The nutrek complaints were so prolific and cruel, but somehow many many people really liked them. I’ve long thought that the hate campaign was astroturfed, as nobody would watch 5 seasons of a show they hated.
You’d be surprised. I gave up on the second episode of Picard and thought the first season of DISC was alright right up until they went to the mirror universe. Decided it wasn’t for me.
But my dad watched every single episode of everything that Paramount has put out. He hates them, but he watched 'em. Talks about them the same way he talks about ENT or the JJ Abrams movies.
I’d more argue Star Trek is a procedural cop show in space, but yeah pretty much. The last really good science fiction movie I saw was probably Arrival, and that was ten years ago.

I’m angry too.

Star Wars is religious fantasy not science fiction, Star Trek is endless naval gazing, not science fiction.
Aside from Andy Weir, people have dumbed down science fiction to soap operas in spaceships and it’s just not interesting or entertaining.
