Rumors of a Dr. McCoy cameo.

I'm just going to copy over one of the comments (disclaimer: I don't necessarily share all of the opinions, etc. etc.):

"This series is "eagerly anticipated"? I wonder by whom? Most of the Trekkies I know are more hand wringing and fretting about the ship and the recently released Klingon photos. It is not looking that great overall. Why would Bones be on this ship and not mention it later in TOS? Not wise. Fake ties to actual trek will be a big fail if they try it. Putting Leonard Nimoy in the Kelvin films did not improve them at all, nor did he give them credibility as being actual Star Trek."

Speculation that the Klingon and Starfleet ships on the show have been mashed into one vessel.

Supposedly this'll make it easier to follow all the characters, and also account for the odd design of the Discovery. Yeah, no.

There will be a cadet on the bridge, and its pointed out that "Shenzhou" is a Chinese name.

Why the Klingons are flying around in a ship with an Earth name is beyond me.
