“Well, I think what Terry did with Season 3 is so extraordinary, and I think that the appetite for it is, I think, undeniable. So certainly, I am a huge advocate of some version of that continuing. It was so spectacular, I think, what he did. And so, you know, right now, there’s no pitching of anything. Right now the world is uh shut down [due to writer’s strike]. But, you know, I would really hope– let me put it like this: I signed the petition [for Star Trek: Legacy] too.”
On the plus side, I have to think Matalas is scribbling notes, letting ideas marinate, and will have a much more fleshed-out pitch to make when the time comes. It’d be better to not have the project rushed just to meet fan demand.
Writing anything down might constitute strike-breaking.
