Is any New Trek good? Or is it just all "Pew pew were a prestige TV gritty action show now." stuff? (hexbear.net)

I'm curious to creck some of the new stuff out but it all looks so not Star Trek

By New Trek I mean Discovery, Picard, Strange New World and Lower Decks

Wow that's a lot of series.

I like the optimism of Star Trek and apparently a lot of New Trek kind of abandons that? sadness

I really enjoyed season 3 of Picard. The premise of S1-2 was so bad, but it appears they just said fuck it, we're doing fan service for S3. It feels like a good times TNG movie over 10 episodes.

could i just jump in at s3 and only watch that and be good? or would i need a short summary of the 1-2 plot

I think a summary would be enough. But, Q is in season 2, so you'd miss that I guess. 7 of 9 carries the first two seasons. If you can blast through it there are some other good cameos. But S3 is where it all comes together and they finally get the TNG crew back together for a mission.
