I've taken to the term 3rd-wave Trek for the 2010s-present shows to identify the stylistic differences in production compared to shows made in the 80s-90s or 60s.

Each era is molded by the media conventions of it's time. And there I go reinventing Marshal McLuhan again: "the medium is the message"

Where do you put ENT? I say it feels very different from the not much earlier VOY but not as a wave in its own right. And while we're at it: TAS

Echoes, like when a wave hits something else and creates some dissonance.
