I'm the same age as the show, I've been watching since the beginning. Saw The Motion Picture in the theater.

I'm having a hard time with SNW. I didn't even try to watch Academy. I thought maybe it left me behind, that I'm too old to get it. But, if his kids aren't watching, then who is?

Well, didn't Paramount just cancel all the trek shows because Fascist?

That's a good question. There have been two attempts at targeting younger viewers in recent years, and neither seems to have made enough of an impact to stick around.

And I don't think it's a question of quality - Prodigy and Academy were both quite enjoyable.

I love when people go by their feelings, and are both completely wrong.

The show is about to have their final season. That's what the article is about.

Prodigy and Academy are the only two I just don't enjoy. I'm 46 and grew up on all Star Trek.
