As a great lover of the (original) Star Trek, I am very interested to know how this new program is going.

Poor script...Bad acting....
Sounds like there is room for improvement.

I thought this first episode came to a dead stop whenever the Klingons were speaking. The Klingons were both grotesque and boring, a bad combination. But I liked most of the rest of it. And the whole jetpack "Spock Walk" scene was the coolest thing Star Trek has done in a LONG time. Sadly, the rest of it is behind a paywall, so I'm out.

What does "behind a paywall" mean?
Anyway, the Klingons were the worst part, which is not good given that it appears the entire season will involve them. The Klingons again? This is the retro element I'm talking about. Can't Star Trek evolve beyond this? For a franchise that invented the Vulcans, too much of ST is amazingly illogical, and among the most illogical is the Klingons. They are a silly concept, something akin to pulp SF like Flash Gordon's Ming the Merciless. The Klingons should have been abandoned right after they first appeared in TOS. In "Errand of Mercy" that creatures that were "pure energy" were far more interesting.
I like Star Trek, but what I don't like about the franchise is how it keeps chasing its own tail.
