Not as good the second time, sometimes very bad. Michael is not the protagonist. It is a bad women empowerment template covered with endless bouts of crying and clichéd outbursts. Is Spock supposed to learn from her? Come on! The climax of helplessness is the episode where a character dies, whose role until then was about as important as the role of the handsome bangs of Captain Pike. But for some reason, during the work in question, the creators remembered that they neglected it a lot, so they try to build the impression of loss – through screaming and a lot of ostentatious phrases. Few characters here work on a different principle than the irritating tension between predominance and annoying mischief. Exceptions: (sometimes) Pike, Spock, the badass Chinese MILF and the useless grandmother played perfectly by Tig Notaro. The showrunners should be required to watch an Expanse marathon to see how realistic sci-fi is done. The battles are still nice, there are ideas here, but with all the attempts to update the Star Trek mythology, it still seems like the unruly Janek of the Stars. ()
