General Trek Questions and Observations

[Shawnster]

I don't know it has been discussed here or in another thread but do you think we will ever get anything like the hypospray in real life medicine?

Yes

The idea behind the hypospray is older than Star Trek. A crude form has existed since the 50s.

Finally saw Siskel and Ebert's Trek movie reviews. I really enjoyed them, and it reminded me why I think the OG movies more succinctly encapsulate what's best about TOS than the series the movies are inspired by.

Thank you for that.... Very interesting.

BTW was scrolling star trek reddit and came across this thread thought I would share it as it really warmed my heart how Trek has helped people

Please no. I don't have a relationship with Star Trek because of 26 episode seasons. I got in to Star Trek because of one episode. Episode count is such BS to me. It undersells the audience that the only way to possibly create commitment or fan status is quantity.

17 eps per year I think is a perfect Middle Ground between the old 22-26 eps per year model & the current streaming 10-13 eps per year model.

You can split the year into Trimesters, 17 eps per Trimester/Season per year.

Leave 1 week for X-Mas/New Years TV Programming.

If they really want to go this route then just give us 4 direct to video movies every year. Drop a 2+ hour TV movie every 3 months. Gives us 4 epic stories every year, can focus on a different character or 2 each movie.
