    I do think that the saucer of the ship looks nice, I just can't bring myself to like the neck of the ship. It just doesn't seem to work with it, who knows. Maybe it'll grow on me and I hope it does. Seems like it will be a decent series if I can get to like the ship. They've still got a while to go yet until the first episode so maybe they'll make the neck of the ship look prettier.

    I think the ship can grow on me although I was a little off put by it at first. Honestly the biggest turn off for this series is the streaming plan for it.

    Quick FYI post for anyone who reads this, there is an ongoing discussion thread here with other bits of info and many many ship opinions! lol

    As for streaming - yep CBS All Access not the greatest choice, but at least we poor international customers can get it through Netflix. And although that sounds crap for US/Canada fans at least it might go to Netflix US in the future.

    I notice a heavy Klingon-ish music theme + Fed-Kling hybrid looking ship. May be a clue to possible stage setting for the story.

    They are still going with the subscription plan and now they introduced this "thing". I think I found another reason not to watch.

    O'Neill, it is being picked up outside of CBS All Access by other places (Netflix being one of them), so most likely just broadcasted first at CBS All Access and then goes elsewhere in a few months time.

    The saucer is the only thing I like about this ship. Otherwise, it is ugly.

    At least we got a series. Let's hope the writing and casting is good. Fingers crossed...

    I suppose once we start to hear news about casting, we'll get a better idea of what it might become, though there will be some unknown names I suspect.

    Very true. I'm hoping by asthetics, it is actually a Fed/KDF ship and that the two sides are working together with it.

    Also, Klingon Captain please if this is so. I want the first officer to be Fed just so that the two sides will clash on how things should be handled. At least at first, you know. Also KDF so that we can get some awesome KDFness.

    If you were smart, you'd design a cube for your ship imo!
