With Discovery now mid-season, here are my thoughts.
- I'm still not sure whether it lives up to the Star Trek name. There's been not much mystery, exploration or feeling of wonder which I think is the staple of Star Trek. Even the social/ethical commentary feels forced. I was looking forward to the optimism, the technological wonders, and the inevitable reflection of the strengths and weaknesses of our society in microcosm yet again, but feel underwhelmed so far.
- The characters are not memorable and I don't feel a connection with them yet.
