This is what makes me like sci fi. It seems that as CGI effects became more accessible, people started leaning into them instead of focusing on the actual science fiction ideas. Very few modern shows attempt to tackle social or philosophical issues in a nuanced way. Part of that is certainly a turn towards large overarching stories and the abandonment of an episodic format.

As you can probably guess from the above, I bounced off the newer Trek pretty hard.

It certainly had some good moments!

I agree that was a nice conclusion.

The OG run is one of my favorite shows of all time.

I know it won’t be that good but I have some hope.

I do worry a little because of how topical all the humor is. I don’t personally like that late-Futurama style as much.
