I'm fine calling it STD. We're taking back what was meant as an insult and through using it seriously, making it no longer funny or mean.
Episode 5-9 titles revealed

That's because for 8 years previous to TNG's premiere it WAS the theme for ST:TMP.
Hey, I LIKE the show, but still use it because I find the double entendre of it amusing (along wit the fact some people just can't get over the use of the first 3 letters of a series title.)
I also refuse to believe the Star Trek fans (if they have even been into actual Star Trek fandom as they claim) COULDN'T see this coming when they settled on the title for this series.
That's not how it works.
We've started a movement. The Pro-STD movement! Wait, no, nevermind, I'm out.
Wouldn’t we assume STV refers to, ahem, ST V. As in, the 5th movie.
Dude, we're four freaking episodes in. If you don't like it, that's fine. Maybe it's just not for you. But, seriously, Discovery is just starting its journey.
When I dislike something so much, I stop watching it. Maybe that's just me though.
Much as I'm enjoying Discovery, and think it's one the best starts Trek has had, I certainly agree it should have the chance to grow, four episodes in House of Cards, Handmaid's Tale, and Man in the High Castle were all stronger. It's a Trek specific oddity, the need for a long run up.

Only for post-TOS Star Trek. TOS started strong out the gate (especially when viewed in episode production order.)
#FreeSTD
Hey, speaking of STD's and episode titles. They totally need to do a prequel to Naked Time. Naked Time, Naked Now... The Naked Forever. Have someone catch an STD.
Maybe Tilly, for the extra awkward factor. Ensign Water Bear. It'll be magic.

A Naked Whatever episode of Discovery with its TV-MA rating might actually live up to its name for once.
Here-here! This seems like a quibbly thing to complain about, but I feel that not including the the title at the beginning of Act 1, as in previous Trek shows, is a big oversight. Even The Orville has their titles on screen!
No, what works really well is constantly complaining about something completely pointless and insignificant and letting everyone in the forum know that that is a very easy way to irritate you. That'll surely get them to stop!
*ahem* that's fear ganglia. Danglia? Uh oh, his fear bits are dangling out again.. Hum...
Everyone's favorite thing about DS9 was having a character with arousal organs in plain view on his head, right? Thank god the STD writers understood they had to continue that Trek tradition. Without that, it's just not really continuing the Trek spirit!
I haven't seen those other shows so I can't comment on them. But, I have been enjoying Discovery greatly. Agree about it being one of the best Trek starts. It's still early days though and I'm looking forward to seeing what's coming up!
