@finfan ah! So glad I wasn't the only one bothered by the lens flare. It seems they feel that the lens flare is the new Trek quintessential, so they must use it everywhere, otherwise people will notice its absence and be upset about it. So moronic. It's very annoying and distracting, to say the least.
Oh! And I can never have too much Borg on my Star Trek, I just wish we'd get them in their former overpowering, ominous self instead of a stranded cube. But maybe we will...
@misnomer Since you haven't watched the complete season yet I can't say much without spoiler. But I agree the Borg were much better at the beginning.

So they really did what Picard and Guinan were talking about in Measure Of A Man.
I like the Romulan angle as they are still a race that needs to be deeper explored given how long they are around in the ST lore. Is the Zhad Vash their equivalent to Section 31 ? Not sure where this Borg stuff is leading. I thought Star Trek was too over-borged at times.
This clearly isn't the federation of old if an admiral takes they position that they should decide a race's fate. I would have love to watch a show centering around that part in history and how Picard acted at the time. But I am OK with where this is at now.
Only thing I can't stand is the Abrams hommage lens-flaring. In the conversation between the Commodore and that Lieutenant you couldn't at times see them. Why does every Star Trek show have to look like that now ?
