I agree...I think they went "all in" not knowing what the future of the show would hold...and the turmoil at the development stages only contributed to the choppiness.
I expect better this winter.

On Monday I'll start the thread for voting on Part Two of the Golden Gormaganders!
I mentioned this in a Facebook comment, but of the 5 Trek series that have 2-part Pilot episodes, Discovery is the first and only one where Parts 1 and 2 of the Pilot have separate and distinct titles.
I'm about to Post Round Two of the voting for the Awards.
I'd guess this was a pragmatic choice. CBS only intended to air the first hour, so they regarded it as two parts. Whereas all premieres during the Berman Era weren't two-part episodes so much as they were two-hour episodes. Later airings and strip-syndication converted them into two parts after the fact instead of from the get-go.

^ DS9 is the only other series to have two-part episodes where the installments have separate and distinct titles, which is fitting since DSC is actually very similar to that series in tone and format.
And in abbreviation!
If DSC had come out right after DS9 ended, I never would've stopped watching.
I thought Marina was guest-starring on the new season of The Orville, not Disco.
That we know of. Of course, it is possible she doesn't appear, but I wouldn't be surprised if she does. That's why in the original quote I said "I'm guessing."
I've been running around with like a headless chicken all day prepping for a shoot this weekend and next. My mind is racing at 200 miles-per-hour. Organizing a project and planning for it with so many people, so many moving parts, and so many factors involved will make anyone's head spin.
How am I going to unwind? By re-watching the last two episodes of Discovery's first season. I've been meaning to do this for a while. Might as well do it now.
Of course, the true way to relax is to not be in charge of anything.
EDIT (adding in thoughts as I go along while watching "The War Within, The War Without"):
According to Cornwell, Prime Lorca was "measure, reasoned." Saying this as she disintegrates a bowl of fortune cookies. So, I'm guessing Prime Lorca wasn't into fortunes either. Fortunes were what the "imposter" liked.
"From what you've told me of the Mirror Universe, no one officer could survive there alone. My Gabriel's dead." You know what? Because she said that, I'm going to say her Gabriel is alive.
Tilly, in her discussion with Burnham about AshVoq, seems wise beyond her years. I can't imagine Tilly from the beginning of the season being able to give Burnham such advice. It must be because of the how much of a friend she sees Tyler as and that he should be judged for who he is and not what he is.

Nothing like watching Georgiou taking command of Discovery.
The Hell with Pike, or Lorca. I want Emperor Georgiou in command. She'll know what do with anyone who objects.

I saw this pointed out on Reddit, but when Mudd is beamed off Discovery at the ending of Episode 7, his transporter FX is different from Stella and her father's, now it might just be a mistake by the FX guys, but who knows.
Mudd is in the middle. He disappears in a smoke like FX while the other two don't.
His beam FX also starts and finishes faster
Also a little bit of the TOS Theme played as Michael and Tyler left the transporter room that I never noticed before.

Why do people say the USS Discovery interiors are dark?

Yeah the bridge is dark, but everything else is lit well.

I think people mean in relation to the way too bright, sterile lighting of TNG.
