I doubt they're "done" with any particular demo, but they've been pretty up-front about being concerned about an aging/dying fanbase, and wanting to make some stuff for younger people.
But I do think that they've been pretty good at giving each series its own time and vibe, so hopefully something down the road will appeal to you if this doesn't.
I mean, on the plus side, Klingons look'ish like Klingons again. ๐ (Which I know isn't exactly true, but Worf said enough on this topic in DS9 (YT clip))
PS I remember laughing so hard when I first saw this scene. ๐
There are a bunch of the perennial brigading naysayers on other platforms already venting that this young Klingon is too skinny/lanky.
Seems that they never saw Tony Todd as Kurn or considered that TALL is an important Klingon physical characteristic.
