Supposedly, these aren't canon and from watching the first one at

, I can see why they aren't now.

Update: I can't seem to fix my title. If convenient, can someone move the ) to the end?

Here was my own reply to this post:
I wonder if these two fan animations done in the style of TAS spurred Paramount to do the above retro projects:

- this one was hilarious when I first saw it.

Second one was dropped recently. It had dark humor and a reference to Disco.

was the 2nd ep.

was TNG-based and kinda related to First Contact (episode). Was kinda gross.

Final ep

has a guest voice that was a surprise to me. And, w/o spoiling, a different guest actor for another character than I expected (you'll know when I mean if you'd seen the SNW S2 finale).

Star Trek ended in 2005. Nothing after that is Star Trek.

Man!

Strange New Worlds has self-contained eps and is kinda like TOS. Disco was really different but was season 4 was crap and in the end, not really worth watching.

Picard show had uneven plot density in season 1 but the ending was good. First 1.5 eps of season 2 were really good. I didn't mind S2. Ending was again good. S3 towards the end was wow! But yeah, show overall was a huge departure from TNG.

I couldn't care less about Prodigy though. And, I'm not interested in Lower Decks. Watched maybe an ep or two.
