I have strong opinions about this, and you may too. But if you add notes / comments please remember every one of these series has die hard fans who adore the show.
No room for I liked them all / other movies! Argh, tumblr, please give us just a few more poll options!

Late Stage Capitalism and Star Trek
Since Star Trek series are, to some extent, a reflection of the current time in our world that the series is/was made (whether in themes, costuming, characters, etc.).
It does sadly make sense for new Star Trek series to be the way that they are. I mean think of it, we are in late stage capitalism.
Originality and artistry has been pushed aside for the sake of creating fast, and consistent financial capital.
Of course the star ships look like Genius Bars, of course the costumes lack flair and are primarily black or sad beige. As we progress in late stage capitalism we feel the binding pressure of forced conformity.
It only makes sense that the series would dilute the philosophical foundation we saw in the earlier series. TV and film since its inception has always been a part of the spectacle but now it is expected that each piece of media is its own spectacle. The cost of being a spectacle (to the degree late stage capitalism has forced TV and film to be) is the loss of rich narratives with vibrant story-telling and unique characters with depth.

Shipping Forecast
Edwin and Charles. You know you're going to.
Previously ....
And I can go even further back in the mists of time. Patrick Stewart is so fine he can act with his jaw muscles.
Right back to the seventies. Blakes 7. This is sooo wrong.
Me and my sister would be screaming NOOOO at the last one.
