I’ve been watching the Next Generation for a while but on my dad’s recommendation I started SNW and I love it. I’m getting through it really quickly and thought about jumping straight to TOS after.

Is it going to be really jarring or do the two sync quite nicely? Do the characters feel a bit flat after all the exploration they get in SNW?

    I’ve never heard anyone call the OG Enterprise crew “flat.” It’s definitely a 60s show, but it’s great. Just have fun with it.

      Okay cool! I’m definitely going to dive in either way but I wasn’t sure if characters like T’Pring or Nurse Chapel become really different or suddenly there’s big differences in their personalities etc

    I consider myself a Trekkie but I have never watched TOS (except for the movies). I have it all downloaded but I just can’t bring myself to watch it.

    I’ve been binging DS9 after finishing Picard, which I watched because SNW absolutely blew my mind how good it was.

    No but I did watch the TOS episode Balance Of Terror after watching the associated SNW episode and I HIGHLY recommend it, it is great fun to watch one right after the other.
