News Exclusive: Scott Bakula Eyeing Star Trek Return In President Archer Series Pitch From ‘Enterprise’ Producer

[The Wormhole]

There's approximately 700 years separating Legacy from SFA. That's plenty of uncharted ground to cover without bumping up against other shows' canon.

Except Legacy as the Blessed Lord Terry, hallowed be thy name has explained it is just going to be Catching up with the Cardassians, Bajor Revisited, Chilling with Martok and so on in that order. I for one am more interested in seeing something new rather than getting the 1990s regurgitated.

Blessed be the Maker.

How much longer is Trek going to continue to wallow in the 22nd-23rd centuries?

Not to be a Canadian with a chart, but this statement is ludicrous when one considers the behemoth that has been the 24th/25th Century era of Star Trek. "Legacy" would be just another continuation of that bloated mass.

We've just finished Strange New Worlds.

Oh, yeah? last I heard there were still two more seasons to go!

I'm seriously looking forward to the remaining episodes, by the way.

It's no longer in production.

 

[CorporalCaptain]

It's no longer in production.

Has anyone not involved in production seen any of the remaining episodes?

No?

Then, we haven't "just finished" it. We haven't finished it at all.

Whatever.

My previous actually post addressed your earlier post.

It's no longer in production.

This is factually incorrect. Although principle photography has wrapped, the series is now in post-production, which is still a part of the production process. They're working on the VFX, music, editing, and myriad other things that happen then.

No, it's correct. SNW is factually no longer in production, production ends when principal photography ends which happened for SNW in late December 2025. Post-production literally means after production, production being done is in the name.

You are right that post-production is part of the production process but the production process is not the same as production. The production process consists of three separate phases, pre-production, production and post-production.

Apologies to all, I stand corrected. Thank you.

But, I think it's more than clear that we've not just finished SNW yet. Not even the people working on it are finished with it, which was my point, although I expressed it incorrectly.

I'd watch both.

Mind you, I wanted a Picard that actually followed up on Season 1's worldbuilding.

I'd have liked five more episodes that followed up on PIC 1's first five episodes.

Blessed be the Maker.

Bless the coming and going of Him.

May His passage cleanse the world.

 

[Uncle Sock]

I'd prefer a new show set in the Lost Era between Generations and TNG or one set in the 29th century with a timeship over any Legacy, Janeway or President Archer series.

It's my opinion that 90% of PIC was total shit, but I do applaud their attempt at coming up with some world-building for 2399, introducing new characters, creating some initial mystery, and giving Data a much better 'death' than he had in Nemesis.

However, one thing that still annoys me to this day is the out-of-context spoilers and 'Children of Mars' Short Trek which gave the impression that the androids/synths rebelled of their own free will, instead of being reprogrammed by some stupid AI-hating Romulan cult. Tying in to "Measure of a Man" where Picard had a fear that one day Starfleet would build an army of Datas to essentially use as slave labor could have been such a better plot for season 1, and instead they were just an afterthought with no more sentience than Alexa. But instead we get a secret planet of Data wannabe androids with no backstory as to who made them or how they attained sentience and found the planet. Great writing, Mike Chabon!

They were obviously from the Mirror Universe.

Also, some Soong guy made them. He was actually in the show.

You can only do so much in ten episodes.

So what?

Ah yes, I misremembered that he had built them all. I just thought he was hiding them on the planet.

You can do a lot in ten episodes, if you're actually a good storyteller.

 

[fireproof78]

I much prefer ten episodes.

This Archer show is just the modern day Captain Worf.

And Captain Sulu before that.
