yes, absolutely. its in my top 5 favorite shows of all time.

(im assuming youre talking about the 00s reboot)

first two seasons are 180

quality of writing dips a bit in seasons 3 & 4 but they are still 172ish

its sci fi w relevant societal commentary without being too preachy

The reboot is absolute dreck. They are unable to move the plot without having some dude hallucinate to a robot half the time, explaining to the audience the most transparent plot-advancing points possible. At some point, the show makes a huge pro-abortion turn, even though humanity is literally about to go extinct, because it's essential for personal autonomy. The whole thing is a complete disaster, but for some reason has a cult of autists who enjoy it.

The ham handed attempts at social commentary are part of the charm. The show shouldn’t be taken seriously like a lot of other sci Fi generally is. It should be understood as fun normie slop set in a sci Fi setting

It's one of the best sci-fi television shows ever made and you should watch it in its entirety--even if it doesn't entirely stick its final landing, the journey is incredible.

yeah, lets not talk about the finale.

the last few minutes are great but everything leading up to that is just fodder. doesnt ruin the show but i definitely wish the finale was stronger.

Moore's willingness to create a decaying, realistic, increasingly desperate survival environment in a grounded military setting (but still with important and useful sci-fi tropes) was, and to a good extent still is, unprecedented and it completely paid off--what he wanted to do with ST: VOY but was never given permission for.
