It should end with Riker and Deanna on the holodeck
I’d actually be ok with this.
And Picard.
Retcon them both.
No it’s a cgi aged-down Wil Wheaton, and Riker barges in to tell him he’s late for his shift at navigation or whatever.
Are you saying it was a holo novel with Wesley Crusher playing as Michael Burnham?
Some ferangi conned him into playtesting and debugging a new holonovel under the guise of it being a prototype training course for cadets. The whole series was the b-plot of a TNG episode about the ethics of clone voting or something.
You are not well.
Am I alone in liking that ending?
I like it too! I would say there are literally dozens of us but you’re the first I’ve ever encountered in the wild.
I’m sorry but… I’m particularly offended by you pointing out numbers here. 50 years? Fuck you. Just… fuck you.
TNG aired in 1987, so it’s only 37 years. Whomever it was that wrote that headline stretched a bit to generate some extra clicks. Yeah, TAS ended in 1974, but there’s still 13 years in between where there was no Star Trek, which is apparently getting lumped into the Star-Trek-that-Riker-has-shown-up-in bundle.
They are counting the time spent as a twinkle in his mom’s eye.
Meh. Looking forward to this show dying and making way for the good, new Trek shows, like LD, SNW, and Picard’s Season 3 (sorta).
So tired of Michael Burnham and her stupid “Magical Burnham Problem Solving Mary-su Solution Express”. Really too bad, because Saru, Tilly, Georgiuo, Staments, Adira, and basically all of the other characters are REALLY interesting in this show. Unfortunately, they didn’t relegate Burnham’s character for being a “get out of writer’s block free card” to the background and that basically doomed it.
Prodigy too, first season was fantastic.
You’ve described precisely how I feel about Disco, Trek is supposed to be about the whole team solving problems but somehow in any century…the destiny of the universe is all about her. Remove deus ex Burnham from the show and it could be so much better. Saru, Stamets and all are great, they’re just background to the Michael story.
I like Discovery, but I have to agree. So many of the narrative problems could have been solved by simply giving the line(s) of dialogue in which Burnham solves a problem to someone else on the bridge. Easy peasy. Mix it up.
Yeah the show would be so much better if they didn’t rely on Burnham as the “solver of all things”. Literally the first thing they do with her when she walks into Starfleet Command after the time jump is go “YO HAVE YOU TRIED THIS SOLUTION TO THE PRIONS?”. It’s like the writers can’t help themselves.
I wouldn’t be surprised if she has a stupid, uninspired speech that is a “These are the voyages” rip off at the end of the finale episode right before they inexplicably promote her to the Admiralty. It would be a fitting f*** you to end the show right in line with what the writers have done so far.
Tilly? Seriously?
What beef you got with Tilly?
didn’t he play grudge
I am so sorry but I cannot give you the point. You forgot to say “umm…actually”.

well I’ll be
Homie I’m 37 not 50.
I was going to mention “you could’ve also said ‘first Star Trek since Enterprise to end’” but then I realized I forgot about Picard.
I was going to ask “But what about Prodigy” but that hasn’t actually aired its second season yet.
So yeah, first Star Trek show since The Animated Series to end without having Two Takes Frakes, even though I feel that having him on the director’s chair should count.
What? TNG is only 35 years old, so what’s with the 50 years claim?
This hurts my head
