I absolutely loved it!
I also found it annoying that Sarek mentioned a new star, and the ethics conversation with the computer... But they were minor issues that I'm willing to overlook.
I really only wanted this star trek to address current social issues in a thoughtful way. I think they have found a great vehicle to talk about the rise of Trump politics through the conflict with the Klingon supremacists and the multi species federation. (Loved the dialogue from the Klingons regarding the threat that the federation posed to Klingon culture and individuality)
I also love how they introduced us to the main character with the first two episodes before introducing us to even the title starship! Now we can get acquainted with the new ship and crew at the same time as the familiar main character.
The Klingons were the worst part of star trek because I didn't think they were all that believable or perhaps just too lazily put together... But these Klingons are much more believable so far. They have put in the right motivations and background to make them an interesting addition to the show.
I didn't think I could expect this from star trek again, but now I cannot wait to see where this show goes!
