Related to a recent thread about love for SNW.

I’m worried that the suits at Paramount are under the misconception that the love for SNW is somehow inextricably tied to TOS.

i really think that’s not the case, and has more to do with the fantastic cast, writers, and return to Trek’s roots.

i’m really sad to see it ending. there’s been talks of following it up with a new TOS reboot, but that’s actually NOT what i want. i already have TOS.

what i REALLY want is a Capt. Una spin-off show.

how do people feel about that? has there been any official mention of the concept? are they even aware of that as a possibility that fans might want?

thoughts?

    I don’t think they’re doing so much of a TOS reboot as a TOS continuation with some retconning and reusing some SNW sets and cast.

    I’ve heard it floated around that it would depict the start of Kirk’s mission, which TOS didn’t depict, showing the crew already relatively comfortable with the ship. Personally, I’d like them to something of a year 4/5 that takes place either during or after TAS. As I mention elsewhere in this thread, I think “Yesteryear” would be an awesome remake; it could be pulled off in one 50 minute episode (already double TAS length), but I think it would be awesome to extend it to a two parter.
