I dunno man, LD is like half fan service and half universe building, and it’s my favorite thing they’ve produced in the last decade and a half.
Can we just get Mike McMahan in charge of everything, please?
I mean, Alex Kurtzman hired the guy, and is EP if “Lower Decks” along with all the other shows…
I am very aware of Kurtzman’s influence on the franchise. I think he’s not the right guy to be in charge. It really feels like this is a Dave Filoni/Kathleen Kennedy situation but in Star Trek.

I’m not sure what, exactly, you mean by this, but both of those people have had pretty acclaimed careers.
I find it hard to imagine looking at the Trek series since 2017 and making a convincing case that the franchise is being mishandled.
Believe it or not, not everyone jerks off to Lower Decks. Its fun and has some great moments but the unbridled fan service can be unfunny and grating.
I remain of the opinion that New Trek has some of the most annoying sci-fi fan service outside of Star Wars. given every opportunity there’s references to other trek things crammed in everywhere
