The Fun Police really misinterpreted this. This is not saying anything about how good or bad LD is. I was just expecting something more like what TAS was to TOS. Other than the fact that TAS episodes were half the length and that the animated nature allowed them to afford to depict more exotic things like underwater scenes and six-limbed bridge crew members, TOS/TAS were mostly the same. They had roughly the same degree of adventure, philosophy, humor, etc. On the other hand, LD targeted a different audience by focusing on qualities that had not been prioritized in any earlier series. I was just disappointed by how different LD is from TAS.

    You deleted a show made decades before Lower Decks, made by people totally uninvolved with Lower Decks, because of Lower Decks?

        Well that’s very silly. Measure of a Man or Darmok are the same episodes now as they were then. Nothing has changed about them. It’s like saying the entire franchise is dead to you because Nemesis was horrible. As if that somehow undoes everything that came before it and might come after it.

        You’re like one of those “the movie ruined my childhood!” people when a remake of something comes out and they didn’t like it. No it didn’t, you were an adult when you saw it.

        In other words-
