Star Trek: Discovery, Season 1

The Burnham character (or the performance) drags this show down to an overthought mess! Every scene with Burnham has me changing the station within minutes. Star Trek Picard is a show graced with story lines based on the human experience. I'll probably cancel my All Access subscription, which I bought just to watch Discovery. Unfortunately I dislike the characters so much I don't care to watch it. The WEAKEST Trek series in their entire canon.

Star Trek: Discovery has been labeled a EPIC failure by Star Trek fans worldwide! Last year 2019 this series has been reguarded as NOT part of the star trek universe by the star trek creators after recieving millions and MILLIONS emails, letters, etc. Netflix bought Discovery after a few weeks sued to get their money back!!!!

Complete trash!!! 👎 This is not Trek this is modern garbage that does away with the positive message of Trek.

I particularly liked the way they they developed the Klingons. They were a whole lot more sinister than in previous series.

Stay away- it’s not really Star Trek

I've watched all the trek movies and TV series shows many times over the last 30 years and this just isn't Trek. I actually really tried to buy into it, but there were just too many inconsistencies and conflicts with existing canon. For those who say we should get over that and move on, I say then what's the point of calling it Trek? If they wanted to make something else, they should have called it something else. The point of having new Trek stories to watch is to continue the larger story in a way that fits and is consistent with the stories that have been told so far. This doesn't do that. Also, Trek has always been good about presenting current social issues in the context of good stories in ways that are thought provoking, but which are family friendly, unoffensive, and don't get in the way of the story. This show is none of that. Rather, many the episodes feel like the writers' had some foul language and controversial ideas they wanted to use and then to tried to figure out how to write a story to put them in. Crass, offensive, and no sense of tact whatsoever. Garbage.

This series should have some other name. This is NOT Star Trek. So disappointing. They are trying to rewrite everything. They are trying to discredit every other Star Trek series and change every storyline asking the way. Waste. Of. Time and money. Got 4 episodes into this, and couldn’t watch it any further.

Take it for what it is. It’s current Star Trek with non Star -Trek twists and turns. One review said Gene would turn over on his grave...well that’s a good thing cause the series needs to grow and this is a great one to get it going. Enjoy it. It’s well written and fun!

Can’t wait to see season 2 and the next adventure.

I don’t see how this show can be considered 'Star Trek' anything/. I started watching Star Trek as a teenager in the '60s and have watched all the series since then. I've watched season 1 and was disappointed. Even more so in season 2. It's a very bad soap opera that had promise through the first couple of episodes, but went down hill quickly. The writing is terrible. The main character is an over emotional tear factory that you end up hoping gets written out of the show. There are a lot of other good characters, but the writing and plot does not leverage them very well. My opinion - this is the worst of the entire Star Trek universe, including all of the movies as well as the cartoon TV shows.
