OMG! New preview! And it's great!

Looks visually stunning, but, to be honest, if "Star Trek" wasn't in the title, I'd have no interest in that. For an episode or a few episodes, sure. As the narrative throughline, not so much.

I'm still excited, but I'm clinging to the hope that there's a lot more story diversity than the promos are giving us.

I'm thinking all of the footage is from the first two episodes. Notice how they keep showing the same action scenes/locations? I'm thinking they keep having to show the same action scenes because there AREN'T many action scenes. The rest they aren't showing is the meat and potatoes of the story. But you gotta show action in a trailer to catch the viewers eyes.
 
I would have to admit that none of the trailers have blown me away, but then trailers rarely do (for me at least) The last trailer which I would put in the WOW category would be Beauty and the Beast, even though I am not at all the target audience. I just found everything perfect, especially the music which was perfectly matched to every scene.

The stills released of Discovery have wet my appetite more.
 
I think the forest planet is from a later episode - one of the writers confirmed it was nice to see footage from their episode on screen.

I'm also wondering if there's some kind of a big twist at the end of the second episode that they are avoiding spoiling.
 
Just realized that Saru is shown in a command uniform, don't know if we've seen that before. Looks like on the Shenzhou, Saru is science and Burnham is command, but it's the other way around on the Discovery.
 
Is that video available on youtube anywhere? Always a bit hesitant of streaming sites.
