Well, where to begin. The special effects are superb, eye candy. The story is true Star Trek cannon. The time line is a big mess. No way does this show seam or appear to before the original Star Trek. I am amazed the producers of the show purport that the time line is a before rather than a continuation of existing shows as well as movies. I am sure you will see this also. This does not take the enjoyability of the show away, in any way. What does take away from the show is the mechanics of Netflix and CBS. CBS is forcing anyone who wants to watch this show to sign up for their CBS ALL Access subscription, however, Netflix appears to be the lead producer of the Star Trek Discovery show. The leading credits of the show says, " A Netflix Original Series". The entire world, except for Canada, gets to see this show on Netflix. Canada sees the show on SPACE network. These two networks are double dipping to get the most money they can from the U.S. market. We are being fleeced all the time, anytime, the corporations can get away with it.
