The problem with this show lies not within its stories. The little adventures themselves are thought out well and connect to the bigger plot in some way somehow. The unforgivable problem with this show is the appalling characters with their ridiculous haircuts, the dumb and dumber dialogues they are having, poor decision making of said characters, and finally, the "modern" special effects boring the hell out of anyone who has seen two or more popular sci-fi movies. Complete with useless CGI zoom ins, asteroid dodging space vehicle race, disregard for thermodynamics, gravity, biology, common sense or simple logic. Just pretty moving pictures straight from the PC of some overworked and over-payed dude with no imagination of his own insulting the intelligence of the viewer. By the way, nice harem the captain of this universe has going for him, the first time he steps on his bridge not a single man in sight. Which does not reduce the quality of this show to trash of course, the poor writing achieves that on its own just fine.

This series took until near the end of season one to get ahold of me.... Once it did (get ahold of me) I was hooked! The characters are well put together (even Spock) and the stores get better and better with each new one. The only exception to this, was S02E09, which is one of the infamous 'singing' themes. Yes, you heard me. So many TV shows have done a singing episode... and they rarely work (for me). With the exception of the Buffy The Vampire Slayer episode titled; One More Time With Feeling. That was a brilliant singing episode. The last episode of season 2 is a Cliff hanger, unfortunately. So we have a LONG wait to see the conclusion. Let's hpe they renew it for a season 3 :O)

The only thing strange about this series is the notion its radically different from Picard and Discovery. As far as I'm aware it utilises essentially the same team, who created the other "new Trek" shows. In my opinion, its writing is mediocre, full of plot holes and predictably woke. Sure, the political correctness has been toned down but it's still there, in all its fussy, lecturing, needy, simpering glory. I tried one episode and that was more than enough for me to walk away. To my mind, this is original Star Trek "dress up" devoid of the quality story telling, wit and honest charm, that made the original series a sci fi cult classic. Sorry but this "aint Jim Kirk" or anything even close......
