Star Trek: Discovery - Season Two [Blu-ray]

“Star Trek: Discovery” - season 2 brings back the same great level of acting, effects, & stories introduced in season 1. A little disappointed that the creators/ writers have decided to remake some of the episodes from the “Star Trek” Universe but these re-writes aren’t bad at all, as they give additional ‘fleshing out’ of established crew & situations in the “Star Trek” canon. My only real complaint is that the series is currently run on an exclusive steaming service. Good thing they decided to put the series on Blu-Ray. Anxiously awaiting the BR release of season 3. Well worth the watching!

I'm a long time Star Trek fan (I started by watching original broadcasts of TOS as a kid) and have enjoyed all the broadcast shows (TOS, TAS, TNG, DS9, Enterprise). My biggest initial gripe was that CBS moved new shows from broadcast to streaming and made it expensive (for my tastes). My first opportunity to watch Discovery was buying BluRay sets (though Season 1 has been broadcast lately) but even those are more expensive than I like (and than the other shows). I bought/watched Season 1 last year and was disappointed (I wasn't impressed with things like using fungus for travel or the way Klingons were treated). Season 2, however, is much better. (There're still references to those S1 things, but the S2 focus is elsewhere.) In particular, the bad guy from S2 comes from (non-Kelvin-timeline) novels in the Trek-verse (with Dr. Bashir joining Section 31--to take it down from the inside--and discovering Control and working to defeat it). I enjoyed those books and like it when things get tied together nicely (unlike Disney totally trashing hundreds of novels to do their new story lines). Bonus Features for this set: some episodes have deleted scenes; one or two have commentary (though I've not listened); there are two Star Trek Short Treks (related to S2 episodes); and there are two or three hours of behind-the-scenes (technical) features.

First, I got this on sale during Black Friday. It was a great price. Second, I enjoyed the first season of Star Trek Discovery and this season expands on the earlier storylines. I also enjoyed the appearance of classic Star Trek characters Captain Pike and Spock. An engaging season of space travel and exploration with a stunning conclusion.

My wife and I are both lifetime Star Trek fans - we grew up on the original series with Kirk and the crew and have eagerly consumed every iteration since. We love Discovery, now, too, but it definitely diverges from the "classic" Star Trek adventure we were expecting. That is thanks in part to it being pay-to-watch and not regular broadcast TV, which allows CBS to go a little darker and grittier than the traditional Trek of my childhood. That isn't a bad thing - we both love seeing the darker side of Star Trek - but if you're looking for the light tones most of the other series' carried in many episodes, it will catch you off guard. Go in with an open mind - something Star Trek has always been a proponent of - and you're in for a treat.

It’s so great to see a female POC in a leading sci-fi role! Especially one that’s so well-known as Star Trek! I’m excited to watch this new season of Star Trek Discovery. This has been a great driving force in the resurfacing of the Star Trek brand for the late 2010s/20s and the cast of characters is wonderful.

Season 2 of Discovery was a good continuation from Season 1, with a goodly number of twists and turns in the plot. We are left with a humongous cliffhanger that will lead us into Season 3. Excellent series that is really gaining traction.

Have been a Star Trek fan since the original series and I must say this show has tremendous potential for a long run. It only airs on the CBS app so I have to wait for the DVD, worth the wait.

Hav Have series one. Had to get the second. A must for any star trek fan. Very enjoyable to watch.
