This is why we have classic Star Trek.

And The Orville.

    I love BSG, and The Expanse, but not what comes to mind when I think alternative to Star Trek.

    Even For All Mankind gets pretty dark at times.

    Paramount killed Trek long before this happened 🤷

    Yeah, Trek ended when Voyager ended. I will never be convinced otherwise.

    Hard disagree. I absolutely love every minute of SNW, and Lower Decks is also amazing.

    enterprise grew on me when I saw how bad it could get when discovery came out.

    it's been a long road getting from there to here and I know it's been a long time since the show aired, but its time is finally near.

    I watched three seasons of Enterprise. Didn't finish it. I think I could have done without it. That was back in 2010, though. Things have gotten much, much worse since then. Maybe it does deserve a revisit.

    I do like Scott Bakula. It's hard to not see him as Sam Beckett, though.

    Trek may be dead, and now Dr Who may be dead. Marvel and Star Wars in decline.

    All this tells me is that there's a sequel where Spock, er, Star Trek miraculously comes back to life after a time.

    And we just lost out on the stargate revival too, as amazon after starting the the media push earlier this year, has now decided to kill it suddenly.

    Too big to fail is ALSO too big to care.

    The ONLY focus will be money.

    There’s no way Avatar survives this either.

    (As in the bending one, not the blue people one).

    I’m a LOTR nut and we actually look at it as a good outcome if no more LOTR shit can be made, period.

    I guess Trek is not like that, though a lot of people seem to think some shows/movies should never have been made.

    Just trying to offer a positive spin on franchise death.

    The title reminded me of one of my favorite indie albums by a band that died before they became villains and I thought you all would like them.

    They’re called Rodeo Ruby Love and named after the singer’s grandmother or something. It’s kind of Weezer meets They Might Be Giants? Maybe?

    Anyway, here’s a link if anyone cares: https://youtu.be/HgBfld0v6Dk

    ETA: This is my favorite song on the album. By FAR. https://youtu.be/EJREjJJ6uN0

    See? All that kneeling in front of the president helped them get what they wanted!

    The last I heard was on NPR and that some European companies are still blocking it from happening there. I could be wrong and things may have changed. I will see if I can find a source.
