The Orville: About a Girl (2017)
What Star Trek should be
Exactly what the new Star Trek should be. Very impressed by the Orville so far, tuned in for light comedy and got much more. Interesting characters and different cultures as well as ethical conundrums - good amount of humour and a relatable crew who you instantly like and take an interest in.
Star Trek: Discovery: Magic to Make the Sanest Man Go Mad (2017)
Best so far
So far I haven't enjoyed Dis much at all, most of them I've rated 1 or 2 stars as Trek and 4 or 5 as general Sci-Fi (some worse) This episode felt like a Star Trek episode at least, the new security chief (Ash something) seems like he could be an interesting character and it was slightly more than the Burnham show. Its a story that's been done more than once in Star Trek but repetition in a franchise is to be expected, especially in early seasons.
Hopefully this will be a turning point and we'll see an improvement in the story telling before the mid season break.
Star Trek: Discovery: Context Is for Kings (2017)
Worst Star Trek ever
After a disappointing start I was hoping things would pick up with the first regular episode. Sadly it got worse, at least the previous was good sci-fi if bad Star Trek. This was terrible on both counts. As a life long Trek fan I'll force my self to watch the first season, but I have little hope of it improving. The episode lacked direction, was predictable and boring while moving entirely away from what Star Trek is about.
