The problems this show deals with are pretty basic and surface level. The characters aren't complex but as usual driven by basic, human emotions despite supposedly being from other races and species.
It feels like the show tries to make every episode themed: time-travel, parallel dimension, alternate universe, hostile take-over, bla bla bla. One thing's for sure though, they didn't skimp on the visuals, because they are phenomenal!
The show does however drop you into a world that has little to no frame of reference. As somebody who knew very little about Star Trek, despite not having too many new terms thrown at you, it's not easy to keep track of which species/race they're talking about, why they're important, what technical device is being referenced, what it's supposed to do,....
On the subject of physics, they keep making the same mistake: sound in space.
All in all, it's a good series to turn your brain off to and just ignore the random terms thrown at you, don't ask too many questions about the plot, lean back, and let your brain be drizzled with Sci-Fi lite.
