This is my not-safe-for-Reddit opinion but I thought the S1 Klingons were great, interesting and impressive.
I really liked the addition to canon that the Kligon Empire is experiencing the tail and of a very long fall from grace. It explains a lot about how such a violent fuedal society could have science on par with the Federation.
I didn’t like just about everything else Discovery Klingon’s screen time. They were just so wearying to watch. They felt like some exhausting loud neighbors I have had.

It turns out the real 'merica was the Klingons we met along the way.
… the removal of the hair, having done hairless Klingons with J.J.’s films. So I’d personally already gone through the Internet backlash, and so when Bryan said, ‘Yeah, we’re going to do bald Klingons, like it’s gonna be tricky, man.’ And so everyone was salting the broth.
Sometimes you just gotta keep making the same mistake until you learn. At least this guy is humble and practical about it.
