Be aware that there's two huge "this isn't Star Trek at all" plot points going on in Discovery. Both of change the vibe substantially from traditional Star Trek.

One causes an improbable Federation captain. One causes a lot of events to improbably revolve around a single character.

After experiencing both big reveals, I love everything about one of them and still dislike the other.

Sadly, the one I liked was wrapped up by the end of season 1, while the one I didn't care for dragged on through season 3.
