Do you guys also watch Trek-likes when you feel you've watched the other true Treks too recently, like toss in some Orville when you want classic Trek but just finished Kirk and Picard?

/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

You just listed another Trek show.
You mean Section 31
Section 31 was a new low
I can't offer a truly objective opinion on Section 31 because I gave up after watching the first 15 minutes.
You didn't miss much. A confused and confusing mess.
You mean Enterprise.
You mean Enterprise.
Shut your whore mouth. /s
Kidding aside, I didn't like Enterprise the first time I watched it when it aired, but having watched it through a couple times on streaming I really appreciate it much more. We are so used to the Federation and Starfleet having solid rules (even when they are ignored) based on painful lessons learned. Enterprise lets us see a whole bunch of things humanity did wrong. I like that we get knocked down a peg and have to admit we don't know everything.
There's also a lot more reliance on just human ingeniuty. Whether its Trip flying by the seat of his pants on the first ever Warp 5 engine, or Hoshi literally learning alien languages in realtime, we see humanity performing at its limits and its fun to watch.
Each to their own! I feel like you're describing what the show wanted to be quite accurately, but for me it didn't manifest much on screen.
Granted my memories may be a bit on the negative side because I've been doing this rewatch order and the last episode I watched just so happens to be 'These Are the Voyages' which, uh, yeah.
That's an interesting watch order you linked. Unrelated, it makes me wonder if there is an "all Jeffrey Combs" cut watch order. He's been in 46 episodes across 4 different Trek series.
Also, when looking for that number how did I never hear about this:
"Additionally, in 1997, Combs and his Deep Space Nine co-stars René Auberjonois and Armin Shimerman appeared together in the drama Snide and Prejudice (along with Mick Fleetwood)."
I'm really enjoying Discovery so far (but I'm not quite done with season 1).
I didn't enjoy Enterprise overall.
"Even The Animated Series?"
"ESPECIALLY The Animated Series?"
"One must imagine Sisyphus happy".
"We've had one watch through, yes, but what about second viewing? Rewatching? Binging? ”
On as background noise all day
Literally just finished a DS9 rewatch and am now going back through everything chronologically
Lol it's just like going through the Bible every year.
'We've had air date order, yes. What about stardate order?'
The first time I watched TNG all the way through I just watched it again right after lol and then I did the same thing with DS9
I like that it’s a lord of the rings reference. Makes sense.
