Is this show actually good or is it just normie shit that makes dumb people feel smart?

if you can make it through the first season and a half or so it's some of the best television ever aired.

Comfy as fuck.

It's a bunch of lads scooting around space having fun together.The best show.

i'm rewatching it all now for the 2000000000th time, you probably won't like it if you look at it through modern eyes. you might think a lot of episodes are cheesy.
>>
>>68162231

And the first season isn't that terrible, it's just the worst season. It's just okay. You'll wonder why everyone says TNG is so great, but it's not too awful.

The first two seasons are the best seasons. They explore the best most interesting science fiction ideas. After that the show becomes a character-focused soap opera.

I'm cautiously optimistic about the new series. I'm not sure what direction they will go in. Will they stick to the episodic nature of most of the franchise or try to be like modern shows and focus on story and character arks

Probably the latter.

The DS9 hate is warranted on an episode specific level, but if you can get into it, the reward is very high considering they actually open up multiple storylines and tie them into each other intensely by Season 5.

Take for instance the ongoing Eddington, Changeling infiltration, Cardassian / Dominion behind the scenes in cahoots, the awesome two parter on the Jem'Hadar asteroid, and a few others.

Basically, it became an every week we're getting storylines fed to us that we just barely forgot about or in most cases have been on the edge of our seats to find out more from..

The black captain bothers me less than his acting in the first 3-4 seasons before he piped down that stupid over enunciation shit.
>>
ds9 is easily the best trek but tng isnt far behind, stewart is fantastic and spiner did a great job too but ds9 just has too many good characters and just feels better written in general

it also helps that there is an overarching plot throughout almost the whole show instead of tng's problem of the week formula

heres hoping the new show isnt a pile of shit like voy & ent were

all star treks are rewarding if you invest enough time in them

still does not put DS9 at the same level as TOS or TNG which objectively had:

>better more likable characters
>deeper character interactions without becoming the "soap opera in space" about 1/2 of DS9 episodes are
>better plot lines
>more memorable villains and challenges
>better acting
>less shit tier characters (jake and friends trump Wesley all day)
>less filler crap

the list has always and will always be

TOS=TNG>DS9>Voyager=Enterprise>jew jew abraham movies

TNG and DS9 were great because they were first-run syndication, so the writers were free to go in whatever direction they wanted.

VOY and ENT were troubled because they were tied to a network, so the writers had to kowtow to the demands of the meddling network executives.

Star Trek 2017 is tied to a network.

I'm worried.

Neelix was actually one of the best Trek characters, very layered and full of nuance and depth, people just don't like him because of his appearance. He's a far better character than Scotty or either Dax, but he looks like a space hedgehog wearing 80s pastels.

You can tell whether someone really pays attention to Star Trek when they give you their opinion on Neelix

He's not the worst on Voyager (that honor goes to Harry Kim), but he certainly isn't the best. Voyager in general has been a bit of a struggle for me. I'm only on season 4 and Kes finally died so hopefully he'll improve as a character without her.

i think tng was a great base. ds9 takes it even better. voyager disappointed, and enterprise killed it. what should happen in a proper/actual resurrection show within this universe?

i think it needs to be ship based. but it can't be enterprise, or voyager, or something lost. it needs to be a ship out there but not lost.

jj shit doesnt care about the typical universe. they will reboot everything with teenagers. what can we do a preserve the tng-voy timeline and continue it, rather than reboot or ignore it?
