Each StarTrek story finds its own voice, setting the franchise apart in the nostalgia game.
The rivalry between "Star" franchises is one of the weirdest things in pop culture. Comparing Star Trek and Star Wars isn't really something that makes all that much sense, seeing as they are completely different from one another.
Star Trek has been on a streak of good shows as of late, led by writers and producers Akiva Goldsman and Alex Kurtzman. The new CBS-built universe on Paramount+ currently consists of four series, each set in a different era of the franchise's chronology: Discovery, Picard, the animation Lower Decks and, of course, the newcomer Strange New Worlds. There are also minor shows, but these are the flagships.
That only happens because of the basic premise of the Star Trek franchise: to seek out new life, new civilizations and boldly go where no one has gone before. If you insist on bringing the story to the same old planets and the same old characters, then, well, you're not boldly going anywhere. The main characters, then, become the very values and themes the franchise promotes: the use of logic and science to solve problems and the triumph of the human spirit through cooperation.
The Star Wars universe is vast and can expand in any direction. There are multiple planets, organizations, institutions and whatnot, each with its own set of rules and, usually, the typical Star Wars story talks about the conflict between them . Unfortunately, though, the recent shows have set aside the basic premises of the franchise in order to satisfy the most nostalgic part of the fandom.
