Obviously, the show’s ending was a “just in case we don’t get renewed” scenario. Just edit out the Enterprise thing and make Saru the captain, and you have a series finale instead of just a season finale.

They had planned to do the series final, or the last movie, I forget which, as live action, but it never came to fruition. So they may already have a start on it.

Yes, you need to keep up people’s expectations. To represent a future that looks less advanced than now is just dumb and handicaps your storytelling unnecessarily. Sci Fi, especially Star Trek, goes on the principle of “just go with it”. Canon and continuity are one thing, but the nitpicking is getting ridiculous.…

Well, the Enterprise D was basically a cruise ship - families and all. Voyager and Enterprise E were more like warships, and look more “realistic”.

By all means, lets stick to the formula Star Trek everyone wants, that gave us the heavily criticized Voyager and the cancelled Enterprise, instead of trying something new.

A social issues show from the 1970s redeveloped by people named Gloria and Mike? Did Archie and Edith help too?

Of course, since Superman flying faster - or even at - the speed of light would require infintite energy, that doesn’t help explain it :)

I love Natalie Portman as an actress, but if we are going to embrace someone from the prequels, come on...Samuel Freakin’ L. Jackson.

Hey, it’s Bono.

I am normally one to defend the Simpsons, as it is still better than most of the crap out there.

I get that she was coming from a good place. But those male directors didn’t nominate themselves, so why make them feel bad for being nominated?

Trying to date someone is not sexual harassment. Taking out your junk uninvited is.

Those litle cinnamon bread twist things are pretty good.

Chump reminds me of when my 4 year old would drink from a cup - two hands. Since Chump acts like a 4 year old, it all makes sense now.

Years ago, the role of professional victim used to be played by liberals. But nowadays, conservtives have become the full time victims: “The media is out to get us”. “Hollywood is out to get us”. “Gays are out to get us”. “Minorities are out to get us”. “Imigrants are out to get us” “Mueller is out ot get us”.…

Yeah, what’s the point of becoming a cool Jedi is you can’t use it to get chicks?
