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?
I watched those programmes until the end of the series. They are repeated ad nauseum now, but as I say, they appear very dated.

Given your complete denial of my views on the future of TV, I thought you would believe that I had a vivid imagination!
