      2021 Sci-Fi Drama List
      88% 17 Reviews Tomatometer 21% 1,000+ Ratings Audience Score Created by Bryan Fuller and Alex Kurtzman for CBS All Access, the story of "Star Trek: Discovery" begins roughly a decade before Captain Kirk's five-year mission -- as portrayed in the original "Star Trek" from the 1960s -- and a century before the events of "Star Trek: Enterprise." The series follows the crew of the USS Discovery as they encounter new worlds and civilizations, delving into familiar themes and expanding upon an incident that has been talked about within the franchise's universe, but never fully explored.

      Kym M So bad, I can't say anymore. Season 5 is worse! Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 04/27/24 Full Review Audience Member The series itself is nice but has absolutely nothing to do with Star Trek. However series 4 seems cheap. Cheap effects and incoherent storyline. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/22/24 Full Review Sarah Vay K Hooray! Love seeing Michael come into her own. Doug Jones is just awesome. The whole crew is great! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/21/24 Full Review Les H The special effects on season 4 are absolutely awful. What happened? Hard to watch because they are so bad. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 04/08/24 Full Review Joe E absolutely AWFUL writing, casting, acting, etc..... Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/07/24 Full Review Travis C A bit over the galaxy ending scenarios, but the ending of the season was in the true Gene Roddenberry and Star Trek tradition.

      Zack Handlen AV Club Discovery has saved the universe multiple times. Can't they just, I dunno, fly around and hang out for a while? Rated: B- Dec 1, 2021 Full Review Christian Blauvelt indieWire If depth of character -- other than Burnham -- is still sorely missing from Discovery, at least there's a lot of dazzle to feast on. Rated: B Nov 18, 2021 Full Review Iain Robertson Starburst The problem with formulas though is that they tend to become stale, and Discovery’s fourth season is a case in point. Rated: 2/5 Jan 3, 2023 Full Review Bill Brioux Brioux.tv Discovery seems to be boldly going on an action-adventure path not unlike the original Star Trek, times many more millions spent each episode. Aug 30, 2022 Full Review Jessie Gender Jessie Gender YouTube Channel It’s not perfect, but it constantly strives to be more than it is… and as always… the effort yields its rewards. May 4, 2022 Full Review Danielle Solzman Solzy at the Movies After four seasons, Star Trek: Discovery is in uncharted territory but represents the very best ideals that the franchise can offer.
