Star Trek: Starfleet Academy showrunner Noga Landau revealed that her plan to please old Star Trek fans while bringing in a new younger audience is to simply include a bunch of Easter eggs.
The logic here is akin to turning a burger restaurant into a subpar sushi joint, and expect the old clientele to keep coming because there’s some pictures of burgers on the wall.
There’s a lot of people who’ve loved Trek their whole lives. And then there’s people who really have come to Trek only recently.
If they loved Star Trek, they wouldn’t be using it to push LGBT+ indoctrination. Star Trek has always been a message, but it was subtle. It wasn’t thrown in your face, and it didn’t use hybrids to push the story. (A fat female Jemhadar? Really? A Klingon Warrior wearing a damned Skirt?)
She then finally got to a specific example of what they are doing in the writers room, “But I think, in the show itself, there’s so many Easter eggs to Trek.
Easter Eggs don’t make a show memorable, excellent writing does. If you have to put eggs in to draw viewers, you are a bad writer.
“If we don’t make shows for a new generation, and then the new generation after that, Trek is going to die, right? Our goal is to keep it alive.”
You can make a show for a new generation that doesn’t require you to butcher the classics. For some reason, Strange New Worlds did okay. It was almost classic Trek.
But we are doing so much to honor canon and to honor old Trek in the way we are approaching it now,” he concluded.
But, they aren’t honoring Canon. There are no female Jemhadar, plus Jemhadar would never serve in StarFleet. The writing does everything but honor Canon.
Viewers should tune out of his new Star Trek shows and return to watching the older shows that even in the worst episodes are still searching for truth while in Kurtzman’s shows they’ve abandoned the search for truth and have been turned into political lectures and in many cases attempt to stymie the search for truth.
I’d second that.
Instead viewers can find the words and deed of good men in the older Star Trek episodes such as The Next Generation’s “The Inner Light”
There are older episodes that were smoother in how they presented alternative lifestyles, such as when Dax came across one (his) old lovers. The Trill worked out Gender switching much better than modern shows do.
Even "Far Beyond the Stars" was a better episode, as was “Past Tense.”
The problem with modern Series is they overtly push shit and keep cramming it down your throat, and Star Trek has become the vessel for it.

These people are truly retarded.

"Member-berries" aren't enough to carry a show, especially when it's as badly written as this one...
She ought to focus on her "yeastier eggs," they won't be viable forever.
