On the show, or Jeri Ryan?

On the show.

Just caught a clip on YT
Apparently the Borg do what the Borg do because





The Borg Queen is lonely 

[WLJ]

The Borg are not only lonely but are the good Borg now and want to join the Federation.

And just saw this
Gee wonder what they're trying to imply at 0:22

Technically, they wanted the Federation to join their organization in the old series.

I was reflecting that we are further away from the The Next Generation series today than we were from the Original Series when the Next Generation came out.

It's like another universe. I haven't watched these new "start trek" shows, but I saw a pretty funny youtube video the other day showing all the discontinuity. As an example, the replicators that didn't exist in TOS are suddenly available in Discovery and I guess Strange New Worlds as well. At least Enterprise did stuff like have twitchy transporters, since it was a new technology.

With all these changes and deviations from one ST series to the next, it would seem like the future isn't what it used to be.

Or maybe the writers and/or producers really don't really care about Star Trek - to them, it's just the gig before their next one.

Meh.

Not a good time to be a passionate Trekkie.

This, plus the drive to push "The Message" in nearly every movie and TV series is ruining them as entertainment.

Just try to ignore anything made after Enterprise
But I will admit like watching a train wreck it's hard not to look once in awhile

I do think 'Lower Decks' is generally worth a watch.

Almost forgot about that
I've caught some clips of that on YT and the impression I've got is while woke to a certain extend it does respect old Trek for the most part and the rapid fire references they include to Trek lore is quite interesting.  There are YT videos where they try to spot them.

[MillCreek]

I have only seen the first episode so far, but 'Strange New Worlds' looks promising.

Discovery doesn't even try to be intelligent
