The current movie series should get the mothball treatment.

The newest Star Trek movies are really good Star Wars movies.... if that makes sense.   They aren't bad, in fact, pretty good, just not really Star Trek.  But I don't think a Star Trek movie would sell well.

TV is what is needed for Trek to really be Trek but I'm not sure I trust network TV to be handling the new one :(.

Its going to be 13 episodes with a single story line. Producer worked on DS9 and VOY among other things. I've given up hope for anything really good Trekwise since TNG ended, so it's not that big of a deal for me whether it works or not.

Just now hearing about a new show. Last night on George Norry, talk about ST and the new show. Going to be on CBS premium (whatever the name of it is) . So rating won't drive it, but subscriptions. Bryan Fuller the writer behind Hannibal and lots of ST will be running this, and after what NBC did to Hannibal can't blame him for taking it to pay tv.

no not really, the time for us old school Trekkers is long gone. We glommed onto the Roddenberry 1970s fan manipulation that got us our original cast movies and TNG, after that it was just Paramount squeezing it dry. It would be great to see ST: Beyond and this new show get back to the things we want - ethics, moral dilemmas that make us think, and great writing - but I'm never surprised when they don't happen.

Agreed this was the best part of the original series. But the TNG sucked. Piccard is a pussy, and #1...bleh.

Wrath of Kahn was great, that's the peak for the return me thinks. I do like the revisit going on now though. I can use a little action, can't wait for this one the 22nd.

    • 6 pages of tuka and Seltzer arguing is actually 97 pages long
    • 100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.  
    • "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
