Here let me quote The Verge



To take advantage of the deal, sign up for CBS All Access using the code GIFT anytime before April 23rd. As part of that process, you’ll need to create an account and give CBS a credit card to charge when the month is up; the monthly payment will automatically renew once the free trial is up.

CBS also allows you to cancel the plan immediately and still use the entire month — so you can sign up, cancel the plan immediately, and still enjoy the full free month without having to worry about remembering to cancel at the end of the trial.

To do that, head over to the CBS All Access account page, scroll down to the “Subscription” line of the “Subscription & Billing” section, and hit “Cancel Subscription.” Your account will still work for the remainder of the 30-day trial, and it will shut down at the end (unless, of course, you enjoy the content so much that you decide to pay for another month, which is likely the whole point).


Note this is not a trick, and Patrick Stewart himself on his twitter account was promoting the 1 month free trial with the code GIFT .


What does feel the same is the StarFleet vibe. Granted, I say that as last night I watched an episode when they reference the Prime Directive, and then pretty much just push it aside in a very blatant way. So you didn't like ST: Enterprise? Why? There were some lame moments to that series (like all of them), but I'm curious as to why you didn't like it.

I just could not get into the characters, like they hated each other and were full of loathing but they were forced to work together in the same work environment.

Furthermore and this was the teenage part of myself talking decades ago...the tech and the timeline did not make sense. There was no way Humans would have X after only recently discovering Warp and it would have an "equal" footing to other powers that be during such time. They would be out gun, or would have been stealing tech from other civilizations in order to play catch up.

Pretty much I did not feel wonder while watching Enterprise. Nor did I question the nature of the current social reality and if there was a better way of doing things, or sit back and take in a different culture and see there way of doing things was also internally consistent and in some ways legitimate. Pretty much it did not feel like Star Trek. Like I said earlier 9/11 changed everything with our culture in subtle ways.
