I didn't think the motion picture was all that bad.  It wasn't stellar  ( pun intended ) but was still ok.  And when one considers when it came out too.  it was a LONG time ago.  

I'm still miffed about Discovery, it COULD have been a great thing, but no..  woke culture had to ruin any chance of that.  If they had set it in an alternative universe to keep the inconsistencies at bay, kept the captain, who i thought had promise and was doing a good job, didn't have that weirdo woman at all... I suffered thru season one, kept hoping for it to get better. Season 2 EP1.. i didn't even make it thru. Insulting Spock? No. F-no.  Tho there was that one in season 3 or 4, ( had not been watching but thought id give it a chance.. see if they fixed it ) where the woman was 'lost' and not around until the very end. It was actually ok.  Again, not great, but i didn't want to toss stuff at my TV either with her missing and i had hope..... until the end when she reappeared..   nope. big nope..

I tried watching the new series, but after a couple of episodes i lost interest. It wasn't 'bad' just as i mentioned before, just didn't do it for me and it seemed like they were trying too hard.  I guess it was for the best, while there were aq couple of decent ( but not great ) ones i missed, i heard it went south soon after.  And today, i see Bowlestrek came out with his review of the last episode..  Its almost unbelievable the garbage they produced. But, really nothing from Hollywood should surprise me. 

TLDR: they turned the enterprise into the Muppet show, which didn't deserve to be degraded like this.

( only consolation is as these shows die, we get videos from him. i like watching him, well i guess technically listening, you never see him )

I've seen the outrage about the muppet Star Trek episode - and I've seen rebuttals that say, "Captain Kirk was getting baskets of tribbles dumped on him, they did Captain Kirk on a Gangster planet, a Nazi planet... all kinds of crazy shit - and you're upset about MUPPETS? 

I don't know how I feel. I haven't seen it. Spock remains right? It sounds crazy. But it might be a step too far. 

My wife says I have to come to bed. *shrug*... I wanted to listen to Metallica and hang out with you guys this weekend - but I have to take the path of domestic peace. I got this far, this time. Further than last time, I guess. 

Nearly all the TOS 'odd balls' were still telling a legit story, that many people missed at the time. They also fit the time period, with what was going on in the world around us.  And no one turned into a tribble at least :)  That episode also had a true hidden meaning ( be kind to animals, mostly )

In this case, Spock stays 'real' but i hear he becomes some horny screwed up d-head.    And he remained 'real', as i guess this was his dream..
