I have on very good authority even some of the writers of SNW don't like the show...
It's like none of the writers for Strange New Hair have ever seen TOS.Sorry but the problem with Spock is that he is written like Sheldon from Big Bang Theory.
Because they only feel validated if everyone is just like they are.I have no idea how a member critiquing a show is insulting to you as someone who enjoys it.
Gilligan's Island averaged 32 episodes a year. Granted, those were half-hour episodes, but still.Right, it was 26 episodes a year.
What's wrong with modern actors and directors? I'm sure he meant shooting, not effects too.
They used to shoot an episode a week, sometimes more!Yes—he said it was 6 months of filming in Canada.

So I had my wife watch it( because some of my friends blame their wife for watching this stuff) and she said it sucked. She will watch the Original Trek but she's no Trekkie.
Then I had my son watch it. He is a Trekkie. He said it sucked.
Then my brother and his co workers put it on a super huge TV at work... It was a mix of Trekkies and non Trekkies.
THEY all said it sucked.
Please keep in mind that you are not only preaching to the choir here.
I actually like the show very much, even with all the experimentation, and sometimes because of it.
I won't insult you for disliking it, and I hope you won't do the same to those of us who do. I'm not part of a vocal minority. I just like the show.
I've got the whole TOS on physical media. Watch it all the time. Couldn't care less about SNW.So far we have gotten:
A crossover episode with a cartoon.
A musical episode.
Spock written like a cross between Data and Sheldon.
A crew that has very little resemblance to anything approaching being professional.
The Gorn turned into Alien.
The reuse of Trelane.
Now we are getting a muppet episode.
I think I’m about done. I think I’ll just rewatch episodes of TOS.
After the absolutely STUPID zombie episode this week, nothing else will surprise me!
Even this upcoming episode.
