I suppose you are right, it makes sense what you are saying and I suppose it gives the writers of the shows less chance to make continuity errors like previous series. Just a shame an series from TMP era wasn't done.

I believe so, too.
I'd love the idea of an Ent-C series, but it would be bitter sweet as you know how it ends. Going back to the B would give you a pretty much blank canvas, after all there are only two established characters aboard. I love both the Excelsior- and Ambassador-Classes, so any chance to see more of these two ships is a big plus for me.
However, I would like to see a post Dominion War series, maybe along the same lines of New Frontier - a ship deep inside Cardassian space on a humanitarian mission. We saw the war and how bad things got, but we never got to see the hard work of rebuilding all that had been lost, the anger and bitterness the war had caused, the loss and grief of the survivors. I think it would make for an interesting and compelling series, the crew have a job to do whilst dealing with a lot of their own issues and pain, over-worked and under-staffed.

I'm not interested in watching any series set in the original Star Trek continuity. The very idea makes me nauseous.
I don't remember how many were left, but I'm sure Tasha wasn't the only survivor.
In any case, I highly doubt that the fate of those survivors would be much better than the ones who died in the battle. The Romulans probably did not treat their prisoners that well. Assuming the survivors weren't all interrogated and then executed.
As for Well of Souls: AFAIK, none of the Ent-C crew - save Garrett herself, and Richard Castillo if he's in it - who were in that novel, were still on the ship when it was destroyed (Vulcan's Heart).

Did you watch the Star Wars prequels?
Did you watch the Battlestar Galactica telefilm "Razor" ?
If so, what was the point?
Two of them in theaters and one on DVD, and in retrospect regret the waste of time.
Nah, it was the best $10 or so dollars I paid to take a two hour nap. Wait, no it wasn't. I could've just napped at home for free.
I still don't understand AOTC, but I'm pretty sure it's because my attention wandered throughout. Possibly it would have made more sense in a movie theater, which in my experience involves less interesting opportunity for distraction.
While I did fall asleep in all of the prequels (and to an extent during the rerelease of the originals), I did manage to catch them again on DVD and cable. AOTC is a muddled mess of events that lacks any narrative cohesion.
Of course the next one will be done in nuTrek style - the studio would hardly agree to anything else. oldTrek = failed, as far as they're concerned.
i wish they would do a series from the klingon perspective, id definatly watch that
Actually, in this media market today, that could work.
funny, but I considered, nu-trek to be more similar to old trek than anything else. Anything out of Kirk's time would be a reimagining anyway so it might as well be as different as possible while still retaining the new Abrams style and the best stuff inherant from TOS until it is destroyed and recreated yet again.
But the 'Abrams' style' ditches all the best stuff from TOS.
Those were a more general thing. We all knew Anakin would become Darth Vader, for example, but not how. We didn't know how many specific people would die, or the exact circumstances.
The Enterprise-C, on the other hand, we know the specific method of its destruction, we know when, and we know that everyone on board will die. Of course a series set on board that ship doesn't have to have the same crew that it had when it was destroyed (except probably Captain Garrett).
Because in the end it had become stale, lifeless and ridiculously self-referential.
