Hello /c/sciencefiction lemmies. I've put together an image of some of the most discussed shows from July 2023.

Are there any science fiction TV series you are currently in the middle of watching or plan on watching in August?

Here is last months post. What are you Watching? (July 2023)

After hating the abominations that DIS and PIC where, I really enjoy SNW!

Agreed on all points.

I can't believe all the praise for s3 of Picard. Are people really so excited to see the TNG actors on the screen that they failed to notice that the writers have them playing entirely different characters from who they used to be?

Honestly, even though the show is named "Picard", I can't see this Patrick Stewart character as the Picard I once knew.

Do you have any idea how bad the writing has to be before The same character played by the same actor seems like an entirely different person?

I mean, even when they fucked up Luke Skywalker in the sequel movies, he still felt like Luke Skywalker.

Its almost like they have always hated Star Trek and are out to hurt old school trekkies by destroying it´s legacy. I simply stopped watching and the problem was solved. I´m also really happy that we can say what we think about this openly here on lemmy. On reddit I got a lifetime ban in the big ST sub just for not liking and therefore criticizing Nu Trek.
