I haven't seen the original series, so I have nothing to compare this to. But all in all, I think it's a good show, great visual effects and lots of action. Sure, some of the acting is a bit corny, but I've seen a lot worse. If you compare this to either the newest Star Trek, which is utter garbage in my opinion, or The Orville, which is even worse, this comes out more than decent really. Netflix is doing a great job, if you ask me. I've only seen the first two episodes so far, but there wasn't a boring moment and a good sci-fi is hard to come by these days. I would highly recommend it, if you're into sci-fi.
