Spoiler: The internet agrees too! And it’s not often they do that, let me tell you. Read on for the best Star Trek Discovery season 2 premiere reactions, including the response to new characters and surprise twists so, y’know, spoilers to follow.
Tell him your name, Pike!
Goodbye Lorca, hello Pike. The original Enterprise captain, played expertly by Anson Mount, made his bow on Discovery in typically confident fashion. While he may have ruffled some feathers (and whatever Saru is made out of) on the bridge, faꦿns watching at home couldn’t get enough.

How bril𒉰liant is @ansonmount!PLEASE STAY FOREVER CAPTAIN PIKE #StarTrekDiscovery
#StarTrekDiscovery Pik𒁃e ownsThat is all. Brain still sorting things out
The best Jet in space since Cowboy Bebop
But Pike wasn’t the only new person to make their mark. Stand-up comedian and all-round amazing person Tig Notaro almost stole the show as J🐷et Reno in the latter half of the premiere. From her deadpan deliveries to putting Pike in his place for asking stupid questions, Reno is one character we can’t way to see more of.
I already like #CommanderJetReno - too🌜 funny! I am hoping we get to see this character developed a lot further by #TigNotaro on #StarTrekDiscovery pic.twitter.com/RnXbyj3AIX

Tilly is still the greatest
The best character on TV is Tilly𓂃, okay? That is all.
Trying to watch the new #StarTrekDiscovery bu🧔t man, All Access is being choppy as hell.Also - Tilly remains the BEST. pic.twitter.com/6wnF4Veg5P
This is the power of math, people! #𝔉StarTrekDiscovery pic.twitter.com/2p8NrypUUq
Once #StarTrekDiscovery has run its course, I’d totaꦫlly be excited for a followup series focused on Captain Tilly’s first commandꦰ.
Starting off with a bang
Returning after such an acclaimed season is always a tricky course to navig🌺ate, but it definitely felt like Sꦅtar Trek Discovery’s second season stuck the landing – and then some. Some viewers were even getting a bit emotional. D’aww.
Dear Star Trek ❀fans, Discovery is the best version of Star Trek I’ve ever watched, #StarTrekDiscovery
Absolutely love the✅ vibe of the #StarTrekDiscovery season premiere. So excited for the💝 rest of the season!!
The Star Trek theme will forever give𒅌 me goodebumps, doesn't matter how subtle it is inwoven into the score (3min into #StarTrekDiscovery seaso🌌n2 and I'm already emotional)
Feeling blue? Bye, bye annoying guy
Redshirts always die, right? That’s pretty much one of the few steadfast rules in Star T🍷rek canon. Not so this time. This time, we got the most annoying blueshirt in the history of blueshirts trying to mansplain to Michael bloody Burnham. It’s too bad he didn’t see that asteroid coming...

Don't RIP blue shirt guy. You died trying to🏅 mansplain something to someone more qualified than you. No one will mourn you. #StarTrekDis♋covery pic.twitter.com/MR9kZQy31f
#StarTrekDiscovery Thrilling premiere, but🍨 will our joke about red shirts turn ꩲto blue shirts?
Baby Spock (do, do, do, do, do)
Spock was mentioned throughout the episode – and heavy promoted in trailers and teasers – but the show is holding off Michael meeting up with Young Spock (for now). Iꦜnstead, we got a few strange Kid Spock interludes, including the Vulcan throwing a strop at his new half-sister. Sassy.
Lil'Spock's reaction to not being the only kid𝓀 in the house is such typical little kid behaviour, lol. He even essentially threw a toy at her. #StarTrekDiscovery
I always knew Spock was a💯🦂n asshole as a kid. #StarTrekDiscovery
Baby Spock Doo Doo Doo Doo Do Do. 😂 #StarTrekDiscovery
