MODERATORS
I agree SNW is just OK, I loved season 1 but so far I'm finding season 2 a bit of a let down.
However, I found season 3 of Picard to be the best Trek in a long time, better than all the new shows and new movies. Sure it was massive fan service banking on nostalgia, when Picard was announced I was all in for a new look at an older Picard but after the steaming turd they delivered for 2 seasons it was a nice send off for the original crew while keeping that time period open for more Trek.
Yes, I would agree that season 3 of Picard was the best but that's more of a criticism of the first two seasons (mostly the second). The problem with it that it was almost exclusively nostalgia. The main idea that the Borg biologically manipulated Picard and made a comeback that way was not bad, but the details of the story were a hot mess.
I say Lower Decks is the best of recent Trek.
