Excellent first episode.
Excellent Star Trek series.
A few quibbles...Anson Carter is a bit too non chalant as Capt Pike. The fact that to fully understand the story you have to have watched another series is a bad choice.
Excellent easter eggs for the shows I am familiar with. I have not watched Discovery or Picard the others, yes including Prodigy which I do not know if it's canon or not.
Watch it, you'll dig it.
Thursdays on Paramount+ first run.

So, should I finish Discovery before I start this?

Only up to the point where there is a crossover involving Anson Carter as Capt Pike.

Teri and I just fiished eps 2 and 3.
Uhuru was solid. Her timidly questioning her place because she was a cadet got old.
Pike being saddled with a number one and chief medical officer who where both shite star fleet material being exposed in the same episode was bad. Two solid shows of folks showing more than their share of weakness, not fun but now I know what to expect from the rest of the series.
Their point will be to show the utter and total fallibility of the crew and how the bad news bears in space can see it through and be worthy of another season. Yeah boy!!

Teri and I binged the rest of season 1 last night.
Fortunately the series writing got better as the season went along.
Excellent job of giving many of the primary cast plenty of face time. I was disappointed with the cast member they choose to move away from and potentially a second as well.
We'll be back next season.
