    Oh, that would be confusing! I think I gave up before I got to the Discovery episode where he sees his future, but I had the benefit of seeing the TOS episodes and just extrapolated what happened from the flashbacks. If I hadn’t known that information it would have been a confusing first episode!

    I agree on TAS. The quality swings pretty wildly at times. I usually end up recommending it to people that liked TOS, with a few caveats!

    It’s disappointing that the SNW season went so fast, but at least we’re supposed to get 16 more episodes! I admit I was a little underwhelmed with the season overall, but it was still pretty fun. I’m thinking of putting up a season discussion post later on, so I’ll probably write more specifically there.

      The opening scene of Discovery SNW has Pike eating breakfast with Batel and telling her he cannot discuss what is bothering him because she does not have clearance.

      I enjoyed it. It was not as frantic as the previous season. it felt more TOS, which I enjoyed.

        Wasn’t that scene in the first SNW episode? Because I remember that one, I had been referring to the Discovery episode that they showed in the flashbacks for that episode. From what I’ve heard and what they said in SNW 1x10, he used the time crystals to see his accident.

          Yes, I meant SNW. And that is where she was confused (and me too apparently) about what was happening at the start of a brand new show.

            The way they set it up definitely assumed everyone had seen Discovery! It would have been nice if they had laid it out a little better.
