I'm curious to creck some of the new stuff out but it all looks so not Star Trek

By New Trek I mean Discovery, Picard, Strange New World and Lower Decks

Wow that's a lot of series.

I like the optimism of Star Trek and apparently a lot of New Trek kind of abandons that? sadness

No.

Star Trek is a pulp show from the 60s which is fun to watch. TNG is an iconic show and now classic nothing really needs to be said about on this kind of thread. DS9 subverted the optimism and introduced an episodic drama and was a good ending to the era. Voyager is understood to be best as pop Trek that scratched the itch for the time and kind of fell apart.

Nothing else will ever be worth while from the property and all that remains is just un-creative vultures attached to a "franchise" handing out trek themed slop on a corporate project managers schedule. It exists solely to engage the nostalgia segments of your brain and will do nothing to enrich your life. Picard won't even entertain you.
