The latest episode of Star Trek: Discovery, “Forget Me Not” (now available for streaming on CBS-All Access) continues the winning streak we’ve seen in the previous three installments of this series’ stronger, more confident third season under new showrunner Michelle Paradise.

CBS-All Access has just dropped the latest episode of Star Trek Discovery’s third season, “People Of Earth” for streaming, and it’s another winner.

Paley Fest 2019: “Star Trek: Discovery” and the new “Twilight Zone”…
Way back in March of 2006, a very good friend of ours (and convention pal) helped my wife and I secure tickets to an event for the Paley Center (then it was called the MTR; Museum for Television and Radio) honoring our favorite show at the time, Ron Moore’s revision of “Battlestar Galactica.” It was…
Star Trek: Discovery, S2.9: “Project Daedalus” is a conspiracy wrapped in an enigma…
After the retro-fun of returning to Talos IV in “If Memory Serves”, Star Trek: Discovery takes yet another detour into edgy Trek with “Project Daedalus”; an installment that has some nice character moments, yet bumps its head on the ceiling of its own serialized format, leaving an incomplete episode that still delivers some thrilling action…

It aims high and true, but sometimes the arrow falls a bit short of target. Season two started off on a soft reboot of the series…
Star Trek: Discovery, S2.4; “An Obol For Charon” offers two sides of the coin…
