Cartoons I used to love when I was younger, but again, watching stuff like Tom and Jerry is like going back a very long way - it is such a tired format now.
I still see modern animations such as Coco with my grandsons, and they are very well done and quite entertaining. But I wouldn't watch them on my own. I have, literaaly, 'grown out' of that type of entertainment, which is, after all, aimed at children and young adults.

In other words you watched DS9 and Voyager until they were cancelled anyway.
Actually I think the stories hold up rather well, especially Next Generation. And they look very good too, so long as you make allowances for the capabilities of the time (caveat ... the remastered NexGen episodes look great except on a UHD, high frame rate TV, which for my taste tends to make the picture contrast and colour space look like a 1980s tv soap opera, shot on video, which is a shame as it was actually all shot on 35mm film.)
Are you sure you’re just not very good at allowing your imagination to fill in the gaps where any modern sci fi or fantasy series would jam the screen with CG and faux handheld camera shake?
