   I just finished watching the first two seasons of Star Trek DIscovery on DVD   
   from Netflix.   
      
   It is NOT Gene Roddenberry's Trek!  I do not think that he would have approved   
   of this series.  First of all for the language.  In all of Trek I only remember   
   one out and out cuss when the ship was crashing into the planet Data said "Oh   
   Shit!"  This one has out and out swearing including the "F" word.  Also open   
   gay kissing.   The suggestion of "gaity" is OK but to have two male or female   
   character kiss on screen is a no-no.  Also there were aliens in this series   
   that were never seen again in all of Trek.  The whole Klingon war thing in the   
   first season was wrong.  This Trek was supposed to be a bridge between   
   Enterprise with Archer and TOS with Kirk.  The war with the Klingons was over   
   and we were in a truce, a cold war.  Remember The Trouble With Tribbles?  That   
   was the way we were with the Klingons.  The Klingon makeup and laanguae was all   
   wrong.  The Klingon home planet was wrong.  The home planet in Trek was "Kling"   
   not Kronos.   Kronos came later in the series.   Finally the out and out   
   violence.  Murder by the fedration?  I think not.   They made Mudd an out and   
   out criminal that should have been given the death sentence or at least a life   
   sentence.  They made him a murder rather than just a scrondrel.   
      
   Spock, who was a large part of season two never had a step-sister.  He had a   
   half brother who was never mentioned.  I saw only three references to TOS one   
   was Mudd and the other whas when Pike picked up the future Spike and saw   
   himself disfigured, also Vena and the Talosians were in the mix.   They tried   
   to get back to Trek cannon in the last two scenes in Part II of Sweet Sorrow   
   when they had a scene on the bridge of the Entrprise as it appease, (modernly),   
   when Pike was Captain and Spock was the Lt. Science Officer.   
      
   THey tried to write off all that happened over the two years by sending the   
   Discovery and her crew into the future.  For anyone left they were resticted   
   "under penalty of death" of every taking or mentioning Discovery and the events   
   that happened in the first two seasons.  Even Sarek and Amanda were self   
   quarrentined from talking about it calling them "Ambasadors To the Federation."   
   Sarek was an Ambasador, Amanda never was.   
      
   Was this a two year effort with no more seasons of Discovery?  How do you have   
   a season 3 when Discovery and all her crew is dead or gone?   
      
   Well I'm waiting for "Picard" to come out on DVD. A friend says it is very   
   good and is "good Trek".  Though I do have a disagrement that Data was blown   
   to smithereens in the last movie, but he said that Data was reconstruced from   
   DNA taken when they tried to disassemble him when Picard fought to call him   
   sentient.  We'll see about that one.   
      
   Below the first and only official Discovery tagline I was able to gleen from   
   the series.
