I thought that TNG had some definite agenda and viewpoint that I didn't like.

It was much more "man is inherently good" centric.

Most of that show was Picard trying to prove mans worthiness and how deep down man will fix everything and be perfect beings because we're so innately special and good.

Basically a denial of the sin nature.

The original series absolutely at every turn acknowledged that man is flawed and didn't trust mankind's nature with many lines pointing out the dark side of the human nature, not in the past tense, but in the present tense.

As an example. The first episode of TNG is Picard vs Q basically arguing with Rodenberry's strawman of God and beginning the series long argument that man is great, whereas the first shot episode (it was aired out of order) of TOS is a guy who gets god-like powers and how that's a really bad idea and ends in disaster because man is prone to sin (even if they don't use the word sin explicitly).

That's one of many issues I had with TNG, but I'd say the majority of my issues with TNG stem from that philosophical difference in starting position.

If your baseline premise is faulty, every conclusion made by using that baseline premise is going to miss the mark.

But in general I would also say TNG just had a more feminine outlook in general. There was less masculinity to the thinking, acting, characterization, etc.
