    It’s closer to Old Trek. But in the last episode of S1

    spoiler

    where they take original TOS dialog for parts and mix it with modern dialog - man you really see the difference. Love it or hate it, the TOS dialog feels a lot more martial and IMO fits way better with having ranks on a ship.

    There’s good stuff in it, but they also seem to really have a problem making any non-quippy character, to the extent that I actually think it affects characterization. To that end, Ortegas still

    spoiler

    isn’t that well fleshed out IMHO even with the last episode being 1/3 about her. I think earlier Trek played tricks to make characters feel more different, but those worked.

    Spock is certainly “in between” The Cage and TOS, but I think they’re going to have to re-do something like Kohlinar to explain his change in the last episode of SNW.

    It’s reasonably good, but significantly different too.

      Your spoiler tags are not working correctly on my end, could be connect idk. But its just trying to resemble old trek. I don’t think it is trying to be a 1 for 1. I’ll take the delivery format over Discovery. We get episodes to focus on each character, we aren’t constantly drained by chasing some seasonal baddie. Its nice.
