Star Trek is just bad. Just bad.
People keep recommending it, I kept giving it chances.
During the pandemic, I even went to IMDB, picked the very highest-ranked episodes of all time, and watched them, the supposed best-of-the-best, and they're just awful.
That's okay. It's good to live in a world where very different people enjoy very different things. I'm glad we can all be part of a social federation and still get along despite our infinite combinations of infinite diversity.
It was relatively episodic, but still had storylines that spanned episodes/seasons. To me, you could say the same thing about other series
"Lost was just bad... I even went to IMDb, picked the very highest ranked episodes..."(s4e5). (Replace Lost with Breaking Bad, would anyone recommend watching season 5 episode 14?)
I'm not sure many tv shows would live up to that metric, maybe Bluey/paw patrol/other kids shows.
Well I'm not gonna spend that much time on it now am I
No one is asking you to?
its all awesome in its own context. you just like to compare disparate works of art as if there should be a winner. just enjoy it... or dont.
i can absolutely understand someone who doesnt like star trek also not appreciating fan-based metrics such as 'best of the best'
no worries, its just not your thing.
It's not a binge watch until you die from dehydration kind of franchise. It's just good vibes short stories. You can pop almost any episode on the screen and bask in the benignness of FALGSC for 30 minutes.
That rules.
are you stuck in the medium place with a singular copy of star trek: v instead of cannonball run 2?
Whats your metric for quality? Hard to agree or disagree with such a poorly defined opinion.
