    I like older trek because the writing was interesting and sometimes cerebral. I have no qualms with LGBT characters, I have a problem with shitty written plot and characters. Take the show away from paramount, hire the best writers you can who care some about continuity of the star trek universe and you’d have an almost guaranteed viral franchise.

        And the setting, while they’re at it!

        Imagine what they could do with Changeling crewmates, mixed with a Picard style Android and maybe the Gamma Quadrant. They’d be perfect vehicles to explore more modern issues (trans stuff/AI, for instance. Maybe neurodivergence?) in a Star Trek coat of paint.

      continuity of the star trek universe

      Actually I think this is a fairly low priority if you want to gather more viewers.

      Yeah, sure. As long as Fox doesn’t broadcast the first episode last and confuse the fuck out of all the watchers. Of course, the last bit that explains everything that no one lasts long enough to see.

      You might be able to make some comic and novels for those rare fans. To get that understanding how everyone got there from earth if some jackass sabatours don’t persuade everyone on Reddit that your comics suck. Probably the same Alliance that flexxed Fox to do what they did in the beginning.

      Maybe they make some board games too. Or hitch your actors to flip their character rep skill with the the Giggle and make a Horrible Sing-a-Long Blog.
