    Please do watch the show directly.

    If you must download a copy for personal use and peace of mind afterwards, that’s your choice.

    But do let them make money, let them get the viewership they require, so they keep making more quality Trek. Otherwise, everyone will suffer.

      It’s not star trek. It’s all sci-fi flavored action with no moral dilemma or demonstration that the human spirit can evolve. Let it die.

      edit: and shameless pandering to fans - looking at you Picard

          It’s had a few good episodes. That’s why I said SNW is the best of the bunch. But it’s still a low ratio of good to bad. The current crop of executives, producers and writers need to go. The only way for that to happen is a hard reset on the finances.

          It’s like when your grandmother is in hospice care on chemo. Sure, they can extend her life for a few months with drugs and invasive treatments. But what about the quality of her life? She’s bedridden in a soulless understaffed hospital that’s sole purpose is to suck every last insurance dollar out of her. Her family doesn’t want to see her in that state so she’s ignored and lonely and losing her mind.

          That’s star trek right now. Let it die.

          edit: then to further the analogy, we can reboot grandma again later with a better healthcare system
