Re: Star Trek: Discovery (2017)
yup, I am already wishing they had given it a full season run because it is going to kill me when the 13 eps are up. When they renew it for season 2 I hope they look at the other Star Trek series and give it at least 20 episodes. There is so much universe to explore and story to tell.

Re: Star Trek: Discovery (2017)
13 ?
There are 15 this season (split as 9 before xmas, and 6 in the new year).
Its already been renewed for season 2, although I cannot find any details of how many episodes for (likely 22).

Re: Star Trek: Discovery (2017)
Not sure if I like this or not I was 50/50 over the first 2 as they looked like they started out like a youtube fan made movie. ep3 was pretty good then it slipped a bit with ep4 so hoping it's going to get better

Re: Star Trek: Discovery (2017)
Slipped a bit how ?
The only thing that bothers me atm is that they seem to have a "blink" drive, yet this is supposed to be 10 years before TOS ..... So how come no other star trek had this technology ? (Voyger would have been a very short series with this tech !).

Re: Star Trek: Discovery (2017)
Maybe a decision is eventually made not to use it on other ships for moral reasons, they are having to torture a creature to use it after all.

lol yeah, they must have thought of that and something will obviously happen. It seems like the only way it can operate is with them putting that animal through pain so maybe its species is in limited numbers. More importantly, Star Fleet's principles will come into play regarding slavery and torture etc and a red line will have to be established with regards to how far they are prepared to go to win the war or advance technology. I am hoping to see Michael put her foot down in the next ep and do something about it.

Re: Star Trek: Discovery (2017)
I thought episode 4 was great and felt a lot more Star trek like.
I am sure that the experimental drive is exactly that and will not be used in future due to it being rather unsafe or the moral reasons for enslaving a possibly sentient creature.
Glad they are bringing the science aspect into it as that is part of what I enjoy about Trek.

Re: Star Trek: Discovery (2017)
There won't be much cast left if they keep killing them off this quick lol.
It's a different kind of star trek from the likes of TNG for me it's going to take a little getting used to
