The klingon redesign pissed everyone off, myself included. They toned it back significantly in season 2 and the Klingons aren't as in the forefront as they are in season 2 so it's less noticeable.
I felt compelled to pause the show about ten seconds after they appeared just to go see if it was just me having a wtf moment.
I'm glad they at least listened to viewers at least.
(Not that it is a bad design for alien creatures and their ships... in isolation)
I seems to be in a minority that liked it.
Is everyone just ignoring the forehead thing that Klingons don't tak about?
Honestly I always considered the fist (IIRC) season of DSC to be deliberate Klingon fan service: Hours-long dialogue in Klingon, tons of warrior honour culture (and its conflict with federation ideals) and people are complaining about... hair? WTF?
