I cancelled my month-long free pass to CBS All Access after week three or four. Discovery isn't worth paying for. The effects are good, and there are some decent actors in it, but it isn't good sci-fi, and it surely isn't good Trek.
Can the next Star Trek NOT be a prequel or a reboot? Please? I've said before that it is so much easier to write an origin story than to come up with an original idea that advances the "universe." Discovery fails even as an origin story, since -- unlike Star Trek: Enterprise -- there are no ties to what is to come. We now have not one but two different Kirks, Spocks, and McCoys, and Discovery has nothing to do with the build-up to either of them. I'd have preferred Axanar. -- Kevin M.
