At first I disliked "New Visions." However, it has grown on me, as it subverts our preconceived notions about professionally-produced art. And on principle, I like things that subvert our preconceived notions and expectations.

"I like things that subvert our preconceived notions and expectations."
That's a cool quote. Like it!
Byrne has to work within restrictions: established screenshots of the main characters, and certain "guest stars" whose likenesses are on the approved list from CBS/Paramount (he has said he could do a whole story featuring Mr. Leslie because there are enough "shots", but Eddie Paskey is not "approved"). He has hired "friends" (cheap! he says) to fill out his "guest stars" for some stories, or created new aliens.
He won't use any images from season three unless absolutely necessary because of hairstyle changes, and differences in costume; not a fan of that final year, I guess.
But, creativity thrives on restrictions; TOS certainly did.
