Welcome to a Star Trek community where you’re free to chat and share your opinions about all things Trek!

I want to have a place where fans can come to praise, discuss, and even criticise things in the Star Trek franchise. No show or movie is perfect, and I don't believe people should be silenced for having a dissenting opinion. That being said, there are still a few rules.

Be Nice - No personal attacks. You can disagree with someone's opinion, but it needs to stop there.

No Slurs - This is applicable to ethnicity, religion, gender, or anything else.

No Adult Content - Keep it family friendly.

No Spamming or Trolling - Consistently spamming comments or trolling is just not needed.

Please keep topics Trek related or Trek adjacent for the most part, and have fun!

Nearly all the things you mention are issues I have with both Discovery and Picard! The storylines of the seasons I watched didn't really grab me to begin with, and then dragged on way longer than needed. I'm not that big a fan of the 10 or 15 hour movie idea, but it's even worse when there isn't enough story.

Picard suffered from the same thing for sure. Too much time telling too little story. Somehow it felt both rushed and drawn out. I still enjoyed Picard for all the fan service and old characters, but it was definitely in spite of the overall structure of the show.
