Kurtzman intentionally killed Legacy?

The show has also been in Development Hell for five years :shifty: :


It may or may not happen.
He's still running two television series and a movie for the foreseeable future - that is a lot for one person to manage. I heavily doubt an empty slot for a Trek series will stay open very long.

All kidding aside, a show runner is defined by the WGA as a show's head writer (they may or may not be an Executive Producer).

Well he did say from the beginning that he was moving on to other projects. Plus Vision is only a limited series.

I've always strongly maintained that you wouldn't see this until after SNW would be finished. And if it gets 5 seasons, then that would be 2027 at the earliest. Enemy Mine and Vision would likely be completed or close to completion by then.

It does leave a nice gap for other 25th century ideas, on the plus side. 30 minute comedies, for example, or a Picard movie. And I would definitely buy the idea of Jack Crusher being near the centre seat by the time, which seemed like the plan. Who does he think he is anyway, Kelvin Kirk?:nyah:

SNW S4 is slated to begin production in January.

I don't see it getting five seasons (S4 was renewed early). They're going to be bumping up against TOS.

Don't get me started on that Godawful sitcom (I refuse to accept it as Star Trek).

Seven gets the E-G and I'm just supposed to say, "So long, hasta luego"? With all those loose ends?

No way! :mad:

Yeah, so it would likely air in 2026, meaning 2027 would be a bit quiet. I'm optimistic it'll get a 5th season :)

Nooooooo, Kelvin Kirk was just an example, I dont think Jack would be Cap. I'm just talking about Crusher overtaking most of the bridge crew so early. Nepotism, and all that.
 
Maybe if Legacy ever happens they can make up a retcon reason as to why Jack looked over 30 when he was only fifteen. ;)

Terry said that he wanted Jack to look "world-weary".

Five seasons was pushing it on Disco (They were planning Season SIX! :eek: )

P+ cancelled Disco while the cast was away at sea on the Star Trek Cruise! :mad: :scream:

I'm more concerned about Raffi. :shifty:

I'm afraid she's going to be killed off in the name of Jack being named XO. :mad:

I'm delighted that the Seven & Raffi Funkos sold out on StarTrek.Com. It shows that #SaffiNation is a thing. :)

Well, if they're running into TOS, it has to either jump years or have a few more seasons. What year is the show in currently, 2259? You might be right, though?

I think she'll be ok, there's a whole "will they, won't they" arc between her and Seven to play with. I guess it depends on Michelle Hurd and her availability.

It would actually be nice to reintroduce Elnor to the crew of the Enterprise, as the true legacy of TNG should be former enemies turning friends. Trek shows need more Romulans.

I'm looking forward to getting my Seven Funko!

He(Kirk) had 3 years at the academy and a rank of lieutenant?

Jack Crusher is an awful captain choice.


ETA: clarification.

Let's start with a good portion of the crew being underdeveloped (the La Forge sisters, Dr. Ohk, Mura, Esma).
Those aren't loose ends. They were secondary characters. Their entire purpose was to be "The medical officer, Navigator, communication officer, etc. of the Titan." That's it.

They fulfilled their purpose.

If we never see any of them again, they would not be considered loose ends anymore than the crew members we saw on the Enterprise in season 2 of Discovery being replaced by main characters on Strange New Worlds.
