Every Star Trek Pilot Episode, Ranked From Worst To Best
He added, "This is light years removed from being a flawless TV show, but it already shows signs of being a great one".
Despite being outfitted with some interesting wrinkles, "Star Trek: Discovery" is an unspectacular addition to the existing fleet of "Trek"-branded series".
Star Trek: Discovery is now streaming on CBS All Access. Remarkable CEO Simon Powell said his company worked with CBS' assets of the ship to put together the visual effect.
So far there's been as much discussion about Star Trek: Discovery's distribution model as there has been about Star Trek: Discovery.
A North Korea nuclear test over the Pacific? Logical, terrifying
Seoul's Meteorological Administration assessed the quake as natural, while China called the earthquake a " suspected explosion ". Other experts said such an atmospheric nuclear test is unlikely for now due to its substantial technical and diplomatic risks.
Set in 2256, roughly a decade before the original "Star Trek" embarked on its five-year mission a half-century ago, the program breaks ground by building its plot both around an African-American woman, Michael Burnham ("The Walking Dead's" Sonequa Martin-Green), and a first officer, as opposed to a starship captain.

"Trek" has been off the air for a while, and the strategy of reviving the TV franchise via CBS All Access is not without risk.
It's a unique and daring intro. Jones is less successful as Saru, coming across as whiny and spineless, and the rest of the crew get little to do initially except respond to the two leads' orders. Future episodes of Star Trek: Discovery will be made available on Sunday nights after 8:30 p.m. ET. Fuller's ambitious pitch for Discovery-an allegorical anthology that would span Trek's different eras, pulling in talent like Edgar Wright along the way-was reportedly scrapped by CBS in favor of something decidedly more pedestrian: a darker prequel to the original Star Trek. Good to see him back, even if it is weird that he never told Spock he had a foster sister...
New episodes of Star Trek: Discovery stream Sundays at 8:30/7:30c exclusively on CBS All Access.
In fact, T'Kuvma is one of the best things about these episodes, as we learn that his desire to fight the Federation comes from a wish to maintain the purity of the Klingon way.
