I started with Star Trek after watching the Star Trek (2009) movie in college. After that I went wild watching everything I could since I was young with loads of time. I watched most of TOS, all of TNS, all of DS9, all of Voyager, all of Enterprise and all of the movies. I then stopped since I didn’t have the time and wasn’t ready to download a new app to watch Discovery.

I am interested in watching some of the new shows from Discovery onwards but don’t know where to start and what are worth watching. I no longer have hours to watch TV or movies anymore and want to prioritize series on an easy to find streaming service. What is worth watching and what is worth skipping? Is it worth while to watch them all the way chronically or just watch one series and then another one.

      I disagree completely. It definitely was Star Trek, and was independently a good show. It just abandoned the typical episodic story containing trope that Star Trek uses in lieu of the more modern season-long plot. Its definitely not for everyone, but the only times I thought it was lacking was when it tried to appease those that like the more episodic path which came off as filler (alternate dimension episodes).
