Just saw this news, still over a year out, but it's coming at long last...the dark times are coming to an end...

Yes, it seems very official.  Or as official as these things can be.  Let the internet discussions and rabble rousing begin!

I guess it's likely to have a limited run of maybe 13 episodes then if it's only going to be available through CBS live access. I don't really mind the $5.99 a month but most of the CBS shows I care about are already on Netflix and if I subscribed it would be only to watch the new series and cancel once it was over. I think they will isolate a huge part of their potential audience by this decision and thus I expect it will have a very short life.

Got a long way to go and much to come on this.  Exciting!

I don't really care what medium they deliver this to me, as long as I can get it. I read a few things about international, and said it would be available, but not how, so I just hope it is something I can get. Maybe this form of broadcasting it is better then a network TV approach for Trek, like syndication was great for TNG. Network TV and this type of Sci-Fi has never really had a great history, and I don't want to have to read articles each week about Treks ratings and what they mean.

CAN'T WAIT! I already have CBS all access so I guess I'll be keeping it. Plus I can watch CBS live in HD on All Access where my basic cable is not. So tonight I watched Supergirl live though the service!
