Star Trek Series of the Modern Era
Personally, I found Picard's third season a significant improvement, more than compensating for the shortcomings of the first two seasons, earning it an A in my book. Prodigy also holds a special place in my heart; it's essentially the Voyager sequel I never knew I wanted, deserving at least a B, if not higher.
