The stupid thing is that the criticism is entirely valid. The fact that Strange New Worlds and Lower Decks are so good, basically proves that it isn't a problem with new trek, just their stupid "gritty" interpretation of it.

Although in fairness Picard gets better when it just becomes more TNG. But you have this weird slog to get through before you get there, where for some reason Jean-Luc Picard is hanging out in some universe that's got nothing to do with Star Trek and feels like Mass Effect the TV show or something with all its melodrama.
