Really too bad. I was hopeful, but it sounds like it’s not happening.

    Bummer. But given that streaming services in general don’t seem to be doing that great and that paramount was just actively seeking to be bought or merged or whatever, it really doesn’t surprise me that they aren’t going out of their way right now to make new and likely expensive trek shows beyond what they are already working on.

      But with Discovery gone, they have a void to fill and I am not convinced Starfleet Academy will fill it adequately.

      I love Tilly, but I don’t think her heading up a cast of adolescents makes for a compelling show.

        Yea it probably won’t fill that void adequately.

        But doesn’t that also make the assumption that they want to fill that void instead of scale back how many trek shows they are producing.

          I guess they’re in a sort of catch-22 situation. They need Star Trek to keep people subscribing but Star Trek is more expensive than they can afford.
