Spoilers Easter Eggs/Call Backs - All Episodes

this is probably obvious, but a ton of sound effects were pulled directly from the previous series.

the shenzhou transporter room featured the same perpetual beeping as the enterprise-D's sickbay.

actually i found that annoying. but hey easter egg.
 
Wasn't the Klingon that ended his communication and left named Kor?

His name was Kol. Some reviews said he was from the House of Kor, but he doesn't mention his House name in the episode, so I'm not sure if that's a mistake or potential spoiler. The dialogue implies that Voq may have been born to Kol's House (or that he has outcasted "vermin" similar to Voq, at least), so he's potentially a cousin or something to Kor (who incidentally, is the "son of Rynar" unless they retcon that).

But we do see the House of D'Ghor (led by a woman!) and the House of Mo'Kai become followers of T'Kuvma. Some say that T'Kuvma might be a contraction of the kuvah'magh (Klingon messiah) from Voyager.
 
Have compiled a video with all the Easter Egg and references to Trek cannon in the opening two episodes: 'A Vulcan Hello' and 'Battle at the Binary Stars'. Really hope I didn't miss anything big!

Something I'm surprised no one has mentioned yet, Michael's story about the Vulcan Hello mentions the planet H'atoria, which was the planet Worf was governor of in AGT.
Or well, at least the name of the city and the fact it is on Andoria, no where on the plaque does it say it is the capital :P

Where was this a year ago when I wasn't sick of that argument? This is gold!

That comes from Kenneth Mitchell (who played Kol). He says that Kol is a member of the House of Kor.

Well to be fair, it is an andorian military academy, they’re a pretty martial race.
 
Looking back, it does make some sort of sense. Kor does not seem like the type who would go along with T'Kuvma's machinations, and Kol definitely was not.
 
I caught that, too. If LV-426 is in Klingon territory, they've got bigger problems than the Federation. Xenomorphs don't give a crap about racial purity. Or your digestive tract.

Hey, new idea! Klingons were once smooth headed humanoids, found LV-426, and founded a delightful friendship with the xenomorphs. After years of cross-species dating, you have Discovery Klingons with elongated heads and bumpy foreheads.

Sounds more believable than an augment virus...

I mentioned it in the video. What I haven't heard mentioned is the Vulcan expeditions that Burnham talked about - one of these would have been something that Kirk would have participated in or may even be taking part in at the time of DSC...
