Let me state upfront. I have no problems with a hard reboot, that takes elements of existing Trek Canon, and remixes them. Provided its clear, that yes, its a reboot with a new creative force driving it.
The more I've had time to digest the matter, the more uneasy I've become with what Star Trek: Discovery is doing. It is not simply a clean reboot - Rather, it wants things both ways. To be original, or at least modern, while grafting itself onto existing canon and therefor forcing those who might have issues to shut up, and like it.

Star Trek: Picard
I want to make it clear, there will be spoilers here.
I'll get this out of the way This is not Star Trek. Not too much about this enthuses me.
So what is this?
Apparently its a platform for Sir Patrick Stewart to preach at the world about Brexit and the election of President Trump. And does not do it very artful either which only makes watching it unfold more tedious.
Look, as an actor, I like Patrick Stewart. I could do without his blatant political commentary.
