I: Am just not interested in

Star Trek:

  • Discovery
  • SNW

Unspecified (specify): They're prequels.

I already imagined the backstories for the shows I've seen... are you not supposed to? A prequel isn't going to ever line up to how I imagined the backstory (how could it, everyone has a different imagination) so there's always going to be dissonance with a prequel. Not that I hate these shows, just not interested in them.

Make Star Trek Legacy and move the story forward pls, thx.

Sorry, I've already imagined the backstory of Discovery Season 3-5. Those centuries are now off-limits.

Yeah well Discovery totally messes with the established timeline. They have a ship that's more advanced than anything we've ever seen on screen before and yet, it's pre TNG, eh?

It's not that I don't like the writing, or the characters, but the least (literally the very least) they could do is have a bit of respect for the source material.

SNW is so good I'd sooner toss TOS if forced to choose (which I'm not). The musical episode is vastly better than Turnabout: Intruder.

In my mind Strange New Worlds is in a parallel universe. Not the mirror universe, or the Kelvin universe, but another another universe.

But I want to go back to DS9 darn it. I want to know how that all ends.

Don’t you also imagine future developments of the stories you enjoy? I’m already imagining what Starfleet Academy is going to give us, doesn’t matter if it’s a prequel or not. I just have to set my imagined version aside when the actual show airs.
