Watched the 3rd episode of this and while it's a different show and surely darker than Trek has ever been, it keeps that theme in line with the movies which were that way (and I dubbed 2 Fast 2 Trek) but the show while VERY different than anything we've seen...is surely not as bad as Enterprise was.

Star Trek has never had a budget to do the kinds of effects they're doing on this version and has never had to be designed to respond to modern audiences and so, that's what they've done with it. It's got the feel of the movies rather than a TV show.

I don't like it really, but I think what they've done with the whole thing is interesting and I've conceded a while ago -- with all of the movies -- that I'll take "Trek modernized" over "no Trek" because it's not the 80s anymore and talkie Shakespearean Trek wouldn't last especially long in today's tv environment besides nostalgia.

I'll keep seeing how it evolves.
