Should I watch Star Trek? (hexbear.net)

Limited time offer. I have an upcoming trip and I’m looking for something to watch. Is Star Trek actually good, or only nostalgic? Should I just search for episode 1 and press play, or is there something I need to know first?

They actually built a set and (most of) the characters are compelling. Some episodes are kinda miss, some are really good. Biggest criticism is, it doesn't really have TNG's thoughtful hopeful depiction of the future, but the writers seem to think it does just by virtue of being a Star Trek™ show. Still worlds better than STD.
