    As a stinkin’ casual, I never watched Enterprise, but I’m glad y’all brought it up. I think I’ll go back and watch it now. I’ve been short on things to watch. I’m watching You’re the Worst because Stormfront is in it, for instance (not bad, btw).

    It doesn’t happen every cycle.

    It’s a fact that TV shows have changed over the years. Most of them today are made for people with no focus, to be watched while scrolling the phone, needing everything characters do to be stated very explicitly, everything that happens explained as it happens, filled with cliches,… Not all of them, so there is still a contrast. It is still possible to distinguish between the good stuff and the bad stuff, it’s not old people yelling at the moon.

      to be watched while scrolling the phone

      That perfectly explains what was going on with the very popular show (nothing to do with Trek) I just tried watching. I thought TV audiences were getting amazingly stupid, but I guess they’re just distracted.

          A very popular one. I didn’t name it since I don’t want to offend its fans when I’ve only seen like half of one episode and may have been too hasty to judge it. But I just don’t like that style where it’s all about explaining everything completely as it happens and then wallowing in emotional vibes.

      On the flip side, I mourn the 20+ episode season. Only Prodigy has gotten a full length season in NuTrek. (They were half hour, your preference.) Strange New Worlds deserved better than only 10 episode at a time, like it was a mid-season replacement, testing the waters.
