We’ve just beamed back from the Star Trek: Discovery Hollywood premiere, where our team was part of the first group of fans and critics to get a look at the first episodes of Discovery‘s first season.

While CBS streamed the pre-premiere press event on their USA-locked Facebook page, we spent nearly two hours chatting with the cast and production team behind the series in a series of interviews we’ll be bringing to you throughout the week.
As we talked about earlier in the week, no reviews can be shared until Sunday evening – but we’ve got a bit of non-spoilery reactions to the episodes that we shared on Twitter late Tuesday night.
Quick non-spoilery thoughts on the #StarTrekDiscovery premiere.

.@actordougjones Saru is great. Lot more too him than just 'sensing death' seen in promos.

Burnham is truly the center of this series – and @SonequaMG has what it takes.

VFX work is really stunning. Everything in the trailers definitely in-progress versions of the effects.

Any worries about stilted dialogue in teasers can be forgotten; definitely affected by editing for ads.

If you liked the theme song, just wait until you see it paired with the opening credits sequence.
