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

I have, aside from Prodigy, never heard Paramount, Vicacom, whatever, sell a Star Trek show as β€˜we’re designing this show around this group of people.’

And what happened with Prodigy? Nothing. The world carried on spinning and nothing happened because catering to a specific audience isn't a problem or problematic. It just means that a new audience gets to see a world with reflections of themselves that they normally would not be able to see.

I think you keep missing me saying that I hope it's good, I'm just not optimistic that it will be.

I probably am. Stressed about a few things and yeah. I am sorry if I came off aggressive or anything here.

We're good, dude! I told someone elsewhere in the thread that you're very passionate about this and I think that's a good thing.

I'm also just very particular about language which quite often doesn't help.
