It could be an album, movie, tv show, whatever.

First, The Orville is excellent and for anyone who watches Trek I always recommend The Orville. It's a little crude when it starts, but it's levels out and is really great.

Second, since you didn't mention it, Strange New Worlds is the modern Star Trek in universe show you're looking for.

    SNW can be ok, but it leans pretty heavy on the action, and the moral quandary episodes are hit or miss to a high degree. I can't think of a single high concept scifi premise episode of SNW that made me say "Wow." and stuck with me. The war PTSD episode with the transporter buffer triage was very good, but more emotional and less scifi high concept. And I've already seen MASH.

    Season 2, episode 2, Ad Astra per Aspera is my go to answer for best episodes that I think about. It's clearly inspired by TNGs The Measure of a Man while that episode will always be the best, the SNW episode still scratches that itch.
