I've quite enjoyed Lower Decks. Definitely "Trek Lite", but at least it's enjoyable and a good laugh.

My Star Trek pipe dream is they bring in Ira Behr and let him revive DS9 as they outlined in the doc. I didn't love every idea they proposed (I'm burned out on Section 31) but I liked a lot of it. Specifically the idea that the Jem'Hadar would convert to worshiping the Prophets and align with Bajor is interesting, and logically makes a lot of sense.

You could even bring back Sisko a few times. |

Why would the Jem'Hadar worship the Prophets?

They were engineered to worship the Founders, it would make sense if the Founders freed them that they'd want something to fill that void. And given the role the Prophets played in the war, the Jem'Hadar would know they're real and respect their power. |

Well, my next question would be "Why would the Founders release them?" To which your reply should be "Go watch the documentary and find out!" I've mentioned this before, but the early DS9 Relaunch novels aren't bad. The books between "Avatar" and "Unity" form a pseudo season 8. The usual caveats about tie-in fiction apply, of course. |

Maybe the comic book will be a hit and we finally get to see some Klingons in action on the big screen.
In 2022, Star Trek: Klingons will chronicle the legendary life of Kahless the Unforgettable. IDW Publishing announced it would release Star Trek: Klingons in February. The comic book is the first installment in a series of extra-long one-shots spotlighting the Star Trek franchise's most iconic alien species. Writers Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly, writers/showrunners of the hit series Star Trek: Year Five, team up with artist Timothy Green II (Star-Lord, Annihilators, Animal Man) to tell the legend of Kahless the Unforgettable, the greatest warrior of the Klingon Empire, from the death of his cowardly brother Morath to his victory at Three Turn Bridge. "I was, in large part, raised by Star Trek… and no culture helped me come to terms with my masculinity, my anger, and my personal code of honor more than the Klingons," says Lanzing in a press release. "So when I tell you the only thing more exciting to me than taking the Enterprise crew on their final journey in Star Trek: Year Five is getting to show the man behind the myth of Kahless The Unforgettable, you can believe it."

They actually don't go into it. I guess the assumption would be that the Founders actually did turn over a new leaf, because if they didn't the war would eventually start back up. And if their intentions were disingenuous Odo would know about it through the link.

The posters on the Trek forums seem to love the new shows. Mostly. Somebody is watching this stuff or there wouldn't be so many new shows, right? I don't get it, but I don't understand a lot of things so it's just par for the course at this point. |

I think they are just throwing shit out there so they have content for their streaming platform. Got a T-Mobile email saying they were giving customers a 1 year subscription to Paramount+ so I figured I'd go check out their content. Even free I didn't sign up.
