Have you ever given up on a Trek series? If so, what was the last straw for you?

I haven't yet, although the last 2 seasons of Discovery were a struggle after 3 enjoyable ones. I definitely wasn't always watching on release day, the last season. Always the release week, though:lol:

I remember when ENT was on, the first 2 seasons, I was watching out of some kind of loyalty more than anything. Glad I held on because I loved season 3.

Voyager we always watched but towards the end it was more on in the background that first run.

This feels like an awesome standard to adopt. "I'm not into this show enough to catch on release day, but it's still worth checking out on release week."

Hey, I get it. It's similar to my current attitude towards MCU shows.
 
I've given up on two, Picard and Discovery. There wasn't any particular episode that made me quit, they just both committed the unpardonable sin of being boring to me.

On Discovery I made it to season 2. I really liked Saru, and thought Stamets was interesting, but under-utilized. In season one I thought Lorca's character was interesting, and was curious to learn more about him until the mirror universe twist. Then in season 2 I liked the Enterprise crew as well, but I was bored with the serialization in both seasons.

On Picard I only made it to the end of season 1. I liked a few of the characters, Soji and Rios primarily, but ran into the same issues with the serialization as I did with Discovery.
