Just once I'd like a post where everyone is chill and positive about stuff instead of focusing on negative

Edit: I dunno why I expect people to ever be capable of being positive anymore. Dunno why I bother.

Yeah I think their insistence on a low episode serial format is a huge part of the problem. DS9 is a great example of how narrative storytelling can work in Star Trek, but it only came after they did years of character development and world building.

I think SNW S2 has done a good job taking a step back and just having individual episodes that let the setting and character grow. "Under the Cloak of War" was one of the best Trek episodes of all time.

Yes, Strange New Worlds is the best new Star Trek imo
