Finally saw Star Trek: Discovery

[GreenPartyVoter]

I adore all things Trek, and have been pretty accepting of changes made in the various iterations. But the Klingons are a bridge too far for me. I am so fond of Worf and his compatriots. The new Klingons are awesome as aliens, but not as Klingon aliens.

Otherwise, I am starting to get into the series. I am glad, though, that I also have "The Orville" around to watch. It has a pretty classic Trek flavor of its own.

1. I cannot seem to connect to these Klingons...

Character development...is poor..

[GreenPartyVoter]

2. Yes, so far they are thumbnail sketches which look

paltry against the legacy of the Worf Klingons. I am hoping to see them developed further.

I always make allowances for first seasons of new series. TNG season 1 feels very... stilted... compared to later seasons when the actors and characters began to settle in.

11. It indeed has great potential...

I too am giving a wide birth here...

3. What service are you using to watch it?

The boss isn’t happy about letting my subscribe to CBS’s service just for one show.

[QED]

4. It was too pricey for me.

As much as I love Star Trek I just won't fork over that much $.

6. Using CBS All access. I had a timer set on Dish, or so

I thought, but it only recorded one partial episode.

But I have an Amazon fire stick, so am streaming over it.

10. same here

I can't really justify springing for All Access just to watch this one show.

That said, I realize this is where TV is going in the future, I just don't have to like it

[Fla Dem]

5. Does CBS All Access release all the episodes at once, like Netflix?

So we could just subscribe for a month, binge watch and then drop the subscription until the next season is released?

[GreenPartyVoter]

7. They seem to all be there so far. Am 6 episodes in, I think.

[rogue emissary]

8. Nope.

CBS AA releases them once a week on Sunday. The first season was separated into Vol 1 and Vol 2 which will consist of another five or six more episodes. Vol 2 starts airing sometimes in January.

[NewJeffCT]

9. From what I understand

they release one episode per week, so they probably have released several by now.

[FarPoint]

12. No..

Not in the US anyway... Week to week...On mid season break now.

13. I've Got The Half Season on Thumb Drive

Haven't watched yet.

[earthshine]

14. How does one do that? Thx. nt

15. Don't Know

Guy at work handed it me & told me the episodes were on there.
Has to be a hellacious amount of memory on that little thing!
