I recently saw Star Trek Picard, the first season was okey, season 2 was awful, the season 3 was nice.

Acording some critics last Discovery season is bad, so now I’m afraid of looking a series who has a bad ending, it worth to watch or is as painful as Picard Season 2? Or I should watch Strange New Worlds and Enterprise instead?

    Don’t listen to the critics on the internet. If you’re not dying soon, watch it all. It’s Trek. It’s roughly 60% great, 30% mediocre to aged poorly, and 10% let’s never talk about it again.

    I would go in rough order of release because they do like harkening back to stuff. Actually rewatching TOS will be good for SNW. And Disco S2 is its backdoor pilot.

        Watch Lower Decks. Not because it is itself part of that 10% – it’s the best new Trek there is! – but because it talks more about it. Technobabble, giant Spock, lizards, it’s all there. Even random toy tie-in schlock:

          I feel we talk of the bad episodes way more than the good ones. It’s more entertaining.
