Summary

Background information 
 Even before  started to be released, Aaron Harberts was already hopeful that this season could tie up some of the loose ends of continuity as regards how the series related to the rest of the Star Trek franchise, thereby answering inevitable questions about that aspect of the show. "What I hope happens is [...] [in the] second season, we'll start creating our own slice of it," he said, "so that we're adding to canon in our way, and those questions come up less and less." 
 In this, Harberts had to an extent already undone the emphatic statement his colleague Akiva Goldsman later made at the October 2017 New York Comic Con, shortly after the series had premiered, that "(...)Discovery will exist within its own universe," and while "[w]e are wildly aware of everything that appears to be a deviation from canon and we will close out all of those issues before they arrive at the 10-year period and hit The Original Series," adding that "Discovery viewers will never see Spock".  The apparently premature second season introduction of Christopher Pike and his ship and crew (including Spock) after all, was therefore indicative of the producers' reconsideration of their position in the wake of fan criticism regarding canon/(Roddenberry) philosophy/ issues, conceded as such at a later point in time by co-creator, show runner and Executive Producer Alex Kurtzman himself in his 2019 podcast interview (see: below).
 Harberts also expressed hope that this season might include many episodes which Goldsman would direct. 
 On , it was announced that the series had been renewed for a second season. 
 Filming for Season 2 began on , with Shazad Latif stating that he would begin filming in .   
 It was originally reported that Season 2 would have two fewer episodes than Season 1, but Anson Mount revealed on  that an additional episode had been added.  
 In May 2018, co-creator Alex Kurtzman stated that season two wouldn't be broadcast until 2019 at the earliest. "Breaking story is, in some ways, the easier and faster thing; it's the ability to execute on it that's much harder. We want to take the right amount of time and don't want to rush," he stated.  In , he confirmed that the season premiere was being targeted for release in . 
 Harberts and Gretchen J. Berg resigned as showrunners after production on the fifth episode, after the budget for the season premiere overran, and reports that they had become abusive towards the show's writers,  though in the latter case, independent corroboration from any "abusee" has, as of 2020, yet to materialize anywhere.
 The season premiere date was announced at the New York Comic Con Discovery panel on ,  and a trailer for the season was shown there, being released online immediately afterwards. 
 As had been the case with the first season, episodes were released internationally on Netflix the day after their CBS All Access debut. 
 Accompanying the season two debut on 17 January 2019 was a red carpet premiere affair held at the multiplex movie theater of the Conrad hotel in New York City, which was attended by the series' cast and crew.  Also invited were members of Visual Effects Society in the hope of improving the show's chances of a 2019 VES Award,  to no avail however, as season two was not considered for a 2019 VES award by the society, contrary to season one which received two award nominations – but no wins.
 Unlike the first season, however, there was not a mid-season break.

Reception 
The critical review site  has given the second season of Discovery a score of 81%, with an average rating of 7.32 out of 10, similar to the score for the preceding season. However, it has also recorded a worsening audience score of 36%, with an average rating of 2.33 out of 5, indicative of the developing rift between critics and viewers/fans growing even stronger after Season 1.  Unlike with that initial season, Rotten Tomatoes' audience findings were not corroborated for this season by the customer reviews on Amazon.com, which showed a substantially higher audience rating of 3.8 out of 5, as well as a higher rough 70/30 like/dislike divide within the viewership/fanbase itself. 

On the other hand, the critical review site  did corroborate Rotten Tomatoes' critical findings by quoting the equal 73% critics' rating score for the second season – against Tomatoes' 73.2% average rating – and also reported a similar viewership rating of 5.3 out of 10, with the like/dislike divide showing a rough 52/48 split, a very slight improvement over the first season. 

What both Amazon and Metacritic had in common though, was that the from season one carried over like/dislike divide remained rather sharp in all reported cases, with fans pitted against each other at either end of the spectrum with very few positioned in the middle. The what Kurtzman had hereafter called "course-correct" had not resulted in the hoped-for improvement of the series' overall perception by fans.

Exemplary of the deep fan divide was the one-minute homage clip initially made for the Apple TV+ app and also featured in a Carpool Karaoke episode (Season 2, Episode 11, 31 January 2019) in which the uniform-clad primary cast of Discovery were singing a song (adapted from a song featured in the musical Rent) on the bridge set, profusely thanking the "nerds" – "nerds" being emphasized with flashy, sing-along captions – for keeping the franchise alive for all these decades. As reactions to this presumably well-meant clip have shown, Discovery fans loved the homage, whereas the critical fans took offense, considering it a derogatory slur – and an intentional one at that, in their opinion.    The clip has not been included in any of the special features of the later released second season home video formats.

