It'll be interesting to see if Shaw makes through the next three weeks. He's been through the grinder at least twice now. This time he looks like they did a number on him good.
He'll be fine. His injuries seem healed by Episode 8 based on the photos.
They still have to payoff his arc with the Borg, and him also finally calling Hansen as 'Seven'
Why are people so obsessed with making a Seven of Nine Trek series?
I don't think the majority want a Seven show specifically, they just wanted more 25th century Trek.
I'm in agreement that a 'Captain Seven' show is not that appealing. It would require too much homework to draw in new viewers, since most of her character development spans 10 seasons behind her.
While Jeri is charismatic AF, Seven wouldn't be as engaging as a series lead character.
