Hate the way it’s being put out, but I do like the series so far. Of course I love Patrick Stewart, and ever sense reading Diane Duane’s Rihannsu books, I’m a rabid fan of Romulans, so this series was practically made for me.
That being said, I feel this show is, so far, overtly political in a way that I don’t feel Trek has been for a long time. Even in just the first episode you can see allegories to racism following terrorist attacks, refugee crises, the obligations of providing aid to foreign powers, etc. I’m really interested to see where they do with it.
