I have finished watching Star Trek Next Generation and Deep Space 9 following a friend’s recommendation. I enjoyed both shows and started watching the other one, Star Trek Voyager.
So far, I’m not finding it as enjoyable as the other two. I want to try to see it through the eyes of someone who enjoys the show, maybe it will also help me understand why it feels different somehow.
Oh absolutely, and I’m going into it knowing I’m about to see the opposite of Picard, that’s why I see it as a palate cleanser lol. My expectation for Kirk is what if the Riker we see in season 1 was a captain, but less of a feminist. Like, I’m expecting him to be feminist by 60s standards, but Riker is over here being feminist by 90s standards. And that’s ok, I love Riker as a character as well.
