I loved the captain in episode one. I loved that there was a star trek that wasn't grimdark, that went back to the Picard hopefulness. I loved that there was a captain who gave more than lip service to the Prime Directive.
Then episode 2. And it wasn't a bad show, not really, I could have liked it, but I'd already fallen in love with a different show. There are ways that shift could have happened and I would have accepted or even admired it (see: Harry Potter) but I just felt annoyed. And I couldn't appreciate the show for what it was going forward.
