I watched a nerdrotic video for the first time ever and he streamed a video of a spock doll that got more love viewers than the first episode of this show when they streamed it on YouTube

star trek was like, "we need an acolyte" and producers were all, "hold my blood wine cooler"


I want to see a photo of the writer's room.

I think you know what color hair they all have.


Color? As in singular color? It's definitely a plethora of colors

Wow. That didn't take long.


And yet it probably still took too long.

Shame. I look forward to the online uprising and movement to try and get it reinstated.

It really boggles my mind how Hollywood execs can continually make such crappy decisions (not the cancelling part...the part where they decided to make this in the first place). Between this and Section 31 they might as well sell off the Star Trek rights for pennies on the dollar and move on.

Here is how I fix Star Trek and probably everything else. Admit it's okay that minorities and gays do not care about science fiction. Go overboard on sex and violence. Sydney Sweeney as the new Kirk. Get horny white male nerds to write all episodes. No social media presence whatsoever. Anything published online good or bad about the show will result in immediate legal repercussions. No cgi

Ep 1: The trouble with tribble ticklers

Aided by pleasant and addictive side effects, sentient alien tribble sex toys go wild and reproduce rapidly from within their symbiotic users before releasing their zygotes into new prey in an attempt to take over Starfleet from within. Meanwhile, Captain Sweeney - being immune to the tribble charms due to her pair of medusa mammaries and tight fitting jeans - is forced to fight them off alone before it's too late and the whole crew succumbs to the alien invasion.

Will it be a bloodbath? Or can Captain Sweeney take them out with her oral skills? Tune in to find out!

Terrible idea. Show would end after S1E1 when Captain Sweeney somehow clips something in hyperspace careening the Enterprise out of hyperspace too early and off into the void of unknown space.

Is that what really happened to send Voyager to the Delta Quadrant?

My plan to fix Star Trek: All new Trek was just Jake Siko's s**t attempt at writing a holosuite adventure and can be disregarded for all eternity as it is no longer canon.

I don't understand. Season 3 of Picard was PEAK television and it PROVED there are still people alive who can create bad ass Trek. Picard ended with the PERFECT SET UP for 7 of 9 to captain her own ship and continue the prime timeline.

This was so heavily rumored it had a name, "Star Trek legacy"

Why won't they do this? Seems so easy.
CNN is an enemy of the state and should be treated as such.

Well well well...

Not Star Trek but it looks like we'll be getting a new live action Gundam movie starring...Sydney Sweeney. Given how sexist some of the Gundam anime is this could be interesting. This one will be on Netflix.

SA, while not off to the greatest start, today's episode was an hour of great television and performances. Holly Hunter and Paul Giamatti were exceptional together. Favorite episode of this show so far by a mile.

Yeah, I just finished the season/series and the last 3-4 episodes were a lot better than the first part of the season. I don't know if it was planned this way or if the writers/producer heard the criticism and pivoted, but there were some pretty good moments towards the end.

I sure hope the franchise goes back to the end of Picard Season 3 and does a new series right where Picard left off. They set it up perfectly for Legacy or whatever they want to call it.

Not a chance...I would happily pay for Paramount+ to see Deepthroat, I mean "space", Sweeney...we could all use more of Sweeney's void in our lives.

...and less alphabet Klingons

Well, I managed to watch the whole first 2 episodes. I wouldn't call it horrible. Its definitely for a different audience than traditional Trek, but that's not always a bad thing. Not sure Holly Hunter's hippie vibe really works here, but I do like her as an actor in general so I can look the other way there. The Klingon will definitely end up gay. Surprised they didn't go the pronoun route with the hologram girl - props for them not going there (at least so far).

I'll continue to watch and see if it grows on me or not. The first couple episodes of any new series is always a crap shoot - sometimes everyone gels after working together and comes together as a cast, sometimes they don't.


"Gay Klingon" was already done by the Orville… basically

ah, yes, but what about a gay, cross-dressing, pacifist Klingon with 2 dads?

What I'd like to see from the Star Trek Universe:

Star Trek Tapestries

Over the years, the Star Trek Universe has given us countless stories, characters and vignettes that could warrant countless additional storylines and growth of the universe.

What if a new Star Trek Series was created that took advantage of those loose threads of stories and characters.

Consider: Star Trek "Tapestries". A series that takes characters and/or events from any Star Trek episode or movie and then provides single or (multi-part) episodes to show backstories, or continuing adventures, or "the rest of the story", etc… We might ask, "I wonder whatever happened to 'Tin Man'? "Tapestries" could show us where Tin Man came from, or the adventures he and his empathic "pilot" had after they departed at the end of the TNG episode.

I imagine it like this: The "cold open" of the episode would be from the original show that the character or event happened, kind of a "previously on…" as the selected scene ends, it freezes, and the image is converted into a "tapestry" image. The camera then moves in on the specific character, or item, etc… that is the focus of the new episode(s) then zooms in until it focuses on a single thread of the tapestry. As the opening credits/music play, the viewer is treated to a "following" of that thread through the backside of a large tapestry. We see it weaving in and out of the backside of the tapestry with some recognizable imagery from various Star Trek series'. As the credits end, we follow the thread back out the front side of the tapestry and the scene then grows and resolves into the opening scene of the new episode.

Closing credits could have the same imagery, but instead of resolving into a new scene, expanding out to a view of a massive image of Star Trek lore. (small "l" lore, not Lore)

My old roommate from A&M and I were writing a treatment for a Star Trek fan film in 2014/2015. It would have tied up the loose end of Toral from the house of Duras as we never see him again after The Sword of Kahless. Then Alec Peters raised a ton of kickstarter money for Axanar and CBS/Paramount made extremely strict rules about fan films going forward.

It isn't being cancelled because it is bad. It is just that "the public isn't ready for this."
