scientific space exploration. I loved getting the more than plausible backstory on Spock! The Klingons started out a bit scary (didn’t like the change). I loved the original version of the Klingon Empire & its formidable warrior clans, but the show mended its error. I wish there were MORE SEASONS on the horizon. As an African American who fell in love with special effects as a child watching The Blob and who has watched everything Star Trek, I am ecstatic to see that imagined futuristic worlds and leaders include folks that look like me! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE SHOW. Congrats to the producers, directors, writers and actors/actresses, and entire cast and crew and all involved. PS: The show with Stacy Abram’s was hilarious—everybody’s a FAN! I was so (not in a bad way) jealous! She probably got so much of a kick at projecting herself as Earths President in the far flung future. Great fun! The show has expanded my ability to share the planet and my immediate space with those who do not look like me or who have different cultures from my own. In my mind, its Mission is Accomplished! Discovery went boldly into the future and made a significant impact and contribution to humanity and other species existence. BRAVO DISCOVERY! BRAVO!!
A lot of reviews with the word “woke”….. Star Trek the OS is woke, always has been, as that is how we should be, awake to the atrocities done by one race or group. Maybe this crop of “fans” like the pablum of Fox News which satiated their hunger for relevance in a world that is passing them by, thankfully.
Ultimately it’s the characters who shine this season, and that hold the show together. The ensemble has hit its groove in Season 3, and everyone gets time in the spotlight. ... The first four episodes feel sleeker and breezier; lighter, like Burnham.
It's comfortingly formulaic, in a way that feels like a return to the Star Trek of yore. Going where no TV show has ever gone before? Hardly. But it's good fun all the same.
Discovery feels like it’s adrift between the adventure-of-the-week format of its network-TV predecessors and the kind of complex serial favored by cable and streaming.
EDIT: I get the scores now. Season 2 is terrible. It's amazing how hellbent on destroying everything built up in seasons 1 it is, ripe with overacting, fake drama and excessively dumb writing. SEASONS 1 review:
I somehow missed this when it ran on TV and discovered it when I was waiting for Strange New World episodes.
It is hands down the best Star Trek I have ever watched. The first season contains more story development, more character growth and more new ideas than any of the prior series and movies.
The story development is breathtaking, with multiple points that would have painstakingly filled an entire season for other series logically and consistently flowing into each other without ever feeling overblown.
I've been bingeing it uncontrollably and would strongly suggest that course of action to anyone in similar shoes.
The writing, direction and acting are impeccable, and the visuals an score are flawless. I am afraid to start watching further seasons given that it's probably impossible to keep up this level of quality (and the average review scores I see here)
It was alright enough. I wouldn't watch it again and it won't stick with me. I've already forgotten most of it.
Lacks the magic of the earlier series. Which is honestly par for the course with all the New Trek.
J'ai fini la saison 3, beaucoup de scènes de pleurnichage émotionnel, surtout du personnage principal. C'est lourd ce pleurnichage, je me suis souvent surpris à regarder le plafond durant ces scènes. Dommage que Michelle Yeoh quitte à la saison 3, son personnage apportait un humour sarcastique très apprécié. Beaucoup de personnages sont bien développés et intéressants. Je trouve qu'il y a plein d'entorses et de choses illogiques mais que voulez-vous, c'est la T.V. Le visuel est fantastique.
Discovery is trash. But all of you calling star trek woke are absolutely insane. Star trek has from day one been about diversity. Its very core and essence is diversity, I’ll admit discovery is ham handed but like the entire concept of the show is diversity. yt people are truly a misery. an absolute misery.
