It’s funny… In some ways, I think he adored the stories they were telling, and particularly the potential the characters and the setting held, but he really seemed to dislike the production environment and many of the specific decisions that were made. He is an artist with a very specific voice (lol, literally even) and mindset that was maybe poorly suited to making Star Trek his “thing.”
God though, can you imagine if the brooding-to-manic Sisko acting roller coaster had become iconic in the broader culture like Shatner’s staccato shouting and dramatic pauses?

I think he just didn’t like living with Rick Berman’s decisions
I think that’s part of the appeal of Star Trek. Few other shows put as much effort into telling a complete story in 1 hour.
Personally Holodeck episodes are my favorite. No other show does that. And they go so over the top with the costumes its brilliant.
