Absolutely. They should give me what I want, and I'm sure everyone else will learn to love it too.
Paramount apparently still doesn't get it...

- Start date
When they blasted the USS Discovery off into the ludicrously far-off future, I felt that way too. However, LD, PRO and PIC S1 and 2 demonstrate that there’s still some balance in the franchise, and willingness to take risks.
Ironically, I only like about half of that material (I enjoy PRO and PIC S1) myself. But, I absolutely respect the other stuff for trying to keep things fresh, even though it’s not my thing.
We'll never know if that could've been any good or not.
"Flashback" convinced me a Captain Sulu series was something that wasn't meant to be. I didn't dislike it, but it didn't leave me wanting more either.
I like cartoons and I'm a big girl. Even the animated series had some great concepts. I think there's room for a lot in the franchise. And people can always pick and choose what they watch. (Except for fans who must watch everything so as to pick and choose what to bitch about.)
Yep. As this very board proves every day . . . if not every hour.
"The fans" do not speak with one voice and never have.
Tell me, in what era will academy will put into? The 32nd Century?
Thus far the assumption is 32nd century. Matalas tweeted something about it and press blurb hints at it.
There is limited information so naturally it the worst thing ever and amazing all at once.
Apparently also Ensign
My mistake. I clearly forgot about them, even though they're super memorable.
Completely understandable, I too struggle remembering them despite the fact they are Best Characters of the Modern Era, apparently it's been decided.
“The fans” being…who? People on social media who whined about every other modern Trek and happen to like S3 of Picard because it’s a TNG reunion?
There’s nothing to suggest Picard S3 has made any mainstream breakthrough, and thus no compelling commercial reason to have a spin-off of it. If anyone is in a position to know that, it’s Paramount.

Has any Trek really had a “mainstream breakthrough” since TNG?
There was four years between Anson Mount's first appearance as Pike and SNW airing. The idea that Paramount was gonna fast track a Shaw/Seven/Titan whatever series before season 3 is even over was wishful thinking. Do I expect it to happen? Sure. But not like tomorrow.
Technically the Abrams Films but, as far as TV, no.
Right, and even then it really didn’t spawn the Star Trek Cinematic Universe that Paramount was hoping for.
