If you’ve watched any Star Trek this week, feel free to drop the episodes/movies and any thoughts you might have on them in the comments!

I finished Enterprise again. I still do not understand why the finale is apparently universally hated.
- To me it sort of devalued the show retroactively, like they just said sike it was all just a simulation. Also we kill trip because fuck you.
  
  Did I miss something? Are you saying that all the events of all four seasons were actually just some holonovel?
- I think most of it is probably from having the TNG characters somewhat shoehorned into another show's finale. I personally think the episode would have been a lot better without them, but I don't think it's nearly as bad as it's made out to be.
I tend to play random TNG episodes when I'm doing chores around the house. If TNG is what's playing on the P+ Star Trek Channel I'll usually just put that on. Did some early Spring cleaning this week and had a very random selection of TNG episodes playing. Can't believe Paramount put Code Of Honor in the mix there, but maybe it truly is random.
Been on a Trek rewatch kick again, to combat the depressing reality we live in. Rewatched the begining on DS9 season 6. Ep1 A Time to Stand through Ep13 Far Beyond the Stars. I'd argue that this might be the strongest string of Trek episodes in any series!
Rewatched my favorite Voyager episode too, Counterpoint. I tend to hate on Voyager a bit, but there are some really fantastic episodes mixed in with all the mid ones. Counterpoint would easily make it to my top 10 Trek episodes of all time list!
- DS9 did have some very good strings of episodes! I may be biased a bit due to it being my favorite, but I think it's the most consistently good Trek series so far.
  I've been going back and forth on what to rewatch next, I've been thinking of doing Voyager or Enterprise. Or maybe just finish TNG again, I stopped around season 5 I think.
  
  I definitely agree that DS9 is the most consistantly good Star Trek. TNG and VOY reach the same highs, but there's a lot more lows in between them.
  I would definitely recommend finishing TNG! Seasons 5 and 6 are peak!
- I do the same. TNG is my comfort background noise. Unless it's season 1, then I tend to look for something else to watch.
- That would be a fun way of doing it! I've seen some different lists like that.
The last half of DS9 Season 7 again.
Feels.....like now...lolz.
And Quark crying about them not teaching the rules of acquisition in schools anymore. 🥹
Imagine if only US GOVT systems had the same Civil Defense system that Terok Nor had, the doge spawn would never have stood a chance. 🥱
