Star Trek: Discovery Review: The Tense, Dazzling New Trek Is Worth the Wait
Editor’s log: The following is both a recap of the Star Trek: Discovery series premiere (with spoilers) and a review of the series (based on the first three episodes). Seen the first episode? Permission to read on… granted.
Good things come to those who wait, Star Trek fans.
The first Trek TV series in a dozen years — Star Trek: Discovery — endured multiple delays, behind-the-scenes shuffles and a cloud of concern before finally debuting on CBS this Sunday. And as a lifelong Trek fan, I’m happy to report that the nail-bitingly tense premiere delivered a cracking good action story, eye-popping special effects and a number of gasp-worthy twists. (Not to mention a tantalizing cliffhanger expressly designed to send us scrambling to CBS All Access for the next episode. But we’ll get to that…)
We open with the redesigned Klingons, clad in violently spiked attire and scarier and more, well, alien than previous Trek versions, as a leader named T’Kuvma declares his intention to reunite the species’ 24 houses. Meanwhile, on a desert planet, we meet Captain Georgiou and First Officer Michael Burnham of the USSShenzou as they wander, seemingly lost. After Georgiou fires a weapon to open up a water well, a massive sandstorm rolls in, cutting off all communication… and threatening to trap them there for 89 years. Just in time, though, the Shenzou descends to pick them up, after Georgiou reveals she signaled them by walking in a path that’s the shape of a Starfleet insignia. That’ll work!
