Are we happy or sad?
Personally I'm ecstatic. I've hated everything Kurtzman had done with Star Trek. The writing has been so bad, I'm fairly certain the writers resumes were just showing their Reddit history and Twitter history.
I'm sad. There's long been a chain of movies or shows to look forward to. I've enjoyed most of them, been infuriated with a few, but it was all Trek.
I don't trust the Ellisons with Trek, so maybe it's better if they let it fade, but it's still a loss, and I'm sad.
I'm not ready for fascist Star Trek, so its probably better this way.
It’s all Mirror Universe now
yeah, i hate to admit it but you're right about the Ellisons. this may be a blessing in disguise
Well now I'm sad too 😭
Sad. The 32nd century era didn't give me much, but trek being in production gives momentum for more trek.
I finally got around to stealing my dad's prime account with P+ and watched this. It was ok, at best.
What about this could there be to be happy about?
No fascist propaganda pieces masquerading as Star Trek due to its new ownership. This option may not be optimal, but it's the lesser of two evils.
I haven't been watching Trek for a long time now, the only recent series I liked was Lower Decks. The Kurtzman stuff just hasn't been doing anything for me. So I 'm happy that there will be an opportunity for a fresh start. I don't mind a hiatus because I wasn't watching anyway.
People couldn't stop whining about this show, and yet now that its cancelled they are all gone. Probably because half that shit was just more right-wing astroturf bullshit.
I’m mad. No. Furious. All you bitchin assholes always trashing new trek won again.
The upcoming Picard movie is also cancelled?!?
I’m so angry about this.
I’m mad. No. Furious.
Not MadMad?
I’m furiously MadMad.

They overdid it again. Too many shows at the same time and now we'll have a decade(s) long lull.
I'd rather have nothing at all than these guys trying to milk a brand name for money.
That Tawny Newsome workplace Trek pitch is starting to sound pretty good now.
They need to sell the franchise to her and Frakes. They'd be excellent stewards.

Time for a new era?
Not while literal nazis hold the rights
Star Trek: Mirror Universe
The Terran Empire are the protagonists under the Ellison regime.
More like the Confederation from Picard season 2.
Yea I distinctly remember Star Trek being strictly anti-Nazi in its messaging… so that could be problematic
I just wish for a bunch of drama students to cobble something together and show it on YouTube/Nebula/whatever. I honestly believe that the high production value gets in the way of good storytelling and character development.
I totally agree. My only real issue with NuTrek is that it doesn't look crappy enough. The old shows were low budget and you could tell. It was part of their charm.
The costumes alone were divine!
Good riddance, it was too much of a Netflix college melodrama with a Trek skin, psychologically incoherent and on the shallowest side of progressism, as usual for modern american productions.
I absolutely hated the captain, who was a caricature of a bare-foot yoga instructor selling you expensive kale smoothies to "realign your chakras". Shallow AF. American AF. It would have been much more interesting if the protagonist had enrolled to actually kill her, making the show about the consequences of that event (or her survival and the consequences of it. Will she forgive and instruct her killer? Will she get revenge? Etc etc)
It did become interesting in the late episodes, but those should have been the starting ones. Thankfully, there is Strange New World, but even them got into fan-service slop episodes in the latest season (a wedding planning Q? Is that the new version of "the doc is having a scorching tryst with a ghost"/"suddenly, Abraham Lincoln" episode?).
Anyway, Star Trek Prodigy was better at Starfleet Academy than Starfleet Academy actually is.
Oh I do hope that is the end of kurtzman trek.
Enjoying rewatching TNG to get the infuriating hyper-dumb bad-taste of SFA out of my being.
And not all of Paramount's bots or all of Paramount's shills could shield Star Trek Starfleet Academy from reality.
Dear Paramount, I used to buy all of your Star Treks. Now your mobile app is the worst kind of spyware.
Please keep making great shows, so I can buy them later, when your CEO is in jail for you mobile app being ruled illegal.
Thanks!
Should've kept going with Lower Decks...
