Quoted from Captain_Kirk:Article doesn't really say much. Is it going to take place in the Prime time-line, or the alternative time-line?
What year?
Details....details...
So looks like it will run concurrently with TOS but not be related to the current film's. Hope they do NOT mess this up, I fear it will be Star Trek's last chance for TV if it fails.
Make it so!
Quoted from DaveH:Streaming Only = FAIL
No one watches TV or Cable anymore. The only money is on demand and streaming. Sling, Netflix, Hulu, Amazon are the real money makers.
Terrestrial television = dead.
Quoted from Aurich:Hey, you never know. Best of luck to the faithful who pony up the $5.99 to watch some episodes. I'll pass. I would maybe DVR it or watch on Netflix or Amazon, something I already pay for (I also pay for HBO, Starz, and Showtime). But not interested in throwing another six bucks at another service. Don't care about their content, not going to pay for it.
The future might be streaming, but it's not going to be nickel and diming us over every different content provider trying to roll their own service. Pass.
For a new Star Trek Series, $5.99 a month is nothing. Even if it is the only thing you will watch on the service.... I even gladly pay $5.99 "per episode". Hell, if my contribution would help keep Star Trek alive assuming it doesn't suck I gladly pay $10 per episode.
Quoted from sd_tom:Crowd funded , pilot already out:

I supported this as well. However, the production quality is very low. I enjoyed the first episode but I do not find this level of quality acceptable for a real series in terms of today's standards. Rewind to the 90's then it would probably do well. As much as I loved seeing ST actors acting it would not stand up to the mass on a network and would be canceled instantly. The new show needs to entertain and impress non-Trekkies as much as the diehard fans that will eat up whatever they can find. However, I did enjoy it for what it is. But even as a diehard fan, it did not feel like Star Trek.
This is Episode 1:
