Highly recommend lower decks (try getting through the first few eps though, it does take a little to find its legs). I am also not a fan of Discovery and Picard. Strange New Worlds is okay, a few really strong eps (i do adore the design work though, I’m very happy with the original series era being modernized like this)
I watched the first season of Lower Decks, and… it didn’t really clicked. It’s just waaaay too fast paced (and goofy) for Star Trek to me - tho the cartoon itself is good.
With Picard, I checked 2 or 3 eps of it, but honestly I’m not sure I really wanna continue. (Tho I don’t want to punish my gf by skipping them since Star Trek is our daily thing, so I might watch it) and Strange New Worlds is something that awaits. I’ve heard good things about that one so not all hopes lost for me 😅
The thing that really puts a Star Trek show over the top is the chemistry between the crew, and SNW has that in spades. Pike is now my favorite captain.
Pike is the ultimate Starfleet captain, which is crazy.
TNG’s chemistry was all over the place for the first 3 seasons, after TBOTW they locked it down perfectly, Enterprise’s too actually. DS9 nailed the chemistry best till SNW imho, LD too I guess.

Snw is personally amazing, it’s an attempt to rebirth trek from scratch. It’s not ds9 or the best of tng, but pike really nails it so you don’t care.
Picard season 3 is solid, especially the first half, otherwise don’t bother with s1 and s2.

This is addressed in an episode. I won’t say which episode or series because it’s a spoiler but it is addressed.
ah, good to know
