It's a bummer, but then Pike's story has an end we've been approaching. Albeit, it was something like 10 years total before his destined disaster, so there could have been a few more stories to tell. At least they have some time to try and wrap things up.

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.

I'd rather them end cleanly with a clear story ending, than to continually stretch it out passed its welcome.
I'm just bummed that the Trek I love most is coming to an end. I have absolutely loved everything about it, even the musical episode (unpopular opinion, I know, but I was a theater kid). I would have adored 7 seasons and 3 movies, but I get that we knew the ending before it started.
Dude, we've been bff for 2 years now I think
newly-confirmed fifth season will run for six episodes
remember when seasons were a season long
Pepperidge farms remembers.
Making things is expensive, you know? Small content creators like Disney and Paramount always struggle so much in that brave new world of the internet... 😢
Unless the episodes are 90 mins long
Nah, they are going to be 35 minutes hour long episodes!
To be replaced with what? SNW was (is, for the time being) a great show and the torchbearer of the franchise IMO. For a time it looked like Paramount was finally righting the ship with SNW and LD, but now they’re both gone and they’re back to putting out dross like Section 31?
Paramount isn't doing so good atm, so I'd prepare for another ST drought unfortunately
Something that follows the terran empire's version of section 31.
Or an unironic version of Pog and Dar: Cop Landlords.
Or "Tribbles! You like tribbles!"
Ai generated shorts probably
By ST Academy of course, are you not hyped by a whole new generation???
Di you expect it to run forever? Sometimes stories are just done and told, dragging them.out would just hurt them.
That seems a good take if the show runners were making the call, but it sounds like it's not their call.
Also maybe if the viewership declined, but now is an odd time since they haven't had new releases to gauge viewership.
Sounds like either they have some other shiny things to direct money to or are suffering from lack of subscribers, perhaps in part due to not having a whole lot of new popular content.
5 seasons seems like a good run these days, but what's with the 5th being short? These seasons are short enough as it is.
Peak TV is long over.
It was predicted in TNG that TV will be gone in the 2040s
Sure it will be gone but not because there's something better but just because crap they pump out is tedious bolocks.
If it's not thr best thing ever on epesode 1 it's doomed
So 46 episodes in total. Could have at least made it 47. 🙄
I was looking for a point to cancel Paramount+. I guess I found it.
Aww it was so good
Bummed that it’s only six episodes but at least they can wrap up storylines, really hope we get a few more seasons of Prodigy as well.
Great show, glad it well end before it turns to shit
STD, and picard wasnt better off as far as quality goes. snw is just a step above them, no match for pre-jj abrams.
