People keep saying this, so as someone who has only watched half of the first season, when does it get to this point?
I mean it’s amusing enough, but it’s just a pastiche of cliches and obvious gags. People keep saying that it distills Trek down to its essence or something like that, but to me it seems like “watered down” would be more accurate.
Just like TNG it starts picking up in the 2nd season and really hits its stride on the 3rd season. If you were to rewatch TNGs first season without the nostalgia goggles you’d consider it pretty campy too.
After the first season it begins to feel a bit less campy and the crude humor is toned down a bit and even more so I feel by the third season. The overall plot starts to show itself in season 2 and just gets better from there.

Having a bad first season is as Star Trek as you can get. All kidding aside, it gets better and more serious with time.

I saw a different season 3 I guess. The humor was gone but the kind and progressive approach to problems that I like about Trek was kinda gone too.
For me it was really quick. S1E4, If the Stars Should Appear.
