This season's first two episodes were enjoyable enough but this one was pretty boring. A lot of the show's issues are evident here.
The plot holes, for example. Bookham conjured their phasers and didn't really use them and yet the creatures knew they were dangerous? And those creatures were dreadful.
And the relationship stories. We've been expected to care about Burnham and Book's relationship and Grey and Adira's relationship without really showing us why. So it's hard to feel anything there.
I'm so struck by the incredible amount of insubordination being shown in this episode. The new Number 1 (who is 100% unlikeable) is insubordinate to Burnham and Tilly is insubordinate to him in return. Picard would've never stood for any of this lol
