I've been catching up on STD and now that I'm 3 or 4 episodes in I have formed some opinions.
*BOP was correct, these new Klingons suck. I don't like they way they look, they appear to be speaking a different language than the Klingon in everything else, their behavior is very different and it sounds like they have socks in their mouths.
*The whole show feels very low budget. It's like they have 2 or 3 sound stage setups plus some CGI.
*Without trying to reveal spoilers too much, it's starting to look like they stole some ideas from Dune - tech that is not and should not be part of the Start Trek universe. It just doesn't fit.
*Finally, it just doesn't feel like Star Trek. I kinda think the show would be better off not being Star Trek at all. Change the names of the Klingons and Star Fleet and the Federation, change the exterior look of the ships, and you have a completely new show.
