I've yet to watch (i.e. I never will) Lower Decks but after that last SNW with Uhura hearing ghosts, following on from Spock being human, coming after alternate-dimension Kirk…I think I'm close to being done now Dazed

I'm not against LD existing, I think that it could be a fun little venture to explore if the rest of Trek wasn't so messed up just now.
But on point of principle Trek died with Trip and a nice comedy was made later with Eric Bana to pay respect to the franchise

I couldn't tell you about STD. I did season 2 of it hoping that, like TNG, the first season was just finding its feet but nope - it shat on Trek even heavier than it did prior.
A shame because the actors are all decent and the set design was good, but it's always about the writing for me and there was none of that which was Trek
Voyager is the weakest of the core Trek components for me as its writing was discombobulated around what particular characters would do in any given situation.
DS9 was probably the best run of the core story wise, there's a few flaws there still but overall the writers did some grandstanding in a very impressive way
Sorry about mentioning Trip, some fans have him still alive and married to T'Pol though so I'll stick with that version of events and consider the holodeck program covering for Section 31 origins for Riker and Troi

All the usual tub-thumpers say that S3 is good and that it's changes who writes and directs it but as far as I'm concerned to get to it requires enough to not bother with.
Which saddens me immensely as, like many others, I have lots of memories which have Trek integrated into them here and there and I hold them dearly and won't have them sullied any further.
Shame, but all good things…
