Kept watching up until halfway through season 3 to find something that reminded me of the trek of old, always giving it another chance before eventually giving up. STD shares the franchise name and that’s about it.
The show doesn’t fit with the wider ST canon. So many apparently minor details are wrong when you fit this series in with the rest of ST, yet to those of us who care it shows either ignorance or laziness on the part of the production team. Not one episode has me thinking it’s a “classic” or worth watching again unlike the series that came before.
STD is a show of its time and as such it will age faster than those that came before. I guarantee when I’m old and grey TOS-ENT will still be watched on repeat as STD becomes a minor footnote of how not to reinvent a franchise.
