[QUOTE="Jester David, post: 7562421, member: 37579"] I'm enjoying this season a lot more than the first. The premier was rocky. But Pike was amazing and it seemed to go out of its way to address complaints people had with the series: acknowledging the different uniforms, a focus on saving lives and morality, and giving the bridge crew names. It did suffer from over use of CGI. This show has a budget and really, really wants you to know. The asteroid race went on three times too long and the turpolift shot was hilariously bad. And the exploding cargo bay was over the top. But, generally, it felt like the show was trying to say they listened to the fans and heard their complaints and concerns. And that second episode was excellent. The Prime Directive and an away team. A bridge officer gets backstory and a purpose. A heroic move from Pike. People obeying orders they disagree with. All gold. The third episode was okay. It really focused on the fallout of last season, which made it awkward to watch with my wife who skipped season one after the pilot. And who HATES the new look of the Klingons. This wasn't as bad. The new Klingon design works so very, very much more with hair. But the bald ones are still ridiculous and look like the malformed offspring of a Klingon and a Xenomorph. This episode had its own problems with the crazy cameras. It felt like someone got a new crane or camera hoist and wanted to use it for every single transition. Ick. The fourth episode... decent. Too much too fast to really get a feel for the scale of the problem. But the new engineer killed it every scene. Given how many shock/twist deaths we had the first season, I did wonder if they were going to kill Saru. d [/QUOTE]
