Action was fantastic, but writing decisions like Burnham and Book opting to talk about their relationship rather than pursue an escaping target are still phenomenally bad. If the characters spent more time on task rather than discussing their feelings with each other, the show might resonate with Trekkies a lot more and not be facing its final season.
Star Trek: Voyager had the right kind of interconnectedness for a Starfleet crew treating each other as a family. I'm not the sort to think it's impossible to improve on a concept, but I don't know why the idea that mixing Dawson's Creek into Star Trek is the way to go continues to find traction in the writer's room.
