Star Trek franchise chief Alex Kurtzman said the following in a statement that accompanied the announcements:

“Four years ago, we made a promise to grow ‘Star Trek’ into something it had never been before, and thanks to the incredibly hard work done by our many talented showrunners, writers, and directors, along with the extraordinary support of CBS Studios and Paramount+, we’re keeping our word,” said Alex Kurtzman, architect and executive producer, “Star Trek” franchise. “Now our current shows are set up for the future as we work to build ‘Trek’s’ next phase of programming for years to come.”

    I enjoy all these shows, but the one I’m actually excited about is Strange New Worlds.

    And that is as it should be. With the explosion of Trek content I can see the strategy is to offer up a huge variety of shows in order to avoid the over-saturation of a single type or show that led to the tepid reception of Enterprise. So it’s not a bug that a lot of viewers are not interested in one or more of these shows — it’s a feature.
