A few thoughts...

  • The Klingons look MUCH better.
  • Some nice nods to other Trek continuity, like Boreth and the introduction of a classic D7 cruiser. One of the background Klingons even had a House of Mogh emblem on their clothes.
  • This was probably the most "season 1-esque" episode of this new season. It tried to fit too much in and as a result there was very little room for character. Pike, Saru and Stamets barely got a look in. Even Tilly's plot felt far too rushed.
  • The camera didn't stop moving and it was a bit exhausting.
  • The Spock/Burnham plot devolved far much into "tell-don't-show". We need to be more engaged with this story and that doesn't happen by having characters just talking about it for a long time. Before this episode I WAS very engaged with it, so it's a shame it slowed down so much here.
  • Tyler/Voq has become a far more interesting character.
  • Very much enjoyed the return of Georgiou.
