I had to stop at number 2 of your list. (Maybe a bit later since I still watched Enterprise…) but Discovery killed the whole thing for me. I was like… how bad it can be? It’s still Star Trek… well no.
Checked out a few episodes of Picard…, I dunno. That’s also not necessarily the Star Trek for me. :/
(On the other hand, Seth MacFarlane’s Orville was amazing)
Highly recommend lower decks (try getting through the first few eps though, it does take a little to find its legs). I am also not a fan of Discovery and Picard. Strange New Worlds is okay, a few really strong eps (i do adore the design work though, I’m very happy with the original series era being modernized like this)
My GF didn’t watch much Trek until she met me, and since then she’s watched everything from TNG onwards. Even for a relatively new fan she agrees that Discovery just didn’t feel like Star Trek even though she liked the show.
But her favorite Star Trek show is definitely The Orville.
How did you get her to watch it and give it enough of a chance to like it? I’ve been with my wife for 20 years, and she’s still never seen any Trek other than the JJ Abrams stuff.
I started Star Trek from 0 around 2 years ago.

I am not even calling discovery startrek, it is simply not. Picard is meh.
But you need to watch strange new worlds and lower decks, if you haven’t - these are amazing.

Some women are different from other women and like different things.
