I am quite enjoying it so far, to be honest. The completist in me would slog through the first season even if I didn't enjoy it though.
Keep in mind, though I've been immersed in sci-fi all my life and I've definitely seen Star Trek shows before (and all the pre-Abrams movies), but my expectations to this show are largely set by pop culture.
Relative to those expectations, I was really surprised not far into the first episode by how thought-provoking it is. The character of Q was about t as far from (my expectation of) a Star Trek 'villain' as I could have imagined.
I love season 1, personally. It does get objectively better, but s1 and 2 have some fun episodes.
