The Disco-TOS Uniforms are growing on me.
Spoilers General Disco Chat Thread

Aside from 2-3 comments I've seen (speaking of straw-grabbing, inane nitpicking) about the unacceptable shade of yellow of Pike's uniform, I'd say I agree.
That pretty convenient. I hate shopping for clothes.
23rd Century technology at its finest.
26th Century... so the Enterprise-J was grown?
That was his head canon, yes.
I don’t think he meant it was organic, but it was some sort of manufacturing process similar to an organic growth.
"Captain, this is the third time you've destroyed your own ship by ramming the enemy ship! These things don't grow on trees, damnit!"
"Actually Admiral, yes. Yes they do."
"Oh. Well, have a good day, Captan."
"You too, sir."
That explains some things I was wondering about. So they're not all inter-connected. One week Section 31, another week Harry Mudd, another week something else, and the Red Signals will come into direct focus during key points.
I wonder if Pike is intended (in-universe) to be a permanent Captain for Discovery and then, for some reason, he goes back to the Enterprise at the end? Or if Starfleet has him on-duty until they can find Spock and uncover the Red Signal mystery with the Spore Drive?
It would be good to have some side-stories with Number One in command of the Enterprise...
... and, yeah, even though they have all these other things planned, I hope they can manage to work in a series about Pike's Enterprise. I'm warming up to the idea. I think three ongoing series would be overkill though. If I had to choose I'd rather have Discovery and a Pike Series than Discovery and a Picard Series. Oh well.

"Homegrown microwave starships are the way to go!"
Well in the first trailer he said he was commandeering the ship because of the lights.
So that makes the most sense.
Still wonder who the actual captain they were supposed to pick up on Vulcan was. I wonder if they'll ever mention that line again.
Show off
I think Praxis will figure into DSC yet. That's begging to be set up. Between the ongoing Klingon storyline and the fact that it's a prequel in general, I think they're working towards the path of Star Trek VI.
I view TUC not only as the true finale of TOS (not "Turnabout Intruder") but also as the final word on the 23rd Century (with the opening of GEN just being a post-script), so the more ground-work DSC can add to it, the better. Maybe we'll have a much better understanding of how the Empire in this general era ticks since they're re-establishing unity here and whatever is set up now will probably still exist by the movies.

We take the finest homegrown duratanium, add our secret 11 alloys and composites to make the juiciest finger-lickin starships you know and love.
Best if used by Stardate 247988.
