The writing and direction (the actors were fine!) Of the Kelvin trilogy kinda ruined Trek for me. I refused to give any of the new series a chance. But Lower Decks is reviving my interest. Think I might give Strange New World's a look soon.
I know what you mean though. It's been so long since we had a good series.
I like Strange New Worlds and Lower Decks but frankly Discovery can get lost. Oh it's dark and gritty and special magic flying mushroom aliens that kind of break the setting because they can basically teleport you anywhere, they just ruined the canon. Also it's set in the past why is it set in the past? The show doesn't need to be in that time. So they could have set it in the future and actually done something interesting with the franchise.
To me it is clear they didn't want to make a Star Trek show, so why did they slap the franchise name on it? It would have been fine if they just made an original show.
But that's what they did with season 3 and later?
