It looks like the upcoming Lower Decks season will be the last one 😭😭 I didn't have any expectations for this show but it has quickly grown to be one of my favorites. I'll miss it

Well, again, I have no issue with the demographics thing in a specific show. I had no criticisms of Prodigy's being a Star Trek show catered for a specific demographic. It's that it's looking like it will be the only show.

And, I admit, I'm suspicious of what the executives will do with this project.

It’s that it’s looking like it will be the only show.

No dude, it isn't. You keep saying this but it's not true. They're currently working on Season 3 of SNW and the concept of it ending after 5 seasons is pure speculation. They're also currently working on two different Star Trek movies. They also were working on SNW long before it was announced because it takes time behind the scenes to write out the concept for a show, work on the idea, figure out the cast/crew and what not. The push for Legacy by fans is as intense as SNW but it took them almost two years to announce SNW because they had to make sure everything behind the scenes lined up.

There's no reason to believe that it's going to be the only show.

I already said I was speculating. But I my speculation is based on the fact that every new Trek show so far has gotten five seasons or fewer. I don't know that SNW would be an exception to that.
