I enjoyed the first two episodes so far, but I agree with some of the comments here - I'm scared the woke crap ruining this show. Star Trek was always a show of diversity, but not in a 'self-congratulatory / let's shove woke in everyone's face' kind of way. I will watch this series with caution.

Captain Pike and his chick/binary brigade. One percent men allowed on the ship. The perfect future for the current woke shit.

Excellent show! It reminds me of the golden age of sci-fi - when exploration still matters.

I enjoyed the first 5-6 episodes but the last few (including ep8) are shit

Glad to see tradTrek (traditional Trek) is back! I miss this format and style of Star Trek.

Nothing wrong with the other nuTrek, they're all great on their own, but as someone who grew up watching Star Trek, the style of TOS, TNG, DS9, VOY, and ENT, have grown on me. It's more about the issues we are facing today, in real life, as well as meaningful life realizations. Picard is like that but it is more about Jean-Luc. Discovery is like that but it is more about the conflict and the characters.

But tradTrek is different. The approach is to let the audience relate and think of the world around them.

Best of all, finally, we have a Captain Pike canon series! We seriously lack canon materials around Pike and his time with the Enterprise and it has been requested since the 90s. Finally! Let me say that again, FINALLY!

I'm so excited: it's a very promising pilot, it's the classic Roddenberry's line and it's so cool again. It's a new hope to forget the crappy Discovery/Picard shows. I think I've been waiting for this for a few decades.

Cringey and boring dialogue, terrible acting. Visually great but the story is average at best. If you want to watch a good "Star Trek" type show then go watch The Orville. Star Trek New Worlds is marginally better than other recent Star Trek tragedies but that's not saying much.

This is a pretty good "back to the original days" Star Trek. More episodic with a long story arc, but being episodic was what got everyone into Star Trek in the first place.

Someone said that this is "woke garbage", and I'm quite often the first to point that out when I see it but I didn't get that so far. However, Paramount has woke the hell out of Discovery and got about half as woke on Picard so I wouldn't be surprised if this went that route. They have, as they do, made one character quite obviously and somewhat over-the-top gay so I'm confident it'll be a central part of the story very soon and hopefully it's more in passing than becoming a consuming plot line like they do in most other shows.

Fantastic. well worth your time.

rubbish.. singing rocks..? how has this 80% ?

as soon as pike said 'i love this job' i should've known my time was about to be wasted

Producer/Creator: Let's see how many diversities we can get on the show and keep white people to a minimum - 2 should do it - they'll be the obligatory straight people too. And let's make sure all the aliens are black. Yeah, this is going to be the best diverse show EVER!
Plot? No - that doesn't matter as much, silly. People will watch anyway and get all warm and fuzzy.

BTW: Why would a Vulcan get married? It's completely illogical since god/religion created marriage and they don't believe in god, they believe in evolution.

5/10

I have enjoyed watching the two aired episodes more than the entire seasons of Discovery & Picard combined. "Hope for the best, prepare for the worst" as the saying goes, but I'm extremely optimistic about SNW.

debuts May 5/2022 according to Trek Roundtable

so far so good hopefully they won't ruin it like they did discovery

2 episodes in. I don't want to jinx it, but this looks like a proper Star Trek show. It's about time!

This has been a long time coming...

[spoiler] Finally we get the Classic Old School Star Trek.... Yeah it's got added *Woke* but then it's 2022... But yeah it's way better than Picard... An better than Discovery...

Finally a show worth waiting for.... [/spoiler]

Woke trash virtue signaling superimposed onto classic Star Trek knock off. Although the original series certainly posed some political questions. It was always about entertainment and never pushed a specific and in this case far left agenda. Another disappointment to add to Picard and Discovery. These leftist writers are destroying a brand that took decades to build.

More slop out of the minds of Klutzman and company. Another crew of people with terrible pasts that will continuously haunt them each episode.
