Love this. I don’t agree with the sentiment that Trek is being overdone - I’d rather have a slate of options and sit through the “bad” than have to wait years to get anything close to good.
Like, I enjoyed parts of Picard, but on the whole, it didn’t work out (maybe given the serial nature of each season, or cramming pretty ambitious ideas into 10 episodes each season). But I’ll take that any day over having to wait a week at a time for a “filler” episode.
Still hoping for a Klingon focused show… would love anything where a federation vessel isn’t the primary setting!
I totally agree that I love the variety of options! But I would be very happy if one of the options was that we get filler/bottle episodes for a few weeks per season, but every season is 26 episodes long. They could just spread the budget for 10 episodes across all 26, and make the VFX less... shiny.
(Of course, I don't actually want actors to be worked to the bone like they were in the 90s...)
