How would you rate it?

The ship has Chinese name, the Captain is Chinese and XO is a Chinese transgender.

Hmmm, Chinese? Borrowed from Firefly?

Nothing was as bad as space hippies!

“The Children Shall Lead” is next! An episode with Melvin Belli! What were they thinking?

Saw this one earlier today, `Whom the Gods Wish to Destroy' Image and video hosting by TinyPic James Tiberius got dragged through a knothole in that episode. (The guy with antlers cracks me up.)

PS Wifey said, “Did Antler boy get that house coat from Phyllis Diller?” She cracks me up too.

Maybe the montage confused him with the other main character. But David Soul was in that episode. You can Google it. It’s even on his IMDb profile. He plays the guy with the chick who were spying on Chekov and the blonde, and then started making out after observing them.

It’s crap! Produced by a Trump hating lunatic.

The funny thing is that George Lucas probably stole his cantina characters from that episode

The first two episodes were okay, but overloaded with Klingons. Too much. I would not say they laid a good base for the seies/story. They were sort of disjointed.

Episode 3 was really good, makes me want to see more. Lots of layers to peel back.

This fan film should have been the next Trek series:

Prelude to Axanar

I only watched out of curiosity to see Michelle Yeoh. Then I thought I would give it a chance UNTIL I saw the entire cast “took a knee”. Screw ‘em.

IF they bring in obvious gay crap I will be done with it. The ship and captain with the Chinese names are not in episode 3.

Still, Spock's Brain did have this classic line of dialogue:

"Brain and brain!! What is 'brain'?!" lol

The hippie episode stands alone as the worst. The one with Abe was bad but the space hippies has a place in history.

Haven't seen it. Probably won't unless the reviews are very positive. Star Trek has always been hit and miss, with more miss than hit, and that trend grew as the various series came and went.

The only science fiction series I'm really looking forward to currently is season 2 of 'Westworld'.

You can watch it for free at the following link BUT USE an ad blocker

I watched the pilot and the second episode so far. It is okay, but not worth paying for.