After the second season had concluded its run, showrunner Alex Kurtzman did concede the fan base split in a 17 June 2019 Deadline podcast, though he endeavored to put a positive spin on it by stating that "(...) if you are at a 50/50 split, then you're doing well. It's when you're at 90/10 then you're in real trouble." In the same podcast Kurtzman concurrently added, "I can definitely start by saying that I have, and this isn't just lip service, I actually...the fan's point of view has become necessary for me, because the fans have kept Trek alive for fifty-three years. And the internet has now made it possible for me in real time to know how people are receiving our choices and as you're writing you can suddenly course-correct you know."  In this, Kurtzman – who reiterated his stance almost ad verbatim one year later to Space.com  – distanced himself from the "Old Guard" racial/gender bias assumptions critics put forward after the conclusion of season one, but rather addressed concerns those fans had with what they perceived as canon/(Roddenberry) philosophy/continuity violations, something only a handful of critics actually touched upon,  though simultaneously maintaining that, in their opinion, white male racial/gender bigotry was still the actual root cause.   Kurtzman referred to the "course-correct" again when he made the later released remark, "We make huge moves in the [second season] finale. So both synchronize with canon and then free ourselves from it". (DIS Season 2 Blu-ray-special feature, "Putting It Together") He thereby confirmed in his closing remark that Goldsman's aforementioned "arrival" at The Original Series was definitively off the table, something that had already been implied in the  season one episode ,  which streamed two months before the second season of Discovery did.

Even though the producers had bowed in to the fan's concerns about the series, fans remained sharply divided in their opinions of the series proper as not only evidenced by the ratings and Kurtzman's concession, but also by the impromptu polls organized on several Star Trek (fan) websites, among others  on the reference website . However, fans were by and large unanimous in their praise for the Original Series characters introduction, Anson Mount's Christopher Pike in particular, which  infused the series with some, what they deemed, much needed Star Trek spirit, in no small measure due to the way Mount played the role. Kurtzman had actually implied at the end of season one that the introduction of the Original Series characters had from the very start been part of his master plan all along, when he stated in  that, "(...)the whole season was reverse-engineered knowing really at the beginning where we wanted to end,"  contridicting not only his own, later made "course-correct" statement, but also his producer collegues. Mount's Christopher Pike was so well received that at least two separate online fan petitions were organized for his very own Star Trek series, with several petition signers in their motivations to do so, preferring it to become a replacement for Discovery altogether.  

In the wake of the December 2019 "reunification" of the Star Trek film, and television franchises, reports started to surface that this option had indeed come under consideration with both CBS All Access Head of Original Content Julie McNamara and showrunner Kurtzman on record stating that "fans have been heard", though concurrently stressing that if it came to pass, as an addition to the Star Trek line-up (at the time already consisting of three more series, beyond Discovery, Short Treks, and  alone), and not as a replacement.   

Initially, the producers intended the introduction of the Original Series characters to be a temporary one, as they were signed for season two only.   It prompted Anson Mount to quip with a "#WillActForFood" hashtag on his Twitter account that he and fellow Spock performer Ethan Peck were on the job market again shortly after live-action production on season two had wrapped.  It solicited a fan outpouring in support for his own series instead of Discovery, which provided the spark for the online petitions in the first place,  as a happy aside not something Mount was likely and intentionally after when he made the humorous posting on his account – even though he was by then well aware of the favorable reception of his character (reiterating how "humbled and deeply touched by this amount of love" he was on his 14 April 2019 Facebook entry ) as the season had already premiered when he made his posting on 27 January 2019. He and Peck subsequently did reprise their roles in three late 2019 season two episodes of Short Treks (as did Una Chin-Riley performer Rebecca Romijn), all three of them taking place outside the Discovery framework, and therefore arguably conceived as preambles for a potential "Christopher Pike" series.

On , CBS formally announced , featuring all three characters, along with a video message recorded by Mount, Peck, and Romijn uploaded to social media channels, all three of them expressing their gratitude for the fan support. Aside from emphatically restating his April 2019 Facebook posting, Mount additionally stated that they were going to get "(...)to work on a classic Star Trek show, that deals with optimism and the future," indirectly referring to the perceived Roddenberry-philosophy violations in Discovery, critical fans had put forward.  

Incidentally and his favorable fan reception notwithstanding, Mount has, unlike colleague Peck, not received a single nomination for his performance in any of the hereafter mentioned actor award categories.

Awards 
Several industry award nomination announcements have followed suit in the wake of the series' second season, such as for five Saturn Awards on ,  and for four of the prestigious Emmy Awards on 16 July 2019,  in the latter case doubling its number of nominations in comparison to the first season. Other award nominations were added to the array, eventually bringing the total for the second season up to twenty-four, one more than the preceding season had garnered.

Still, having won six out of the twenty-four award nominations, including the series' first Emmy Award, it actually meant that Season 2 was in the mind of critics twice as successful than the preceding one had been – achieving a win ratio of 25% versus 13%.

The increasing number of Canadian industry awards incidentally, such as the CAFTCAD Awards which were first issued in 2020,  is indicative of the growing importance of the Canadian motion picture industry and the diminishing one of Hollywood; Discovery is entirely Canadian produced. The below-listed older Directors Guild of Canada Awards are among Canada's more prestigious motion picture awards and was won for the first time in 2019 for the franchise by Discoverys Tamara Deverell.
