It is a shocking drop in quality compared to other treks
Yep.
TOS, TAS, MOV, TNG, DS9, VOY, all great. ENT, a bit meh, but looks great compared to everything since.
DIS, PIC, SNW, SFA, utterly terrible, especially the last two. Most especially this latest one. It's like either they've never seen Star Trek, or, they have, and they're intentionally trying to do everything as wrong as they possibly can. Perhaps as some kind of sadism and intentional degeneracy. Perhaps it flies under the radar of those who've never understood what Star Trek was doing, and who've succumbed to "brain rot" from hyper-short form content.
What an atrocious affront to the guiding principles Gene Roddenberry put in place. No interpersonal conflict?? SFA's almost nothing but interpersonal conflict. So much just makes no sense, like no one had pause to consider it, like it was a 3rd rate AI's first idea. There's so much "dumb". Could write an entire essay on what's wrong for every 5 seconds of it. So very poorly conceived, poorly written, poorly directed, poorly acted. It is consistently, concentratedly, astoundingly bad.
Too many chefs spoiling the broth? ~ Too many over-paid producers choking out any artistic integrity? Astonishing that they can spend so much, and make something so intensely, consistently, bad.
Does not deserve the name Star Trek. It is consistently violently in opposition to everything good that Star Trek was about. Sickening.
Farcically failing at suspension of disbelief, at almost every turn, adding more layers of implausibility and universe breaking wrongness, it is mind blowing. If it's not intentional sadism and sabotage, perhaps it's well meaning incompetence, over-confidently charging on ahead, with no clue how wrong they are? ~ Hence the Dunning-Kruger graph... to be charitably reaching for Hanlon's razor.
Good time to get into the books for something more "cannon" than Kurtzman-Trek.
And/or even start writing our own. (Already am.)
