At least he weren't trying to show teenage drama down my throat.
What I want to know is what market research they did to come to the conclusion that this would be positively received, who was the show aimed at, because it certainly isn't Star Trek fans.
No one was “shoving anything down your throat.”
You don’t need to watch.
You may have been the key 15-34 year old demographic that advertisers and marketers target back in the 1990s. If so, you are not the key demographic now. Why do you think others should be paying for your preferences?
Because the franchise wouldn't exist if it weren't for my preferences you pathologically obnoxious twit. I mean seriously do you actually think that anyone outside of the fandom cares about what happens here?
Our opinions are the only valid opinions.
Which of course rather invalidates your position since the majority disagree.
Hence the down votes
The franchise wouldn’t exist if my 90 something year old mother-in-law and women like her didn’t watch it all and buy the books and magazines since 1966.
Or, if I and my partner and others hadn’t been watching since TOS was in first run.
Having defended TNG against TOS fans who wanted it killed, and having seen TAS killed by fan campaigns in the mid 1970s, I have no time for people in their 40s and 50s who would rather kill a show than have new Trek that might be meaningful to my GenZ kids.
