      Season 7 was a dumping ground for older ideas to pad it out.

      Thine Own Self

      Masks

      Genesis

      Emergence

      So much fodder.

        And yet, some will insist this was the upmost best trek against all of Nu Trek…

          A brick in a sock is better trek than any nu trek.

          lower decks and prodigy are both good. Whoevers doing the live action should hire their writers.

            I love all the New Trek. It’s by no means perfect, but I absolutely love it. It resonates with me better than TOS ever did, for example.

            TNG was great, as long as you ignored the first season and most of the last. I loved DS9 and Voyager back then, and like with TNG, I find it a bit challenging to watch these days: I struggle with all the sexism etc. permeating those series. I know it was crazy progressive back then, and we all needed to evolve as a society—yet, I still cringe at it whenever I see it, even while keeping an open mind about “how it was in the old days”. Don’t get me wrong here, I truly respect the old series, but it does feel dated.

            They attempted to rectify everything and everyone’s reputation through the new series like Picard, which I appreciate.

            I still much prefer watching reruns of new trek over the old ones. Even though I did come back to older series from time to time.
