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

I was under the impression that TNG just split eugenics War and world War 3 into two separate conflicts. One in the 90s, one in the mid 21st. Possibly grouped together colloquially, but not moving the eugenics war or Khan's origin.
It's still a retcon regardless and ignores TOS, which is hardly a surprise given Gene's attitude at the time TNG was written.


was pretty clearly stated that the Eugenics War was the last World War and every series since TNG has made that a mid 21st century conflict. So you can either ignore the 90s dates from Space Seed and WoK, or you can ignore the rest of the franchise from 1987 and onward.
Exactly so. The timeline doesn't line up from TOS.


Yeah, no. The tiny group of people it actually would please are parts of the fandom who should be thoroughly ignored.
Honestly, making it all a fantasy would undermine many people's investment in the show the way Pike resisted the fighting on the Kaylar in The Cage at first.
 
Who? All 12 of them? None of whom are going to watch anyway, given its status as “NuTrek garbage” in these hypothetical “whole lot of fans’” eyes? The idea is absurd.
I still thought Strange New Worlds being cancelled would make these fans celebrate in the streets, and not watch but someone is still forcing them to watch it. :shrug:
