Cannot wait for the Captain Pike spinoff Strange New Worlds to start up.
A captain Pike spinoff? That sounds pretty awseome

Then you always have someone crying every episode which is as annoying as F*($... The show is going downhill fast...
I agree, I don't intend to insult anyone, but sometimes it's just too PC for my tastes.

Voyager the entire series 7/10 didn't feel like rating each season, finally got through all of them. It was an okay series, not nearly as good as DS9. There were probably 5-6 episodes I skipped.

I'm kind of in the minority here in that I always much preferred Voyager to DS9. I never really got the dislike for it from many corners (Not that you personally hinted at actively disliking it, but many others do) In fact it's probably my favorite Trek series now that I think about it. I started watching DS9 again last year and I got a little bored and gave up although I will go back to it at some point and I did watch them all back in the day. I like that Voyager is the most explorative of the series, I like the ship, the cast and many of the numerous races they encounter. All of the series have less good episodes and cast members etc, and Voyager is certainly no exception, but over all I find it to just be an enjoyable and entertaining ride.

I do think that a big contributor to this for me is the fact that arguably my all time favourite show is Babylon 5 and I've watched it countless times. I just feel like B5 did pretty much everything that DS9 did better than DS9 did it. Maybe that's why I never fully connected with DS9 so much as others did. I don't hate it at all, it's enjoyable enough, I just don't think it's anything overly special. When I'm watching it, I can't shake the feeling that I'd be having more fun watching B5 even though I've seen that numerous times... I quite fancy watching Voyager again now mind.


All of that said, DS9 is infinitely superior to current day Star Trek. I'd take that over Discovery or Picard all day long.

I recently watched the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and it's actually a good series. I'm on season 4 now but I would give it an 8/10. I held off for so long because I thought it would have been cheesy like the 90's show but it's dark.

How To With John Wilson - 9/10. Weird yet poignant.

I agree, unfortunately they decided to try and make Discovery and Picard these serious dramas which IMO failed... Reminds me of Stargate Universe, instead of sticking with what works they tried to be more drama oriented and that series failed also...

The only series that did a good job at going the drama route was the reboot of Battlestar Galactica...


Star Trek TNG - 8/10
Deep Space 9 - 9/10
Voyager - 8/10
Enterprise - 7/10
Discovery - 6/10
Picard - 5/10

im ashamed to say I've never seen DS9, I think I should do a marathon soon, Im only 25 or so years behind lol

I really loved TNG, and I really liked Voyager as well, not as much as TNG but I still really enjoyed it
