    ‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Renewed for Fifth and Final Season

    Given the intensely negative response to any cancellation notices for shows I don't blame them. They're try to avoid any backlash further than what will occur

    Yep, Grade left the BBC to run Channel Four in 87/88. Jonathan Powell took over from him, and wasn't up to the job (unfortunately, we both went to UEA).

    It was likely used during the Zone's initial construction, then deactivated. Once Borusa found the control chamber, he was able to re-enable it. Not unlike having a remote starter for your vehicle. True, it was to be canceled but fan outcry had its status changed to "hiatus". The show came...

    Grade wasn't the real problem. He accepted advice from his subordinates (Jonathan Powell) and as a showman defended it in public.

    In 1985 Douglas Adams gave a talk to Imperial's Wellsoc (promoting Meaning of Liff). He said something like "When I heard they were cancelling Who to save money, I pointed out that it earned more than it cost. They said 'It doesn't work that way due to internal accountancy'. When I suggested...

    Spoilers Variety about the future of Star Trek

    ENT's cancellation announcement in February of 2005 just trickled out to the press that afternoon and wasn't exactly shouted from the rafters.

    Disco didn't (its cancellation was announced while the cast was at sea on the Star Trek Cruise).

    ...there was no replacement producer to fill his shoes and various other things (like Worldwide trying to make a movie). But the ultimate cancellation wasn't due to Grade. In fact, in a recent interview on a Blu-ray set, Grade seemed unaware that the show was saved at all after the initial...

    And the Next Cancelled Show is...

    I recently thought about the possibility of this TV series being cancelled. There is no official situation yet. But Netflix does not open any work that has a drop in viewership in the second season. If the viewership had dropped in the third or fourth season. Or if it was a book series that they...

    For me, the biggest plot hole is, if there was already a transmat terminal in Rassilon's tomb, why the heck was it necessary to involve the Doctors in the first place? Just to get there to turn on the transmat? But it's the same make as the transmats in the Citadel, and it's in working order, so...

    Things that frustrate us all

    My mom annoys me, I want to do volunteer work in a nursing home. I visited 2 and planned to visit a third. Place 1 is close to me but my dad lives there now and neglected my emails asking for the necessary paperwork, place 2 is in a different county but doesn't have my dad and immediately...

    They could always bring them back for a streaming movie. :whistle: For now, TOS reboot movies are the property of Paramount Pictures (the film division). Getting the rights to do TOS material would likely involve pulling teeth (Fox and Warner Bros. had to jump through a ton of hoops to do...

    Thanks for reporting this here. Fascinating. Definitely something I’m not sure I’d be terribly hyped for unless the seasons were longer, but still.

    That would have been amazing, and the uproar from the people who didn't like stuff like Subspace Rhapsody or Those Old Scientists would have been glorious.

    I think it's the depiction of the Irish in the episodes that some people get upset over. According to an article in SFX, they considered doing an animated SNW episode in the style of TAS I would of loved that, TAS is underrated imo...

    The Classic/Retro Pop Culture Thread

    I did some volunteer DJ stuff in the early 80s down in Hartford. :rommie: This seems uncharacteristically petty, especially for Fonzie. Richie's got a good gig here. Plus there's the likelihood of overflow chicks. Wasn't it mentioned that the guys have a band? Richie is now in a position to...

    The Best of Peter David

    True, but then we basically know what the war did and its afteraffects; likewise with the Drakh War, which even in the novels we don’t actually see. So in a way, I feel they’re like the Romulan War: sure, you could do it, but we already know the important things about it (unless the narrative...

    Spoilers Marvel Cinematic Universe spoiler-heavy speculation thread

    Helstrom was originally going to be a part of a series of Marvel shows on Hulu featuring Marvel horror characters, and it was supposed to be as much part of the MCU as the ABC shows and the Netflix shows. Take from you will from that. There was also supposed to be a Ghost Rider show as part of...
