Welcome to STAR TREK DISCOVERY Season One, an odyssey that unfolds a decade before the era of Star Trek The Original Series. Sonequa Martin-Green stars as Michael Burnham, formerly one of Starfleets's most respected first officers - and now it's first mutineer. A human raised as a Vulcan, Burnham learned early that Inchall life is born from chaos.Inch Her defiance of a direct order resulted in an all-out war with the Klingon Empire, and she was sentenced to life in prison - until Captain Gabriel Lorca (Jason Isaacs) recruits her aboard the U.S.S. Discovery. Joining her on this dramatic, epic journey are Captain Gabriel Lorca (Jason Isaacs), First Officer Saru (Doug Jones), Chief of Security Ash Tyler (Shazad Latif), Chief Engineer Paul Stamets (Anthony Rapp), and Cadet Sylvia Tilly (Mary Wiseman). Together, their powers of logic, science and compassion will meld on their quest for victory, survival and ultimately, peace in the universe.

Its a good start to an old story
on July 31, 2019
Posted by: DavidI
Verified Purchase:Yes
We have, I believe, three Star Trek universes. We have the originals. We have the movie reboots. And now we have Discovery. This show takes us back to Rodenberry's roots with a stellar cast (pun intended) and great writing. So glad I own it since I don't use streaming services like CBS.

Shazam? SHAZAM!!!!
on July 31, 2019

Verified Purchase:Yes
DC's Captain Marvel... aka SHAZAM is a hard character to do right. You have a teen boy in an adult body with powers he is not ready for. Thankfully Zachary Levi (from Chuck) fits the role perfectly. It is fun. It is good for adults and children. It is FUN! And it is well done.

This is supposed to be a superhero show. After the first season I can neither confirm nor deny this. Still, it was fun and trippy.

Comedy icons Gene Wilder, Peter Boyle, Cloris Leachman, Marty Feldman, Teri Garr and Madeline Kahn star in Mel Brooks' brilliantly outrageous riff on Mary Shelley's classic story of Frankenstein. After inheriting his grandfather's castle in Transylvania, young Dr. Frankenstein (Wilder) follows in his ancestor's freaky footsteps as he sets out to reanimate a dead body in Brooks funniest, most cohesive comedy to date'. (The New York Times)

A good, well-priced Blu-ray player

Verified Purchase:Yes
Loo. If you don't have a smart TV and you want all the bells and whistles, spend the extra $10 and get the wireless model. Otherwise you will be looking for a LAN cable to use the special features. If you have a smart TV then this works great as a decent blu-ray player without a lot of hassle.

The 4-Series Roku TV delivers stunning 4K picture quality with four times the resolution of Full HD for enhanced clarity and detail, as well as endless entertainment with thousands of streaming channels. High dynamic range (HDR) technology delivers bright and accurate colors for a lifelike viewing experience. In addition, your favorite HD shows, movies, and sporting events are upscaled to near Ultra HD resolution with 4K Upscaling. The simple, personalized home screen allows seamless access to thousands of streaming channels, plus your cable box, Blu-ray player, gaming console, and other devices without flipping through inputs or complicated menus. The super-simple remote~with about half the number of buttons on a traditional TV remote~puts you in control of your favorite entertainment.
 

Why does the sound double and echo? Especially on Hulu. I have a Samsung soundbar with the TV audio turned off.

This works amazingly well with sound bars. Mine turns my surround sound on when I turn it on and mutes itself while the surround sound is on. If the surround sound turns off the TV resumes volume. There is no duplication or echoes.

Is chromecast built-in feature in this model?

Chromecast is a the name of a service like Amazon's Firestick. It allows you to turn your TV into internet ready by broadcasting from your computer (Google Chome, hence the name) and turning your regular TV into an internet TV. Whatever other feature are activated by Chromecast it is still more or less just a regular TV without your computer. This is a ROKU which is a stand alone internet ready smart TV. With it I can stream Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon prime directly from the TV (wireless capable or LAN) without having to use my computer. That is the drawback of Chromecast. You have to have you computer connected to the TV. That means that you cannot use your computer for other tasks while streaming. With a ROKU TV like this you can still "cast" your computer to your TV so if you are playing a video game and want a larger monitor you are set.

How much does this model weigh?

I'd estimate it to be about 25-30 lbs. It is light enough that without bulk of the box one person can easily handle it, even though the manufacturer does not recommend this. I was able to set this up and move it where and how I needed it single handed and without effort.

Is it Compatible with PC? Does it come with a Y connector? Is that all I need to get it to work on PC?

It only comes with the basic 3.5 headphone plug. If your computer needs a Y connector then it MAY not work
