It looks as if fans of the Star Trek are in for a treat. With Star Trek: Discovery set to premiere on September 24, it will be the first television series in over a decade to come from the much-loved franchise and the first reactions on social media have been great.

The first two episodes of the new series screened in Hollywood and although full reviews are still under embargo, it didn’t take long for Star Trek alumni and critics to voice their pleasure with the new show.

Check out some of the reactions below from Adam Nimoy, Nana Visitor and Gates McFadden:

# StarTrek Discovery stands respectfully on the shoulders of past Treks and is positioned to take the tradition into the future. I loved it.
