I started watching Strange New Worlds the other week, I’ve really enjoyed the writing! The only other Trek media I’ve seen were the Abrams movies, which were okay I guess. I understand Strange New Worlds is a prequel to the original series, is it worth it to watch the original series after I finish it? Are there any series to avoid?


That’s something to decide after watching them all. Yes, even TAS.
Yes I’m planning on watching most if not all of them! I just didn’t want to miss self-references and want to understand the good bits to laugh at the bits that aren’t so good (happens with any long-running show)
There’s a few movies I’d avoid, like Section 31.
That crap actually got made?
Yes. It’s…not great.
Star trek hasn’t been great since after ST: ENTERPRISE, and that is a great understatement
Try “The Orville”, made by huge star trek fan Seth McFarlane (family guy creator) its the closest thing to TNG for the 2020s that I’ve seen and its awesome
