I think the ship sets look fairly good (baring in mind the modernized effect to today’s standard) and they finally added some much needed lighting to the set vs. DISCO.I don’t dislike this young lady as an actress. I don’t think she is a poor actress. She just doesn’t quite convincingly translate the character that Nichelle Nichols created. She does SING very well in one of the later episodes and I think may have been cast for her singing voice which Nichols as Uhura did a few times in TOS. The other caryover character Nurse Chapel is completely wrongly designed and portrayed. I know it’s difficult to translate a prequel to a 1960s sci-fi series with the availability of modern day technology—- but I still find the design of the costumes and sets a bit disturbing.
Awesome! Glad to hear you liked the later episodes, we need some half decent Trek to look forward to. I think the beasties show up again later at some point…Just wanted to continue the veer off-topic . . . as I wanted to thank those of you above that encouraged me to give this another chance. S01E03 was better than the 1st 2 episodes, and LOVED E04 even though I didn't get to see THEIR version of the (* ahem *) beasties.
However, to bring it back on topic, I'm now looking forward even more to the figure of said alien, and may now pick up the SNW version of Pike. Love that fella (and all the other characters are growing on me too).

I’m thinking the same on figures, likely most interested in Pike and Spock though La’an is starting to shine.
