I'm going to need Scott Grimes to do his Steve Smith voice sometime during the series.

I'll settle for a running joke where he screams like Steve when he's scared.

Probably not. Even if it's terrible it's gonna be on Netflix in every other country. They made enough selling the rights to fund two seasons.

We came up with a new kind of television writing. It's capable of disappointing things way up inside you.

Okay, this is deeply endearing. Using models makes it feel more Trek than the Trek we're getting.

lol, this thread has already devolved into goons falling over each other defending a show they haven't even seen yet. No, see, even though every reviewer says this sucks they just don't get that real sci-fi is supposed to be terrible!

I may be jumping the gun too, but there's a good chance poking sitcom cliches with fart jokes seems to be Seth's one success and departing from that likely means worse more than better. You only have to look at all the other middling crap he's attempted for evidence of that. 'Overly sanctimonous' showing up in reviews already is telling.

No you see I don't like the new Star Trek so this one has to be good.

I'm still at least a little interested to see this because it looks like the people involved want to make the kind of show I'd like to watch, as opposed to making halfassed appeals to my nostalgia for another brand in an attempt to get me to pay for something that looks aggressively mediocre

Regardless of quality this show will probably get canned after a few episodes and some timeslot shifting and STD will last for like two seasons because of the netflix money

I think Star Trek Discovery could end up being a good show.

And I'm eagerly anticipating seeing The Orville in an hour.

Either one of them could be garbage, and I'm not going to be shocked or devastated if either one is poo poo, but right now, without knowing or assuming anything, I'm happily anticipating both.

I like the incidental music. When it fades in and out has the same timing as TNG.
