{5\/5} “You had me at ‘unsanctioned mission.'” — Philippa Georgiou<\/p>\n
Star Trek: Discovery <\/strong>season 3, aired in 2020<\/p>\n Burnham arrives 930 years in the future, and immediately runs into Book, a courier. He reveals that the Federation is gone, having fallen after a tragedy called the Burn. Discovery finally arrives as well, but it crashes into a planet where the ice is parasitic and a not-so-nice guy is in charge. Burnham reunites with Discovery and they go to Earth — but things are not what they expect when they arrive.<\/p>\n The season premiere is astonishing, and the episodes continue in the same fashion. Tilly as acting captain in the last 2 episodes was thrilling.<\/p>\n Visually, they did a superb job depicting the future. The initial skepticism of future Starfleet towards the Discovery crew was done well.<\/p>\n The season finale has a few odd things, but on the whole this is the season where the show lives up to its full potential.<\/p>\n In “Unification III” Discovery returns to the planet formerly known as Vulcan — and Burnham argues that they should reveal what they know about the Burn. In the 2-part “Terra Firma” Georgiou returns to the Mirror Universe by using the Guardian of Forever. In “There is a Tide…” the ruthless Osyraa has taken over Discovery and brings it into Federation headquarters.<\/p>\n The 1st “short trek” of the year started things off gloriously with an episode about Spock and Number One. In other short treks we find out why a cadet is handed Captain Pike as a prisoner, we hear a myth about the origin of the stars, and we follow 2 girls who dislike each other on the day Mars is attacked by synths.<\/p>\n Guest stars include David Cronenberg, Ian Alexander, and Paul Guilfoyle.<\/p>\n Stars Wilson Cruz, Rachael Ancheril, and David Ajala.<\/p>\n
