saw the pilot when it aired on regular CBS a while back....loved it but just couldnt
add yet another pay channel just for one show.

fast forward a year later...wife gets a free trial of CBS all access so we jump in....about 5 or 6 eps in to Star Trek Discovery so far, and DAMN this is a really really good show. Helluva cast doing some great work here. if the quality keeps up, this has the potential to being my favorite Trek since the original.
(for the record, my faves so far have been the Original Series and a Deep Space 9)
