I started with Star Trek after watching the Star Trek (2009) movie in college. After that I went wild watching everything I could since I was young with loads of time. I watched most of TOS, all of TNS, all of DS9, all of Voyager, all of Enterprise and all of the movies. I then stopped since I didn’t have the time and wasn’t ready to download a new app to watch Discovery.

I am interested in watching some of the new shows from Discovery onwards but don’t know where to start and what are worth watching. I no longer have hours to watch TV or movies anymore and want to prioritize series on an easy to find streaming service. What is worth watching and what is worth skipping? Is it worth while to watch them all the way chronically or just watch one series and then another one.

    Indeed, I almost stopped watching after the first four episodes or so because it felt like it was going to be “the Mariner show” and Mariner was really rubbing me the wrong way, she was a very annoying character. But the show course corrected over time, it brought several other main characters up to equal prominence and more importantly it started filing the annoying edges off of Mariner to make her a more well-rounded character that I actually kind of like now.

    Now it’s my top recommendation for modern Trek. And for Trek in general, really. The people making Lower Decks are clearly deeply in love with the setting and its history as a show.
