Have you seen the AI videos on Youtube made by that Starfleet Dreams channel? They recently dropped a Starfleet Academy one and we have officially hit the point where AI makes better star trek than humans. The uncanny valley nature of the aesthetic is off-putting as fuck but that actually sort of works with the Tears of Bajor one since Cardies are a bit uncanny valley to begin with.It’s not really a writers’ room problem so much as a studio brain problem, which is that the people making Star Trek appear to be embarrassed by it. They keep trying to sell it as a Netflix dramedy you half-watch in a hoodie.
“90210 in space” was never going to work, but Paramount needs to accept that there is no vast, untapped audience of normies who will be duped into watching Not-Trek.
