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...
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.
Honestly, I would put SNW s1e4 up for one of the best examples of space combat put to screen, ever.
Imo, space combat works the best when it’s either a fighter-jet situation (e.g. BSG, much of Star Wars) or “submarines, but in space” (e.g. The Wrath of Khan). This episode is the latter. And it is VERY good, for that and various other reasons.
