High Demand for SNW

Aside from the resoundingly positive reviews thus far...this seems like pretty good news:

OFMD is also awesome

 

Enjoy it while it lasts, Obi-Wan Kenobi is arriving next week.

 

SNW has earned its success so far, three decent-to-good episodes right out the gate. Hopefully it's settling in for a long haul - I suppose seven 26-episode seasons is a pipe dream these days, but if we can at least get a good number of 10-episode seasons, that'll be enough.

It'd be interesting to see SNW's viewing figures stacked up against Discovery and Picard in particular.

 

Next to Strange New Worlds, My second most anticipated series is Obi-Wan Kenobi.

 

Well deserved the show is really good but like has been said Kenobi is next week and Disney is well known for targeting their competition.

 

Obi-Wan: KHHHHAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!

Beru: Have you lost your mind?

Obi-Wan: I'm sorry, I have no idea why I just yelled that.

Owen: That wizard's just a crazy old man, Beru.

 

I'll freely admit it, as big of a Trek fan that I am, I'm a bigger SW fan still. I'm looking forward to Kenobi more than I was SNW.

But both are about to be trumped by Top Gun: Maverick. My wife and I are going to an early screening on the 24th (VIP box seats no less!), and I'll probably have seen it a few times in the theater before I even get around to EP2 of Kenobi.

 

I'm watching both.

 

I'm looking forward to Obi-Wan, but SNW has my heart right now.

 

I used to be a huge Star Wars fan but After 6 horrible prequels and sequels I have completely lost interest. But my trekkieness is intact.

the successful launch of SNW is probably why Warren Buffett bought $2.6B worth of Paramount stocks recently.

 

Both are series by series for me. But, if the PT and ENT couldn't drive me away then current productions are probably ok.

 

What's a Kenobi?

 

Aren't they those big RV's people travel cross-country in?

 

Has our Chart Kaiser seen this?

 

We'll hear as soon as he figures out how to spin the data in a negative light.

 

The beauty of the Interwebz is that you can watch both. They aren't both on at the same time.

 

I do NOT miss the days of "So which show do I watch now and which do I wait for a repeat?"

 

Yeah. I remember planning my Saturday mornings very carefully as a kid.

Is he related to old Ben Kenobi?

 

Currently making charts to disprove it, I'm sure
