True Detective, series 1, was a masterpiece. That may have had something to do with series 2 [different story, setting, cast, writer, director] getting absolutely panned. The panning even discouraged me from watching it but I now have. I think series 2 is well worth watching.

@ponderable saidMy fond nostalgia for TOS has had me do the same thing but, vintage-wise, it seems to be a wee bit of a stylistic bridge too far, especially in anything more than small doses.
Being a bit nostalig we (my wife and me) startet to watch the Original Star Trek series.
The Next Generation has aged reasonably well and still pushes my buttons especially from series 3 onwards. My sons think it is dated and boring-looking. [They may not be mine.]
Beyond those, I think Enterprise (four series 2001-2005) and series 1 of Discovery (2017) were, to my way of thinking, worthy.
I also enjoyed Picard series 1 (2020).
Deep Space Nine left me cold. I have probably only watched three episodes.
Voyager seemed good enough but, aside from series 1, I never had the stamina to back catalogue through it, having been, for all intents and purpose, incommunicado when it aired (1995-2001).

@drewnogal saidObviously you have a crush on him! 😉
All is Lost - Robert Redford being the sole actor.
I’d give it 8 out of 10. Mr Redford still looks incredibly handsome at 77.

@very-rusty saidFantasy or not, the man has both talent and sex appeal.
Oh well, you can both have a fantasy, nothing wrong with that I guess!
