Haters gonna hate but this was incredible.

Star Trek has always been idealist. People complaining about that can't accept what Star Trek is.

Discover takes us on more of an inner journey, hence it is told through the lens of a main character, rather than mostly the captain as with previous Star Trek series.

It is by far the most moving and while it's true that it's feel differs to old Star Trek it is very meaningful.

On top of this, it looks great, and the acting is pretty good too, considering the format, which isn't one of absolute realism.

I think some people have a problem whereby they prescribe what Star Trek 'is' or 'should be' but that sort of retro thinking is exactly what Star Trek has always, ideologically, been about challenging.

This show is more Star Trek than ToS, and all the slimy dorks crying about SJWs would have done the same in 1966 when Roddenberry had the audacity to put a black woman on the bridge as an officer.

As others have said, this DEFINITELY could have been condensed to three 60 minute episodes.
