Pretty much the same. ENT was borderline with their war on terror phase, temporal war and some weird decisions, like introducing the Ferengi at that time… well, maybe I shouldn’t scratch the surface too much. But some of it was good enough to make it an acceptable ensemble, at least to me. I’ve never been a huge fan of the movies but ended up seeing most of them.
But it started to change with the movie in 2009. I didn’t like it but it’s ok, it’s a single movie. I thought I’d wait for the next series but they continued with this kind of movies. Then Discovery happened and I was also disappointed. I still watch reviews of the new stuff and avoid all the crap about being too woke because I know ST has always been woke, but the way the stories are now presented is not piquing my interest. I don’t mind preachy Trek, I like it, but IMHO The Orville is doing much better allegories than what modern ST produces. The new stuff seems like an attempt at being action/pop and so far, none of it seems to take place in a world/universe that I would like to know more about. I keep hoping they will fix this and have something different, but aside from LD, it’s always more of the same to me.
The last time a Star Trek project piqued my interest, it was Axanar, and the project got sued. Now with the new stories and bagage in the canon universe, I just feel like giving up on it. I was recently watching a new video about a character in Star Trek but it was featuring stuff from the new series, and I just stopped at that point. It feels like it’s not for me anymore, and I shouldn’t even bother. I’ll just keep rewatching the very same list you mentioned, adding LD, and pretend the rest doesn’t exist.
I watch TNG, DS9, VOY and ENT every 2 years roughly. TOS is just not for me. But nutrek is hot garbage.
