They're honestly wasting their time with this crap. Paramount is gonna lose a lot of money over this.
shareI doubt it. As the article states:
“the serialized thriller “Picard” concluded last year, when it ranked, along with “Strange New Worlds,” among Nielsen’s 10 most-watched streaming original series for multiple weeks. Nearly one in five Paramount+ subscribers in the U.S. is watching at least one “Star Trek” series, according to the company, and more than 50% of fans watching one of the new “Trek” shows also watch at least two others. The new shows air in 200 international markets and are dubbed into 35 languages. As “Discovery” launches its fifth and final season in April, “Star Trek” is in many ways stronger than it’s ever been.”
They wouldn’t commission all this new ST content for the fun of it, would they? I suspect they’ve done the sums.
Personally I was sold when I saw Michelle Yeoh’s face on the poster. She makes everything great.
That was a great article on SNW, S31 and others. Hope SNW has a long run, plus movies every year. Full title:
