This gave me a good chuckle. Lol. But I’m part of the problem. The only “new Trek” that I look forward to and enjoy anymore is LD and SNW, but I still think it’s absurd to pull Prodigy from Paramount+ when they have all other Trek.
I wasn’t especially a fan of Prodigy, but I know people who were. And, let’s be honest, it’s still better than Disco or Picard.
Thanks lol. Yeah I really tried to like Picard but it was just too difficult, especially with the third season.
I’m looking forward to the new Lower Decks and I still have to check out SNW but that’s been renewed. Unless they kill it the same way as Prodigy…
I’m right there with you, except that I can’t even bring myself to watch DIS or PIC. As soon as it became clear how much those shows were being produced like the movies I lost interest. It’s not what I want from Trek. And I subsequently waited a good while to check out LD, but that was a mistake. I absolutely love it. It’s the perfect combination of classic Trek optimism, loveable characters, and comedy. And they honestly even get fan-service right, which I didn’t think was possible (though it does make sense that it would be in a semi-parody).
As with all things Trek, SNW has its detractors and its promoters, but I find it highly enjoyable. It isn’t quite classic Trek—and it isn’t perfect—but it’s just so much fun. It’s the first live action show where the love for the universe shines through the bleak empty promotional garbage.
I’ve loved the character development. There have been episodes that changed my mind about certain people, gave me real horror vibes that could rival Alien itself, and some heartbreaking moments. Just don’t expect Kirk to feel like Kirk yet. He’s still developing, and so is the actor, but it shows promise.
