I started watching TOS after seeing the 2009 movie and was quite, er, taken aback with the change in pace lol. I was still able to handle old Trek because I watch a lot of older TV, but I’ve tried to show certain classic episodes to my husband and the pacing frustrates him even when he’s otherwise really enjoying the story.
That’s a good call, with a caveat.
