So what I think this signals, if they dont pick anything up in the next few months it that Star Trek cannot move past its nostalgia audience. That means once they are gone, so is Star Trek as culturally relevant. Congrats internet fools, you did this!

EXCLUSIVE: “Star Trek: Starfleet Academy” will end with its upcoming second season. The show failed to find a significant audience, not ranking on Nielsen’s Top 10 streaming viewership charts at any point during its 10-episode first season. wp.me/pc8uak-1lH3kQ

the worst kind of people will cheer and holler about starfleet academy show's ending, but the funniest thing will always be that they will never get the star trek that they want, because what they want is never aligned with trek values :)

Absolute bombshell. General McMaster casually admits on live TV that the IDF is now striking Russian ships in the Caspian Sea and the US is blocking Chinese fuel shipments to Iran. They are literally trying to ignite World War 3 to protect Israel.

I'm obviously sad that there will be no more #StarfleetAcademy after season 2. I very much enjoyed the show. But I'm lucky enough (in contrast to how I felt after #StarTrekENT's cancellation) that I know that I will get up tomorrow and keep on doing research on Picard's crystal or Bajoran emblems... But other people I care about have lost their jobs. I don't need encouraging words from others, I'm okay, but I certainly don't need hateful messages like the ones I got during the last 10 weeks just for liking something.

This. For a franchise based on “to boldly go where no one has gone before” a lot of Trekkies seem to hate the future & new life & new civilizations, preferring only more of the past & what we’ve already seen. I’ll never understand it.
Mick Joest@G33kyMick

Upsetting news to hear #StarTrek Starfleet Academy will not go past Season 2. The fandom's inability to embrace any new storytelling outside of nostalgia might as well be the death knell for the fandom.

@WilliamShatner I saw a whole lot of people saying that never happened but I remember it. I remember the outrage of TNG, even worse hate about Generations and my God did folks complain that Enterprise somehow destroyed canon 🙄

And when the Next Gen came out; there was tons of hate because it “wasn’t Star Trek” and the cast probably was in fear from the fans. Again when the series with Bakula came out, it too was panned by the fans because it “wasn’t Star Trek.” Star Trek is different for everyone. 🤷🏼

During the first airing of my Star Trek series where a kiss was objectionable; many southern stations pulled the episode & condemned the show. Using today’s vernacular it would absolutely be called“woke DEI crap”because it went against “norms” of society for its time. Not a lot seems to have changed.🤷🏼😑

Prodigy. Starfleet Academy. Two bold attempts to expand the audience - same outcome. With Trek at a crossroads, the first series of the Skydance era matters more than ever. What should lead the next frontier? Advocate • Energize • Engage🖖
