I'm an old school Star Trek fan with the original series always being my favorite. I enjoyed TNG quite a bit as well. I was a sporadic viewer of DS9, Voyager and Enterprise. Somewhere in an alternate reality it was Star Trek, Star Trek Phase II, and then a Star Trek: TNG but that's just me. I enjoyed the first 2 Kelvin timeline movies even though there are differences. The third one just honestly left me flat. I have watched the first 3 seasons of Star Trek: Discovery but not the current season. Discovery is a mixed bag but something that stood out for me is that it doesn't make me want to re-watch it like I would the early Trek. It just doesn't grab my attention like that. The one thing that really stood out for me was Captain Pike. I've always wanted a Pike series. Even a season of original Trek with Jeffrey Hunter returning for a pre-injury story arc would have been cool. Now my curiosity is definitely way up with the Strange New Worlds series. This is the one part of new Trek that has me really excited. How about you? Are you a Star Trek fan? What series do you prefer?

The actor playing Pike was great in AMC's Hell on Wheels. And that show had Colm Meaney from NextGen/Deep Space.
