Terry Matalas has admitted as much, yes. Despite what has been written above, we don't actually know what the contractual situation was for any of them. We do know that the show was originally commissioned as a one-off limited season, and was then renewed for seasons two and three (the two...

I was looking forward to that too, before they effectively killed off half of the new characters - and killed my interest with them.

I don't think Maurice was a counsellor in real life. Jean Luc's subconscious inserted him into that role in a coma-dream, and also concealed his identity despite clearly showing his face. It doesn't mean Maurice was a counsellor in real life, any more than it means Jean Luc had forgotten what...

I don't think the show implied that Soong created Khan at all. It implied that he was involved in Khan's eugenics project, which is not the same thing as being the creator of it. I don't believe there is any relationship between the families.

It is, in fact, entirely possible to explore natural, organic character development without burying the show in court hearings, you know. Instead, the show decided to grind itself to a halt by completely removing the characters from their natural, organic development so they could spend the...

I imagine because, unlike Rios, she had spent the intervening years living as a recluse in the middle of nowhere, drowning her sorrows in drugs and alcohol, whereas he was out there captaining a ship of his own, gaining that additional command experience. Honestly, though, these are the...

Rios had served as first officer aboard a Starfleet vessel, one step down from a captaincy, and then captained a private freighter for ten years. How he crewed that vessel is immaterial, really. The years of experience are what count, plus his contribution in the Coppelius crisis, combined with...

See, what you are talking about here is not at all what I am talking about. I am not saying 'they should have stayed together as a crew' (although that is definitely a story that could have been told, based on where S1 left them). I'm saying 'since S2 decided to throw most of the same characters...

But the thing is, he did return to Starfleet, once he knew the truth about what happened all those years ago. He did seem perfectly at home and at ease in command of Stargazer. If the show wants us to believe that 'he never was going to fit in as the captain of the Stargazer' then it needed to...

I could talk about this at length, but will have to come back to this thread another day, when I'm not pressed for time.

Since I'm on a roll grumbling about how these exit stories were written, I'd like to issue a reminder that Agnes Jurati's damage was not that she was lonely. Agnes Jurati had depression and anxiety which lied to her that she was lonely, and an actual sensible and satisfying end to her arc would...

Oh yeah, a canon lesbian relationship was always going to be catnip to fanfic writers - so let us remember that the writers did not come up with it themselves, it was pitched to them by the actors. Without that, I imagine Seven and Raffi would have had the exact same plot only without any...

Seems unlikely to me. I've followed Cabrera's career off and on since he was in Heroes all those years ago, and pretty much everyone he's ever worked with seems to love him and love working with him, he's maintained long friendships with people he worked with on previous projects spanning almost...

The dialogue in 2.01 clearly says that the holos were merged, not deleted. It's why Seven grumbles about Emmett having therapeutic plug-ins (which came from Emil). Jeri Ryan must have misremembered that line when she gave interviews months after the fact.

At that point, hadn't Q already said that he had just enough power to get the four of them back to the future? Taking Teresa and Ricardo wouldn't have been an option. The decision to stay came after the gang had already resigned themselves to staying in the past permanently, and since Teresa and...

I did mind losing him, and keeping the holos wouldn't have been much consolation (Cabrera has said in interviews that he prefers playing the real thing) but I honestly think they are gone, too. And I didn't buy how they told the story either. Everything that made the character interesting in S1...

The Khan file was an old file from 1996. He pulled it out because he'd lost all his electronic files, so the old hardcopy file was an indication that he was going back to basics and starting again from scratch - i.e. a hint that he'd been involved with Khan's group back in the 1990s.

Honestly, I think La Sirena is gone. Timey-wimey. It was Alt!Sirena that went back in time and became Agnes's Borg ship, but technically it was also Alt!Agnes and Alt!Rios who went back in time and never came back, so if they simply disappeared from the present, then so did La Sirena. And if La...

Decent episode. Every episode this season has been watchable. But the season as a whole is decidedly less than the sum of its parts. The chaos behind the scenes, with covid restrictions and changing showrunners, is a bit too apparent on the screen. And I am very unhappy about the way Rios and...

Yeah, I know. But you know what I mean.
