There's a headline going around that a guy is pitching a continuation of the Star Trek TV series of series. My first reaction: extremely cautious optimism. There are a number of problems that face the Star Trek fan of today:
- A show at this stage of development has low success rate of getting to the screen
- Science fiction is more expensive than regular programming, further decreasing the chance it will be picked up
- The guy pitching the show isn't even on wikipedia
- Most shows are bad
There are probably other things I haven't thought of, but that's most of my concern. From the hints he's dropped, it sounds like the guy cares about Star Trek, and has a vision for the show, which is cool.
Would I like to see more Star Trek on Television? Absolutely.
If it was completely neutered like Voyager? Maybe not.
