Nah, it’s not you. Trek has changed for the worse. Sure, it’s pretty and shot well, and the actors are trying. Though the writing is modern action drama for the most part. It’s not written to be timeless. It’s not written to be intelligent first. It’s written to be “entertaining” first.
Everyone says later seasons of Picard are good, but… I just cannot. I cannot accept the universe they built. 1.5 entire seasons of shit drag it down for me. I’d take another SNW singing episode over Picard.
Academy is still continuing in the entertainment first route, but it at least seems like they’re attempting to inject a little intelligence into it. Still a bit dubious on saying it’s “good” trek, but at least it’s not corrupt trash. Or maybe the rest of the junk has just eaten away at my sensibilities.
Picard was pretty bad from start to finish, they dropped the borg alliance the moment season 2 ended. and it was obvious baity to include the “enterprise” crew in the last few episodes.
SNW or Picard… is like choosing which form of torture. How about just “no”.
I have yet to watch SNW past the point where the illogical irrational emotional vulcans first appear.
Picard, I endured the lot. Kept trying really really hard to like it, because it has Jean Luc Picard in it. Kept trying really really hard to suspend disbelief and ignore all the dumb. Kept trying to tell myself it had redeemed itself a little bit for season 3. But no. You’re right. Cannot build a sound house on such swampy sloppy ground.
It’s not trek. None of the Kurtzman dross is trek. Roddenberry spinning so fast in his grave, hook up a dynamo, and we could power a warp drive.
I do wish someone would confront the makers of the Kurtzman crap with the idea “what if all art is a tool of manifestation”, and let them face the horror of what they’ve done.
picard/patrick stewart seemed very Low energy in his acting for the whole show, like hes just not into it at all, likely hates doing trek roles by now, since had done it for along time before. wasnt kurtzman the showrunner of transformers, and he admited he dint watch any trek series, and just ignored continuity?
Picard was alot worse than snw , snw was so-so bordering on s a D+, by season 2 the writing was so bad by the end of the season.
