Discovery ending with Season 5

Several articles have mentioned paramount needs better programming to draw in new sign-ups. Pretty much why it was abruptly canceled after only 5 thirteen part episodes.
Yeah but did they get that info from Paramount themselves? Or were they just speculating?

So, it's interpretation of another person's statements so not really valid.
 
So, they cited sources then? As in "Paramount published this and stated why" type sources?

If not, then equally plausible is that Discovery was getting too expensive, and Paramount wants to save money because streaming services are now a loss leader.

Just so glad it's over. So happy.
 
So, the answer is no evidence then. Just assumption.

Good to know.

Paramount plus isn't popular and isn't making money. They are course correcting with Picard. Obviously that is what's happening. It might be too late now. Hopefully they will decide to let Kurtzman go and bring in metalas as the head of Stat trek. He is at least a fan of star trek himself and gets it.
 
Kurtzman may be out. He never was a fan if star trek and had no business being ahead of it creatively. He has nearly killed the franchise.
I don't want a fan running the franchise. So hopefully Kurtzman or someone like him remains.

Terry Matalas is not in my top 100 of choices to run Star Trek.

That has nothing to do with Discovery and everything to do with their lack of any other content and market saturation of streaming services.
