I'm happy for you .... but no, my wife is pretty set on never watching any more Star Trek. She did watch TOS as a kid and she said it excited her but she never got into TNG in the 90s or any of the other shows. I think she sees it as a remnant of her childhood or teenage years and she doesn't like going back there any more. Now we're too old to change ideas or preferences ... I know, I know, we can ... it's just not as easy as it was when we were younger.
I just watch shows on my own when I can. Mildly liked first season of Picard because the stories revolve around violence, war and conflict ... I liked it and I enjoyed seeing Patrick Stewart again but it was the variety of stories and ideas that I enjoyed in TNG. I like my action shoot em up movies ... I don't think I like it as much in Star Trek.
I'm on the second season of LD and the show is hilarious. The more I watch it the more I feel that this is what it would look like if four young Trekkies who grew up on Star Trek went to Star fleet, were top students and got stationed on the same ship. Really love the show because it's fun and reminiscent of TNG.
I'm looking forward to watching the other new shows too.
