I'd actually much rather see a good show end at a good spot rather than be dragged on and on until it's bled dry. 5 seasons isn't a half bad run.
TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Absolutely criminal, unless we get a spinoff with them as senior officers where they do more important missions. I'm not holding out hope though
So Star Trek: The Bridge, not to be confused with the game Star Trek: Bridge Crew.
Star Trek: Upper Decks, or STUD.
Well. There goes the only reason I had paramount
Guess I'll go and... archive that show, before they pull it altogether
I just buy a month once a year and binge the nacelles off, but I refuse to actually subscribe.
Six seasons and a movie!
Sucks, but better than overstay your welcome (Dexter) or get cancelled with a big cliffhanger (My name is Earl)
overstay your welcome (Dexter)
I blame the late Manny Coto for that. I blame him for a lot of bad TV, actually. lol (ENT was the exception, somehow)
or get cancelled with a big cliffhanger (My name is Earl)
Wasn't that due to the Writer's Strike? Regardless, showrunners should never end a season on a cliffhanger when the studios have shown they'll pull the plug for any reason whatsoever.

I guess if contracts are signed, it's okay, but even then it's a risk (e.g. strikes). For the most part I agree, though. You need to end on a note that, at the bare minimum, could serve as a slightly unsatisfying pausing point.
Meanwhile, they're pushing ahead with a Kelvinverse Star Trek origin story movie, the film exactly zero people have been clamoring for.
Zero people except for the executives, because they’re highly profitable
Sucks to see Paramount mismanage the brand over and over again.
But, hey, I still got the 90's shows on disc, so they can't take that from me.
I can't wait for Disney to buy the franchise and we can finally have the Star Trek/Star Wars crossover that we all deserved.
Don't you put that evil on me, Ricky Bobby!
Take my love, take my land
Take me where I cannot stand
I don't care, I'm still free
You can't take Star Trek from me
...
Lost my love, lost my land
Lost the last place I could stand
There's no place I can be
Since I've found the NCC
And you can't take Star Trek from me
My favorite episode is Janewaystown with that catchy song "The hero of Calindra"
This is why they will not release the 90s shows on 4k BluRay. They don't want anyone to actually own copies.
