I watched a review of this and the guy was talking about how he thinks the klingons really aren't the bad guys and that it's the federation that seem bad for trying to encroach upon the klingons, etc.
I've only seen one episode, so is this true?

Well, the Federation was technically at the edge of their space. The Klingons overreacted.

Yeah, I didn't know if they ended up doing anything to overstep their bounds after the first ep. Seems it is just Klingons being Klingons.
I think it was Dax on DS9 that gave a pretty accurate description of the Klingons.

The only plus point was the new Klingon ships look pretty awesome if, as typical with the new Trek stuff, over designed. Not as bad as the Narada but still pointlessly over complex
Whether that means you'll like it is another story, as it's decidedly un-Trek like.
A lot closer to Battlestar Galactica Reimagined, with all the drama and conflict. Just replace the Cylons with Klingons, Kara Thrace with Michael Burnham, Admiral Cain with Captain Lorca..

thought it was good, but yeah, not as good as ep4.
After this episode it's imo that Saru is more of a loose canon wildcard than Michael. Seems like that guy will straight up murder someone if it would benefit him. I don't know if his species has a heart, but he sure as hell doesn't listen to it.
funny thing is that i never got the impression that Stamets was gay until the part where Saru asked him if he would follow orders and the doctor guy looked at him with disappointment when he said yes... i was like, are they fcking? I laughed when it turned out they were a couple.
No wonder Saru can't even begin to understand why Michael did what she did, much less forgive her. Have to have principles outside of "Do what you're told" to relate to someone taking a stand on principles.
The way Captain Lorca operates, it makes you wonder if Saru's seeming willingness to execute widows and orphans if he felt it was necesssry to a mission is why he chose him as his first officer.

this show is just very bad.. none of these characters are relatable.. none can be rooted for. the Michael burnham character is a joke... also with the episode on sunday how is it that [SPOILER - highlight to read]: the Klingon rifle lorca used disintegrated everyone except the female Klingon????
