Comment on [Discussion] Do you have franchise fatigue? Or is there still a franchise that you enjoy seeing?
Prouvaire@kbin.social 8 months agoI think the fact that Anson Mount nailed it as Pike helped. (He followed in the footsteps of Jeffrey Hunter and Bruce Greenwood - all three Pikes have been really good.) Personally, I suspect that the more SNW edges towards being TOS the less I'll enjoy - or, more accurately, the less I'll respect - it.

Absolutely.
Mount nailing Pike though is part of my problem. SNW’s promise was that it could be a very independent fork of TOS, an alternate take on what the show could have been that also happened to be consistent with the canon due to the 10 year time jump between the two pilots and the few constraints canon put on the period.
