TV nerds: what should I watch (slrpnk.net)

I haven't watched TV in years; kids and my previous job really killed that.

There's SO much out there since I last picked up a remote, and I have a fucking huge backlog.

I'm open to anything, as long as it's well done.

Series I liked: Vikings, Norsemen (hysterical), The Americans, GoT, Man in the High Castle, Expanse, Spartacus (Batiartus is amazing)

I'm scratching the surface of Boardwalk Empire, but open to other rabbit holes.

All the star trek. This is not negotiable.

There is an absurd quantity of low quality Trek being shat out recently, did Disney buy the IP or something?

[–] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 month ago (2 children)

what?

SNW and Lower Decks is pretty much as good as star trek can get. I'm on the fence about prodigy, but people generally are also very positive about it.

disco has its fair share of problems, but the later seasons were also quite good

Lower Decks is great if you're already a fan of classic trek ie TOS, Next Gen, Voyager, and DS9. I would never recommend the show to anybody who wasn't a big fan of Star Trek already as most of the really good jokes would go over their head.

Strange New Worlds is a fantastic starting point though IMO.
