I liked Abrams movies. They were not the typical Trek, but they called it reboot and so I was fine with it. New approach, why not.
But calling this prime universe annoys me hard. I was so distracted by the timeline errors, I wasn't able to follow the story. Had to watch it three times to get it.
Star Trek is a story spanning 3 (or more, depending on how you count) centuries. And Discovery doesn't fit in.
Without Sarek, the beeping sounds, the Klingon language, and the insignia, I wouldn't have guessed this is supposed to be Star Trek.
I'm highly prejudiced because of the design errors. Maybe that's the reason why I immediatly lost interest in the characters. Or they just are boring, I don't know.
I saw the cliffhanger, but I didn't watch episode two. I just didn't care.
If CBS had admitted it's a reboot or they just hadn't called it Trek, maybe I would've liked it.
Seems like I'll stick to the remaining STC episodes and the Orville ;-)
