...which runs the risk of more inferior content outnumbering what good existed in the franchise (ST has been on the losing end where that's concerned for more than two decades).
Paramount apparently still doesn't get it...

What would be super nice (and unlikely in most any fandom) is to be able to like what we like, enjoy what we enjoy without someone telling us why we are wrong headed/foolish/delusional/etc for doing so because ... something something
LOOK!

Indeed. It's ok to not like something without empirical proof.
Would this be a good time for some vague charts?
Fine. I'll just send them back to Canada where they'll be unappreciated.
Only ones printed in Canadian.
It is also okay to state why one doesn’t like something, as long as they aren’t pretending to speak for the whole fan base or insulting others.
foley and mumbler should stick to counting windows
May I add that while I sort of like some of snw, and appreciates it's finale, I can't help but realize that in snw, the characters talk top fast, there's no time to absorb the scene, by waiting on it or showing a few different characters reactions. The style of speaking also isn't detailed, slow, and professional like it was in tos and tng. It's quick, filled with unnecessary and unfunny jocularity, and I might add, none of the solutions are as brilliant and thought out as they were in older shows. It's like the writers are just trying to pump out a script as fast as possible on kilograms of caffeine, speeding throigh plot points and dialogue to make it "complete" enough to make it seem like it's coherent and makes sense, without actually having to think about the script and put thought and heart and love and emotion into it. It's difficult to explain unless youre a writer. Thats what the new shows feel like. Rushed and not thought out. It shows so clearly in the dialogue and pacing and storytelling. It's so obvious that the writing follows a certain formula only up to a point so that it makes sense and is coherent, but is obvious how hastily and lazily it's written.
Episodes are shorter now. It is just the evolution of TV. TOS had 51 minutes to fill every week, TNG 48. Now we're largely in the 35-40 minute range for episodes.
I'm telling the Royal Charts Council of Canada aboot this. You watch!!
I want Captain Rios back, I can find a way to bring him back plot wise =D.
Man, do I miss him sitting in that big chair. I was so looking forward to Captain Rios in command of the StarGazer for longer than what he got.

That’s The Royal Council of Canadian Charts. Get it right, hoser.
While that is true for broadcast shows, streaming series don't have that excuse. Without being locked into an hour long format, counting commercials, an episode can be 50-65 minutes and not have an issue.
That was actually an issue I had with multiple DISCO season 1 episodes, because a couple of them were only around 35 minutes. (They did get better at that in season 2, at least.)
I imagine a 35-40 minute episode is far more economical than 50-65. No matter how talented the people involved are, they still have to deal with the bean counters.
Possibly. But when you hear about how much ends up on the cutting room floor, many of them being character beats or expressions, it doesn't make sense to me.

You're no longer my buddy, guy.
