I've been using my daughter's Amazon Prime account streaming - not for too much. Nearly anything worth watching is not included. HuluPlus is where I turned, though, if movies were my interest, NetFlix seemed the way to go.
Maybe your 30-day trial period with Amazon Prime is still open for cancellation?

It is - but it's 60 days due to a courier laziness failure.
But ... Herself wants it for the new Top Gear replacement, whatever they finally call it. And I just bought a Fire TV stick to use it (because Amazon doesn't want to play with Google  )
I suspect I'll end up with both, but that'll be complicated because Herself doesn't like learning anything new!

I'll watch the episode they air on TV, but I refused to subscribe for it. I'll wait for it to come out on Netflix and watch it (if it doesn't suck of course).
BTW, I don't care for the ship's configuration.

Agreed. It looks almost like a Federation/Klingon hybrid.
It's apparently set in the "Prime" timeline, rather than the JJ Abrams timeline, so that's a bonus. But I haven't seen any indication of when it's set.

My guess is that this is pre-TOS as the ship's hull number is NCC-1031.

Where does it fit between TOS and STE (with Scott Bakula)?

Well, see, Scott Bakula leaped into the body of a 22nd century starship captain... Obviously the machine malfunctioned somehow, because despite Ziggy's best efforts, Sam ended up living several years in that body before leaping out. Usually it happens as soon as he solves some big problem in their life, but I guess he just didn't accomplish anything.
But because of his efforts, he changed the past, and now TOS never actually happened, so this is actually a third new timeline, after STE.

Hmm...maybe a different name would have been better.

What an awful looking ship! Is it my imagination, or did the rendering look lower quality than many fan-made ships? Whatever happened to elegance?

After they found out that they can movie goers will settle for remakes, or action adventure without plots, it was just a matter of time before the cut back on what little was still left.
In the future, you just send them your money; sit home; and watch the fridge.

Well, let's see, we had
TOS (The Original Series)
STNG (Star Trek Next Generation)
STDS9 (Deep Space Nine)
STV (Voyager)
STE (Star Trek Enterprise)
And now we have

You would think that by the time the 23rd century comes around, they would have to deal with STDs any more...

As someone who s-canned my TV because of commercials many years ago, I have no idea what CBS All Access is.
I'm guessing it's the usual advertisement infested garbage where they took shows, edited them to remove all the humor, then slapped ads all over them, chopped them up to fit in their time slots and blast them at blithering idiots?
If so, bye bye Star Trek. No broadcast networks for me.
(and that's my favorite show, all the back to 1969)

it's where you subscribe to have access to watch the show on your digital device and still get hit with advertisements. Grrrr.

WTF.
I getting more and more inclined towards don't mess with ant hill way. Let them do whatever they want in their homeland. You are not allowed here and we don't care what happens there approach is seems sensible.
Note: Any further discussions on this should be in Soapbox/Backroom IMHO.

It just struck me: an interesting consideration the the current news of the day should be in the SoapBox.
Just an interesting consideration.

This could too easily drift into a SoapBox matter. Hopefully, I won't.
The reality is our western perspective doesn't apply to rational decisions from non-western perspectives.
Being kind, forgiving, or helpful is often seen as appeasement is a sign of weakness - and vultures don't bring you a canteen of water if you collapse in the desert. The wait for the proper moment to feed on your flesh.
Israel has been suffering from this many little attacks for quite a while. The Swedish foreign minister condemned them for shooting the knife/gun/car wielder without a trial. For all practial purposes, encouragement. Now it's in the EU. Now what?
