StarTrek Strange New Worlds, Season 3 Episode 7...I love StarTrek but found this latest episode unwatchable...

6. I genuinely tried with Discovery.

Waking through the DVD section at Walmart or wherever I saw it on sale, and eager to see new Star Trek and not having CBS All Access /Paramount+, I saw it as my chance to watch it. By the fifth or sixth episode, though, I gave up and put it away. A year or so went by when I stumbled across it and thought that maybe I hadn't given it a fair chance, so I started watching again. I made it to about the same point and reached the conclusion that I didn't care about any of these people or what happened to them, so I was wasting my time.

Picard was a continuation of TNG, so I was in from the start and gave it a longer "leash," but man, did it suck. Finally, by season three, they got their shit together just in time to at least end it properly.

What will be Strange New Worlds' ultimate fate remains to be seen, but I am not optimistic.
