everything suits me so far in this series, but the hairstyles of the 80s are just terrible, even in the first series they looked better

@jsmarty: but for me, on the contrary, in TOS you look at aliens.

The best moment in these first two episodes is old McCoy, who is in the picture.
There are many differences from the original, there are more holes between the characters. It's worth getting used to, and giving a season for the series to accelerate.

Somehow they suddenly started abruptly, at least they gave some kind of preamble.
And then I'm the captain, I study the ship and clap, Q appears.

@kuzkir: well, the original series started even sharper, there is at least to some extent a new beginning for the whole team, many are just getting to know each other.

I've already said goodbye to all the old characters - and then hop! McCoy! How did he live to such an age?)

Maybe someone will come in handy. Which episodes are required to watch in season 1 and 2.
Season 1:
01: Encounter at Farpoint - intro to Q and the trial of humanity
05: Where No One Has Gone Before
09: Hide and Q
12: Datalore
14: 11001001 - skippable, but fun Riker Picard holodeck scenes
22: Skin of Evil - not very good but...
24: Conspiracy
Season 2:
02: Where Silence has Lease
08: A Matter of Honor
09: Measure of a Man
11: Contagion
13: Time Squared
16: Q Who?
21: Peak Performance
All the others are better to drop and watch in a row from the 3rd season

@dlr5668: those who want to use this list should know that in the first season, there is confusion with the number of episodes on some sites (including cutting).

Because series 1 and 2 are considered as one big series. So the 3rd series is 2nd there. The season turns out to be 25, not 26 episodes.

Just this list is above - season 1 - for sites where 1-2 episodes together and 25 episodes. If you don't, add +1 to the numbers of season 1

The first season is no, it's really better to skip. You can even skip the whole thing, because even these selected episodes of season 1 are very weak. I watched 13 episodes in a row, I couldn't watch any more, so I endured 13 episodes. Then I started watching these selected episodes of season 1... I liked just a couple of episodes from the season

Here's the second season is already more interesting than the first, but also a little weak.

So you can start watching right from season 3

I expected more from the beginning. The characters almost didn't catch on, with two or three exceptions. I heard that Q is so cool, but in fact (at least in this episode) he is an incomprehensible uncle who, for some reason, became attached to the crew. Picard is no better until I see him as a good captain. We'll have to look further, but without pleasure.

It can't be, McCoy. It was nice to see someone from the old team. But the admiral? I didn't know that doctors could rise so high in rank.
About the new team. The XO, as I understand it, is Kirk 2.0. And Android is the robo version of Spock.))

For a long time I could not approach this series. Everything except the original and DC9 has already been revised...

But after watching all 10 old full-length films - Star Trek, including with Picard - the series is already perceived quite differently. Almost the whole team is already familiar and native

I started looking at the AXH Ski-Fi voiceover, which is on most sites. I don't like it at all. Can't...

But in the voice acting of SDI Media, she went with a bang!!! Besides, I've watched all the Star Trek movies in this voiceover

In the scene of the trial, you can see Keri-Hirayuki Tagawa, aka Shang Tsung.
