I like it for the most part but I have a few nitpicks. First off is the violence: there is at least someone getting murdered EVERY episode. I know there is a YouTuber whom is keeping count and I believe it’s over 30 so far...
Also this feels too dystopian for Star Trek. Too dark and gritty. I prefer my Trek (to quote Gene Roddenberry) to be “a positive vision of the future”. This show (and Disco) feels more a kin to ‘Blade Runner’ than it does Star Trek.
And my last big nit pick is the profanity. Just because you can swear (on CBS All Access) does not mean you should.
But other than that I’m enjoying seeing “JL” back in the saddle.
