I am a Trek completist, so of course I watched everyone, but hated it every time.
And I tend to think it got worse not better over time. There's much core silliness, but overall the problem is that it might as well be the new Shonda Rhimes drama... In Space.
The main character most of all, and the part where she's The Center Of Everything. To the point there's no drama because She Is Always Right. Never ever fails when it matters.
I mean, then they fail all the time. For only plot reasons; the crew has done a great job and they screw around and the bad guys take advantage and now you have the whole episode to correct it. All sorts of stories are like this, unforced errors that no one then talks about, but annoys me; why keep sending the makes-it-worse crew into action?
And then the talking. OMG, they keep talking so so much about everything. Just one of thousands of examples: "You leave immediately" is near the beginning of the second to last episode. Halfway through the last episode /they still haven't left/ and have instead had more meetings, more heartfelt conversations with friends and lovers, etc.
I mean, people like this stuff, but it's so trite, and stuff that annoys me immensely.
