I’m of the unpopular Opinion that SNW was @ boring rehash of anything I could get from any other show that already exists, and Academy was something fresh. All these irate chickenshits would love SFA if it just had the serial numbers filed off, except that “its woke” because it acknowledges that people just fucking exist.
But hey, can’t jeopardize the popularity of a thing that’s someone else’s “property,” not even if that’s what it takes to live up to the actual legacy of the Original. Just leaving it to the community would actually let us make something beautiful, as we have done before, so that can’t be allowed.
I guess we’re just gonna get more Original Series fanfic that lands hollow for me, maybe a hunting-terrorists spy flick, and another mindless cash-grab movie whose screenplay will probably be mostly written by AI.
No more moral questions, no more interesting discussions of what an identity means, no more of what makes science fiction worthwhile as a genre - we have ships to explode - IN SPACE!!!1!!
Prodigy, a show written for literal children will be more interesting a topical exploration than a Larry Ellison property.
i dont think SNW was that good, the acting is too wooden, and some of the endings in seasons were like"is that it"? prodigy and lower decks were way better. With ellision in control of trek IP, fans that are usually “left” leaning, how are they going to justify watching and supporting someone like ellison.

What a muddy comment. Took me two reads to try to figure out the argument therein, after which I stopped.
