Lower Decks actually added to the Star Trek universe in real ways. The whole idea of Second Contact vessels, Klingon non-noble culture, Ferengi TV, the Ferengi joining the Federation, Orion culture, etc. It wasn't only references or derivative at all.

    I didn't say it added nothing. I explicitely said there is good stuff. What I do say though is that there is too much memberberries and too little new stuff.

    It's a fair criticism. I am just more tolerant of the nostalgia bait, I guess, so it's difficult for me to see how much it would put many other people off.

    I mean, you enjoy what you enjoy. As long as it's not Star Wars Movies outside the OT + Rogue One, I won't judge.
    I also realize that I probably watch movies and shows much more critically than others and I am quickly annoyed by repetitiveness and overused patterns and tropes.
