What the audience says
Star Trek: Discovery holds up as a perfectly decent English series, if not a remarkable one. It's sitting at 6.9/10 on TMDB across 2,107 ratings, which puts it around the middle of the pack.
Is it worth starting?
This is 5 seasons deep — English sci-fi & fantasy, leaning action & adventure. There's a lot of it, which is either the appeal or the problem depending on your week.
