American Gods was fun but I wouldn't say it was memorable or worth the amount of hype it has received over the years.
Also people who think Sandman was high art are brainlets.

Picard is worse for damaging my TNG nostalgia. Also because I never

Discovery.

!trekkies might hate me for this take but I genuinely find all of the Borg plotlines and characters to be very tedious
and overwrought in every 90s series. Kes > Seven 
of Nine and they killed 
my girl off just to put some tits on the screen. And the only series 
to handle attempts at serialized plot successfully was DS9.
Since I'm putting my hottest Trek takes out there
I'll also say Voyager was worse than Enterprise. It was humorless and grimdark and had some of the absolute lowpoints of any of the series. The r*pe episode with Seven 
in particular stands out as both a bad political 
position and unrelentingly awkward. If I wanted to watch 
SVU I would 
get some Stabler in my life.

The Borg storyline peaked with Best of Both Worlds and they spent the next decade chasing that high to diminishing returns.
DS9 did well to avoid the Borg completely because watching Voyager is cringe now with the whole forced spookiness surrounding the memeBorg.

Kes was definitely better than Seven.
But they needed another non-human character aspiring to understand humanity. TOS had Spock, TNG had Data, and Tuvok had too much Starfleet to play this effectively. Seven was at least an interesting take on this role.

Voyager has its moments. You have to accept that it's going to be really dumb and try to have fun with it. Like reptilian aliens wearing Nazi uniforms. It's not something you can take seriously but it's hilarious.
The Borg stuff in Voyager was just boring to me. Every time you make them more human you make them less intimidating. They're only good when they're treated like a force of nature.

Compared to most TV I agree, I just consider
it one of the lowest iterations of Trek.

I don't know dude Enterprise was probably just as bad honestly season 1 and 2 of TNG were pretty horrible too. I like discovery as long as you don't put it in the same universe which it clearly isn't. They should have either started in the future or claimed that they captured a craft from the future.
I liked the best of both worlds and the Borg inside of that. That was excellent but honestly their introduction episode prior to was even better they were more mysterious they didn't need anyone.
I would have loved to have seen them as an alien species that simply didn't need people at all

The lowpoints and coomerism of Enterprise
had at least to me a kinda Starship 
Troopers-esque satirical quality 
to it, which is what I'm ultimately condemning Voyager for lacking entirely throughout its runtime. Forcing the Borg to be a recurring and overarching villain 
definitely soured me on the somewhat more successful earlier iterations of their appearance.

Like most Trek it got better
as it went along

ended up being.

Picard was the death of Trek. Nothing, not even the Rick and Morty Trek can do worse than the bastardization of Picard's character that show committed.
At least I know Trekkies get the last laugh because recent Star Wars is still worse

Or maybe he has finally gone senile because how could he allow them to do that to his character?

IIRC Stewart actually had a big hand in that writing. He wanted Picard to be like that (do NOT quote me on that)

Go watch The Acolyte, as many episodes as you can take. It makes Season 1 of Discovery look like In The Pale Moonlight. It took until halfway through the sixth episode for the main character to make a second facial expression.

Impossible to answer. I hated Discovery more, but Picard was worse, but Discovery was wokewashed woman nonsense, but Picard shat all over a great legacy, but Discovery had the terrible Michael Burnham actor, but Picard had that butt-faced android b-word, but Discovery had a fricking mushroom drive, but Picard dressed as a pirate.

Hard agree.
Of course it isn't. All comics are low art. Like Neil Gaiman's Sandman, Art Spiegelman's Maus, Alison Bechdel's Fun Home, Alan Moore's From Heck, Eddie Campbell's Bacchus, and the Hernandez brother's Love & Rockets, are all low art.

When Morrison was coming up he would constantly trash moore in the press and accuse him of plagiarism and other shit.
