Wish they would continue with lower decks :(

I really don't think it's up to them.

This makes me think about the TNG episode where they originally tried to backdoor pilot a Starfleet Academy series — it was the one where Wesley and his cohorts break the rules flying shuttles or something and someone gets killed (and they lie about it). I have to wonder how that series would have turned out if it had been picked up.

That was a backdoor pilot?! I never knew that.

I don't think it was.

Me, neither! I might be the only one who would have freaking loved a Wesley led series, though. Lol

Didn't it ultimately achieve its aim with the creation of Lower Decks?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Nah, that's more related to the episode named 'Lower Decks' I think.
