come on, give the boys a break, he had no say in the writing, he isnt a good actor and you cant blame the boy for the "man" he became.

The real Star Trek canon is everything up until the end of Enterprise.

ENT does explain stuff like how the Klingons of TOS are different from those in the 80s movies as well as TNG and the other 90s series.

(STD doesn't really explain the insectoid "Make America Great Again Remain Klingon" Klingons, doesn't it?)

After that it's pure Bad Robot nonsense for the sake of moichandising.

Is that why Current Year Star Trek is stuck remaking and remaking the TOS era: cashing in on the nostalgia of TOS?
 
I can't believe I've gone my entire life without seeing Star Trek - well I tried watching Discovery but it was shit. I've recently been watching the original series, and WOW what I've been missing out on, it's brilliant!

Yep. There's a reason why the next spin-off is focused only on Picard.

Haven't TNG and the movies explored his character enough already -- especially the Tapestry episode?

This new spin-off is probably going to disregard canon too.

Like @Miller said, it would've been better if the series ended with the final episode of ENT, rather than devolving into Current Year Star Trek.

It would've been such a nice ending too.

"Back in January, Kurtzman described the show as one featuring younger characters who haven’t yet “decided who they are,” rather than “fully-formed adults already in Starfleet,” as a way to “reach younger kids” in a way previous Trek shows hadn’t specifically targeted.'

You know what I watched as a "younger kid"?
TOS. And later TNG, DS9, and even Voyager.
 
NuAlara is a real cunt. Poor Klyden gets so much shit in this show just for being a good Moclan.

After seven episodes of relationship drama, looks like they might do something science fictioney next week.

 
Still working my way through TNG and I'm about halfway through Season 3.

I have to say, all this Star Trek binging I've been doing has really made me pine for more standalone episodes again.

Too many shows are worried about the season long story arcs (Marvel Netflix shows, I'm looking at you), but I'm finding myself really enjoying the episodes that tell a complete story. A beginning, a middle, and a satisfying ending.

I guess I've always been that way. When I watched X Files back in the day, I always liked the "Monster of the Week" episodes way more than the ones that dealt with the alien conspiracy, which got so increasingly convoluted, that I just stopped caring.

Same. I am still in shock how much of a quality jump TNG had from S2 to S3. It's probably the most dramatic turn around I've seen of any show.
