I just wanted to say I really enjoyed the first episode. Good pacing, good drama, and Giamatti was great. Lots of great callbacks, and it avoided a lot of “drama for the sake of drama”.

I do want to complain about the guy freezing in space. That’s not how space works. :) Also, I can’t see a shuttle losing control just because the passengers shifted around a bit.

Ultimately those are minor quibbles and I’ve put up with much worse Trek plot-driven engineering failures! :D
