Watch ‘Discovery’ and ‘Strange New Worlds’ EP Alex Kurtzman Explain Why ‘Star Trek Will Go on Forever’
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.
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.
Sure, the fanservice can be a lot.
My main thing is just that it's clear how much McMahan loves the source material and it's great how he can operate within the parameters of the universe with reverence despite being jocular.
