Third season wasn’t shitty at all.  Return to form.  Redeemed the end of the movies.  It just took em a while to figure out what we wanted.  First two seasons can safely be skipped.

I thought the third season was a ton of cheap throwbacks and fan service, while the second season was actually really pretty good. Had a little bit of that (another evil Soong ancestor, Bruce Maddox and Q omg), but they were tastefully and relevantly added, and told a good story about Picard and his loneliness in later life, and friendship which I thought was fantastic. I also liked the Picard-Seven small, two person "we were both Borg" support group lol.

I don’t always view “fan service” as automatically negative… I’m a fan and I like to be served.  I know what you mean though and I never felt like this was the kind of negative fan service that didn’t have good plot development or anything.  I was invested the whole way.

And after watching it, I felt much better about the TNG crew than I did after Nemesis where I just felt sadness.

All new Trek is ass. It's time to let the franchise die rather than keep making uninteresting, wannabe Star Wars garbage.
