JJ Abrams ridiculously and incomprehensibly said on an interview that he was changing the Star Trek movies to make them for the "people who don't like Star Trek". The end result of that was the dumbing down of an intelligent thought provoking franchise, more dumb action, less brain action. That wrong thinking seems to have permeated the whole Star Trek Universe with the latest incarnation 'Discovery' being painfully unwatchable.
How strange that a show that started out as a parody of the Star Trek Universe has surpassed the last 15 years of its target and grown to join it at the top of its game.
Excellent television and an enjoyable watch.
Another great episode.
