If it's any consolation, I'm watching it right now, it's being pronounced "Shen-joe" in series.
Akima:
Yay, it is! Props to the team for that. They do have Michelle Yeoh to help them get it right, of course.
Edit: Removed unnecessary quotation.

She also doesn't change her accent for this role, and, according to Wikipedia, "Yeoh also chose her own decorations for Georgiou's ready room, including Malaysian puppets and a bottle of Chateau Picard wine".
LeeC:
How are you liking it hedgie?
hedgie:
So far so good. I have seen the first two episodes, and am awaiting the next one. My only gripe is that they had to redesign the klingons yet again (not really a spoiler since it's in the first 10 seconds). However, the way things are now, I think that no matter how good it is, the show is doomed. The release model of streaming-only on CBS's own service rather than one of the big three basically ensures that most won't watch, and the vast majority of those who do will torrent it rather than pay for another subscription.
