STAR TREK: DISCOVERY
CBS, 10:00 p.m. ET
SERIES PREMIERE: Sort of. Actually, this Star Trek spinoff series premiered back in 2017, when CBS All Access produced and presented it as the big-ticket offering on its new paid subscription streaming service. And now it arrives as a weekly offering on CBS, the free broadcast network, beginning with tonight’s premiere episode of Season 1. So if this were Jeopardy, and the answer were, “Three years,” the correct question would be: “How long does it take to get what you don’t pay for?”
