About half of the stories were “meh” but the other half were actually pretty good by TOS standards.
Mind you that’s just the stories. The animation itself is definitely a limiting factor, and a lot of what happens is either very sparsely animated or they literally have characters explaining what’s happening rather than fully animating the events. A weird upside of that is that most episodes are practically radio plays, and you can just listen to the audio and understand what’s going on.

Ha! I hadn’t thought of that actually. Since some people don’t like Lower Decks I guess it works for both. Or heck all three since there are Prodigy haters too.

Bridge Officers?

I think most people just want to watch it and that’s more difficult then it should be.
digitalgadget ( @digitalgadget@kbin.social ) 4•11 months agoLower Decks is too fast paced for my older brain. I tried to get into TAS but I wasn’t identifying with the characters well.
But I ADORE Prodigy and am apalled that it got cut while we continue to run Discovery.

Stormygeddon ( @Stormygeddon@startrek.website ) English4•11 months agoStar Trek peaked with the show that I specifically watched when I was twelve years old. Everything else is too cheesy, tastless, tacky, or boring, but not the show that hooked me when I, specifically, was twelve years old. That’s a fact.
