Let’s be real..
TOS wasn’t very good just a cool premis..
TNG made Star Trek.. it established the status quo and created its place in pop culture.

I don’t just mean the special effects..
Kirk way over acts..
The fight scenes are atrocious..
Some stories are decent but ALOT ARE SUPER childish.
Imho if star terk hadn’t been LITERALLY the only sci fi on television. It is never remembered..
However, it did craft a super cool universe that TNG , DS9 , exc just ran with..

I don’t consider “it had a low budget” as a good excuse for a show not being good
I agree 1000% about TNG starting slow.. most shows start slow since the actors haven’t really figured out their characters, yet.

If not for TNG , DS9 I don’t think anyone cares today. I think it would have gone the route of maybe Babylon 5, or some other show with passionate fans, but not mainstream sucess
