I think it seems hard to believe that the show really will end here. It just has the energy of a show with too much power behind it, both among fans and the people who made the show. And I think Newsome appears to agree with that take:

As far as the people creating it, we all would love to do that. I don’t know who writes the check for that, so I don’t know if they think it’s possible. But Mike has stories upon stories in him for these characters. He could do 10 more seasons. He is not done. None of us are done. Me, Jack, Eugene and Noël and not to mention the rest of our bridge crew and our recurring characters. Everybody’s like, “Yep, sign me up. We’ll be the next ‘Futurama.’ We’ll come back in 10 years, whatever you want.” So we’re all game.

It should go without saying, but spoiler alert for the season finale!

[-] ValueSubtracted@startrek.website 6 points 2 days ago

Hmm yes I did expect it would go without saying, but the extra reminder can't hurt.

[-] newthrowaway20@lemmy.world 17 points 2 days ago

I sure hope not. This show has been an absolute treasure!

If that's true then it's tragic they killed Tendi

[-] Blue_Morpho@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I couldn't believe it either! And so weird to do it at the very end of the episode.

[-] lordnikon@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago

Yeah they had to call back to Trip's death since we have such great memories of when that happened.
