Personally episode seven was the one that made me realise I won't be watching the second series, much and all as I enjoy the first. How do you turn discreet source material into an ongoing series, as long as the ratings decide? By added potboiler elements.
I'm not saying that the episode itself wasn't good, it was, but how it points at what they are doing with the narrative is a problem for me. I have increasingly found myself enjoying a series but declining to partake in the second or subsequent iterations. I'm rediscovering films as more satisfying. Plus, even with the bloat that modern cinema has (you're paying cash so your arse will get sore and your bladder tested) they are still shorter than multiple series.

It's not complete trash so far which makes it better than the new movies.
Not quite sure why they've retconned the Klingons to look like space lizards though.
From what I've heard the Orville is meant to be better, but that's not out over here yet.
