The first episode was on free TV, so I saw it this morning. I have Dish Network which holds all of the network primetime shows in its cue for about a week. I guess CW doesn't count as a network because it kept skipping my recordings of Supergirl (conflict with another show, probably) and the Primetime folder never had it.

So yeah, Discovery. Not a fan. Not enticed to watch the next one.

[EDIT: I guess I only saw the first of 2 episodes that came out last night. Part 2 was only on the streaming service.]

I could go over the multitude of surface level errors but it comes down more to one big one: the main character is not likeable. She's got a chip on her shoulder like Pine's Kirk in the 2009 movie who acted douchey throughout the movie. This lady has supposedly been serving for at least 7 years but has no respect for chain of command. Since when did officers become so mouthy towards their COs? I'd say it was just a TV thing but TV used to get it right. Anyway at the end she assults her captain and commits treason and I don't know if the show wants us to be on her side or not. She was arguably right in what she was saying but she went about it all wrong, and based on the timing it wouldn't have made any difference anyway so she probably threw her career away for nothing. Except this the millennial version so they'll probably make her Captain next week. She was raised by Vulcans but she's emotional and kind of petty.

How come Michelle Yeoh has a TOS looking phaser but also has a holographic communicator that was only prototyped on DS9? What timeline is this anyway? LOL.
