    Discovery's "cost per first stream"

    You know I love looking at Discovery metrics, from streaming signups to the ratings in Canada! So here's a new angle on it that I discovered today: A bunch of internal Amazon Prime documents leaked a few weeks ago, which led Reuters to take a very interesting look at how Amazon measures the...

    Ratings in Canada

    Canada is the only market where Discovery was actually broadcast, I believe, so its ratings there are relatively public -- and thus a potentially rich source of insight into how the show performed over the course of the season. I've collected here all the ratings information I've been able to...

    Best of 2016: Fan Productions

    We're officially halfway through the final month of 2016, which seems like a good time to start a Best of 2016 thread. Despite everything that's gone on (the Axanar lawsuit turns one year old at the end of the month; the Guidelines are nearing six months in force), it's actually been a pretty...

    Star Trek: Excelsior releases "What Happened on Gevinon Prime"

    I haven't posted an episode release notice for ST:E in this forum for, like, three years. I figured that might just be long enough that there will be some around here who haven't heard of us before. Plus, with Pendant's fan shows dead and Eric Busby stepping down at Darker Projects, I feel...

    On June 1st, Excelsior Reveals the Truth

    The Excelsior episode you've waited three and a half years to hear is just around the corner. Why was Leo Amara killed? What is the Sword of Damocles? Why did the Borg only send one cube? All this -- and more -- is about to be answered. On June 1st, 2011, "The Man From Syracuse" arrives on...

    Rather Small Art Request

    Hi, all. My first time posting in here. I run a decent little Trek audio show. We're doing a little bit of a website revamp. Our episodes page has gotten a bit overlong, and it's only getting longer. So our plan is to put the episodes on separate pages, sorted by season. In order to do...

    A Great Introduction to Star Trek: Excelsior

    A lot of people have asked us lately, "Hey, Team Excelsior! We think your show, which we know is available at StarShipExcelsior.com, sounds like a rollicking good time. But the stories are so long! Can't we just get a standalone episode so we can listen and see if we enjoy it?" You asked, we...

    Why Don't You Listen To Audio Trek?

    This thread isn't an accusation or a browbeating or a harangue, but an honest question. And, if you'd rather skip my explanation and just start answering the question, feel free: Why don't you listen to audio Trek? It's a well-known fact that audio Trek series get less "viewership" (usually...

    Excelsior Crosses "The Line!"

    Once, a long time ago, after Star Trek: Excelsior's 2008 April Fool's Day joke episode, somebody over at Darker Projects commented, "Geeze. You guys will go to any lengths for a good April Fool's Day prank, won't you?" He had no idea. Today at Excelsior, it's April Fool's Day in September...
