My friends call me Kate (pronouns: She/Her), and I'm a lifelong Trekkie and Star Wars fan. I enjoy movies, TV, and comic books, and I also write fanfiction. I'd be posting more fandom stuff if the world wasn't going to heck.

"McConnell would never be allowed to drive a car, babysit young children, or file his own taxes. Why, then, should a cognitively incapacitated 82-year-old retain one of the most important positions of power within the national government?"

TOS could play around and be more experimental because it wasn’t a traditional ensemble, it was the Kirk, Spock and McCoy show. SNW wanted be a traditional ensemble and serialise romantic relationships, which isn’t what TOS was.

!["I get it, and we love those, too," Goldsman tells TVLine, but "that's not our show." He points out "it's in the title": "Our worlds are genres." He adds that "I really do respect and hear the criticism that: 'When you have 10 episodes [per season], should they be more homogenous?" But "for us, the answer was no, because the original series always jumped around in genre.'
." (Goldsman does concede, though, that the originaliStar Trek" series "had more episodes per season," airing at least 24 each year.) "Part of what 'Star Trek' did well was use genre for storytelling, and that was what we wanted to explore in this series," he adds: "We are 'Star Trek' fans, deeply, and we try to respond to the fandom in us - and you can't really please all the people all the time."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2hhuugb5gch2cgai3nisa76s/bafkreigicvybuqaicce4rblp6fnqgf2d35ra4jmbogkt6q7x5l2zdqjpqu)

Except in response to the reception S3 received, they stated the opposite and they were filming the final seasons at the time.
Production can’t keep telling people the show is going to be more conventional, then get defensive when it turns out to be a lie and people get frustrated with the show.
