What's Past is Prologue Ratings & Reviews
CinemaBlend
Mick Joest
Star Trek: Discovery has surprisingly killed off several major characters in its still-young run, but none were more surprising than last night's big death.
Independent (UK)
Andrew Lowry
Much of this episode is straight-up action, with two surprisingly well-choreographed battles between Lorca and Georgiou's forces - indeed, good fights have become an unlikely signature of STD.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Mallory Ortberg
The Lorca stuff is a mess from start to finish, but there's still plenty to enjoy here.
SFX Magazine
Lauren O'Callaghan
While far too much happens in this show, everything which takes place is still fantastic and the series continues to improve week-on-week.
Birth.Movies.Death.
Andrew Todd
With two episodes remaining in Discovery's first season, the show's various plot threads are starting to wrap up or converge.

Could we be looking at parallel universes and time travel in the first season of Discovery? If we weren't having such fun, we'd be getting whiplash.
New York Times
Sopan Deb
"Discovery" has great action. But in both, the characters make such astoundingly odd decisions that it makes it difficult to get invested in the action. The plots exist simply as transportation vehicles.
Entertainment Weekly
Darren Franich
If you're going to be the most violent Star Trek show ever, you might as well be a fun violent Star Trek show.
Den of Geek
Kayti Burt
You would be forgiven for thinking that tonight's episode of Star Trek: Discovery was the season finale. It had all the marking of a season-ender: high stakes, much-anticipated showdowns, the tying up of many loose ends, and tons of action.
AV Club
Zack Handlen
This is a well-directed episode. I keep praising the show's pacing because it's one of the few things I feel like I can praise, but even while the overall narrative construction and sense of coherent world aren't great, the pacing here is good.
io9.com
Katharine Trendacosta
This episode moves at a nice clip, with some great fights and acting. It's whenever anyone starts pontificating, reminding us that a lot of what's happening doesn't match up to the rest of the season, that it falls apart.
The Mary Sue
Kaila Hale-Stern
I'm not sure how they pull it off, but Discovery somehow manages to simultaneously be both mind-numbingly predictable and shockingly out-of-left-field.
TV Fanatic
Diana Keng
So, although it was exciting and somewhat satisfying, this script tapped Game of Thrones, Star Wars...and kind of forgets to be Star Trek.
Slashfilm
Monique Jones
Isaacs is such a brilliant actor and it was such a treat to see him make Lorca unlikable in the truly, well, likable Isaacs fashion.
IGN Movies
Scott Collura
Everything seems to be coming together for Star Trek: Discovery plot-wise as we head into the final two episodes of the season.
Cultured Vultures
Huw Saunders
The show's decisively got its hook for the next episode.
Syfy Wire
Swapna Krishna
I'm ready to see what happens, and yet I am in no way prepared to say goodbye to this show for months (possibly a year) until the second season.
Akron Beacon Journal
George M. Thomas
For those taking notes, the latest episode of Star Trek: Discovery and its title showcased serious tributes to its predecessors. Not just one, but several.
