    Im not to excited about it. I'm a Star Trek fan, but im not going to pay for CBS online to watch this. Saw the Trailer, it is supposed to be 10 years before Kirk, and TOS but the technology looks too far advanced. And the klingons, I'm not sure what those were, but they aren't Klingons

    I want it free. There are many other choices. I'm very selective about my television these days.

    A million and one fucking cop shows and they want to charge us for our Sci-Fi....

    They don't want to depict a World where we get past all of this bullshit.

    Anyone been watching this?

    Season 2 finale was last night.

    Really really good. They really tied it in to the original series well.

    2nd season has been fantastic. I'm only on episode 11, but absolutely love it. Much better story arc than the 1st season.

    I paid. It's the 2nd best Star Trek next to TNG.

    I LOVE IT.

    The fake love between MB and the part Klingon guy isn't sellable and doesn't seem real. My only gripe with the series.

    Yeah when they went to the Terran universe that was kind of annoying.

    Totally agree. I'm glad they are mostly ignoring that aside from Captain Georgiou still there. This season is really great storytelling though.

    The casting of the guy from Hell on Wheels as Capt Pike was a home run! I really want CBS to spin that off into a new show.
