TOS feels like a completely different franchise when you compare it with TNG through ENT. I blame the tone shift on when it was created. There’s almost 20 years separating TOS and TNG while TNG, DS9, VOY, and ENT were back to back.
It’s probably not a popular opinion but I consider TOS to be the weakest entry of Star Trek (that I’ve seen) and completely understand why it got cancelled.
