How To Watch ‘Star Trek: Discovery’

Star Trek is about to return to television for the first time in over a decade, but not in the traditional sense.

Star Trek: Discovery will be the first streaming Star Trek series, but fans will have the chance to get their first taste of the new show on traditional television.

How one goes about watching Star Trek: Discovery varies a bit from country to country, so we’re here to clarify exactly what you need to do to make sure you don’t miss the dawn of a new era for Star Trek.

Star Trek: Discovery‘s 15-episode first season kicks off with a special two-part premiere. In the United States, the first hour of the premiere will broadcast on CBS on Sunday, September 24th at 8:30 p.m. ET following NFL Football and 60 Minutes.

In the US, the first part of the premiere will be simultaneously available on the CBS All Access streaming service, which will be the show’s new home for the remainder of the season. The second hour of Star Trek: Discovery’s two-part premiere will become available exclusively to CBS All Access subscribers at 9:30 p.m. ET on September 24th.

Future episodes of Star Trek: Discovery will be released Sundays at 8:30 p.m. ET on CBS All Access.

A subscription to CBS All Access costs $5.99 per month. Those interested in an ad-free experience have the option of getting one for the higher price of $9.99 per month. CBS is also offering a one-month free trial period for new CBS All Access subscribers.

CBS All Access has more to offer than just Star Trek: Discovery. The service boasts over 9,000 episodes of television, including current CBS programming, older episodes, and original series.

Perhaps of most interest to Star Trek fans is that CBS All Access offers every episode of Star Trek television ever produced as part of its streaming library, as well as most of the Star Trek film series.

CBS All Access can be accessed in a web browser and has apps available for Apple TV, iPhone, iPad, Android, Google Chromecast, Fire TV, PlayStation 4, Roku, Windows 10, and Xbox. The CBS All Access app is also available on select smart TVs.

That’s how you get to watch Star Trek: Discovery in the United States, but what about internationally?
