Sense8 as you mentioned on the other hand boy was there some steamy stuff in there. Was there any of that team not attractive
Ya but fetishes are evil in trek world and only mirror people have them.

Oh, so this thread blew up. Caught up on Discovery. Not bad. Especially if you just pretend like the first two episodes never happened. A lot of the idiotic things that I remember from watching the first three episodes get explained better:
Bringing them all into the officer's mess from the prison shuttle was stupid. Finding out that Lorca was targeting Michael specifically makes it a lot better. That said, those prisoners who attacked her really should have done so in the shuttle, not waiting until they were surrounded by Starfleet personnel.
Ellen Landry was still way too stupid to live.
Love the setup of the eyes and the light in the MU.
It is a lot tamer than they want you to think.
Season 2:
Uh, good overall, but there is a bit of a hangup that I have with Control. There had to be more than one way forward towards sentience. And it seemed kinda sentient already. Control really could have taken over everything first, then gone after Discovery. Oh, and the Ba'ul episode was BAD. Other than that, a lot of fun.
Season 3:
Seems boring and weird right now, but it's just starting. The aesthetic isn't very pleasing, but it might get better. I like the futuristic ship designs.
PICARD:
I just finished episode 4, and I'm really not enjoying it. It's boring. It's preachy. Peyton List's character is way too incesty for my taste. I'll stick with it, just in case the AI bad guy ties into Control.

And they said it wasn't a TNG sequel!
Soooooooooooooooooo... how did it go with all those nudes?
Am I a terrible person for laughing out loud at that post?
It won't.
That's why you have all the interspecies relationships. It's the only acceptable fetish.
Ugh, so stupid..
Caveat: It's in the "Previously on" in "Point of Light" (2x03). This may seem like a quibble, but for someone who doesn't want to be exposed to it, seeing it in a recap comes out to the same thing as seeing the original.
@JRoss For season 1 it was featured in "Into the Forest I Go" (the chapter 1 finale) and one other episode that followed early into chapter 2. (I want to say "The Wolf Inside", but I'm not positive.) Each instance is brief and part of a montage of traumatic flashbacks. This type of material personally makes me very uncomfortable as well, though it was at least brief. (Albeit irritating after CBS Interactive CEO Jim Lanzone previously laughed off the idea that they might have "naked Klingon"; admittedly, in the context of saying that they could if they wanted to, so it wasn't like it was a promise that they wouldn't.) That said, if you catch the season 1 re-airing on CBS Thursday nights at 10pm this will presumably be edited out. They've already done some other minor edits for time and language.
See previous comment for the first bit. Re: the "dance party", IMDb said:
IMDb said:
I want to say this is the first season finale "Will You Take Me Hand?" From what I remember, the IMDb description may be exaggerated. I don't think it was anything stronger than what we'd seen in previous episodes featuring Orion slave girls like "Borderland" (ENT) or "Bound" (ENT), so if you're generally comfortable with previous Treks, that one's probably going to be okay. Still, if it's a sore spot and you'd rather play it safe, just skip into season 2 and skip past the opening of "Point of Light" (2x03). (Though that has some of the grossest scenes in the series in terms of violence/gore IMO, so if you're more generally sensitive skip that one entirely.) My apologies if I'm forgetting anything.
EDIT: Sorry, missed that OP had already caught up, but maybe this'll at least be useful for people looking for this information later.

I recently rewatched it, and the Orion girls have at least a thong and nipples shield.
So... one's definition fo "nudity" in this particular case can vary.
For a Star Trek show, this shows very little skin. There is the oft discussed Klingon incident. There is the less discussed Orion appearance (which is on-screen for much longer). There are the little discussed incidents of Burnham in (non-revealing) underwear in the first episode and a nonrevealing bodysuit in the mirror universe. Other than those, the women are basically in uniforms that don't sexualize them or well covered when in disguise. The men's uniforms are more form fitting but still within the bounds of family friendly, again with very little skin shown. This compares quite favorably to TOS and TNG.
I don’t even remember the underwear scene at all.
There was a bathing scene in season 1 but again, nothing at all could be seen.
