I’m a huge fan of Trek (albeit I’m not a Trekkie; just a Star Trek fan). I like all of the TV series, and many of the movies (including the Kelvin Timeline). But I find Orville trailers to pique my interest or scratch my scifi-adventure itch, whereas any Discovery news just makes me sad.
I don’t need a “gritty” Star Trek, thanks. I’ll be happy if it turns out to be just one season–and look forward to whatever Nicholas Meyer is doing.
JEDIT: And that really is sad. I hated when Enterprise got cancelled “due to low ratings”. I want Trek to be successful, but not by injecting it with fans of The Walking Dead.
