So this episode was a close miss for me, it’s like it had the framework to be a good episode but they just didn’t finish it up correctly.

so this episode...

The whole debate thing with Jay-Den saying Klingons must be Klingons, yeah duh, everyone knows that, weak! And the thing with the fake battle, really no one else thought of it? Honestly ST always had problems portraying Klingons consistently, they usually make them appear so dumb you wonder how they can manage to keep their fricking starships operational. Speaking of inconsistency, Darem was introduced in E01 being an asshole for no reason, then five minutes after changed completely, now he’s even a wannabe-counsellor? I’m all for character growth, but there was none, it was more like character switch.
Loved the quote from The Drumhead, loved hearing the Klingon theme once again, I would have loved to hear it a bit longer. Picardo is killing it as usual.

So, I’m seeing a slight improvement. I’m still hopeful this show can sediment into something good. I’m worried how they seem to have picked a protagonist once again, a thing I hated from Discovery.
