    I’m glad to get any kind of 5th season.

    If there’s a new show, I would rather that they time skip forever to the end of TOS, after TAS.

    A late year 4 and year 5 show would fit with the age of the cast, especially Paul Wesley as Kirk. Even Celia, who was a young Uhura in the first season of SNW is catching up given the slow pace of production and release with the pandemic and strike impacting timelines. Even if they just carried on, a TOS-based SNW spin-off wouldn’t be premiered before late 2027 or early 2028 at best.

    Disappointed, but not surprised that SNW was sold as the lead into TOS - the entire show seems to have been based on that pitch to the senior executives obsessed with reboots.

    It’s a great show but not what it could have been but likely the only version of it that could have been greenlit in this past decade.
