Solid trailer. I'll give it a watch.

Strange New Worlds is apparently doing a muppet episode in season 4. The cast are going to be replaced with puppets.
Yes, this is were modern Star Trek is at now.
While Star Trek has always had lighter moments, they were once or twice in a 25-episode season. Not every other episode.

Partly a consequence of 10 episode seasons I guess.

While I sympathize with folks looking to keep a more serious tone to the episodes, as a fan of the Muppet Show back in the day, I can't wait to see it.

We had Pigs in Space.

St:TNG was better first season. They've had several dog episodes in a row, with the last one off to a bad start but then "OK."
Muppets. Ug.

Guys, lighten up… after all, Star Fleet Battles gave us…
“…The Creature that ate Sheboygan III…”
How is that any worse the the Cookie Monster?

At the time we wrote that scenario, SPI had published a game titled THE CREATURE THAT ATE SHEBOYGAN. We were poking friends at that company. We did that a lot.
Phil Kosnett was, at the time, a game designer for SPI, who designed WAR IN THE ICE, a game fighting for Antarctic resources. Phil credited me by name in his designer notes for talking him into including a frozen alien race as a sci-fi alternative.
Jack Radey was a friend of mine, despite being an outright communist, who designed games for his own company. His first game was Korsun Pocket.

Star Trek: Starfleet Academy?
Looks more like Star Trek: Starfleet Academy 90210
Please, I don't want a dorm room drama and romance show.

I've enjoyed every Star Trek series so far, from the original up through Strange New Worlds. I fully expect I'll enjoy Starfleet Academy as well. The trick is to them for what they are, not for what you would write up yourself. Infinite diversity in infinite combinations, after all.
