Comment on Legendary Star Trek Designer Inspired To Sketch President Archer’s Starship For ‘United’ Pitch

Fuck yes, sign me up! ENT fans want to get fed!

The show ended right as Archer entered his prime, just after we saw him broken and beaten by a real year of hell. I want to see that prime era Archer (of which we were robbed) in flashbacks as the current one is once again broken and beaten by another year of hell.

I really hope they get this off the ground 🙏

They probably won’t, especially considering that the first version of the pitch has already been rejected.

But…the reason for that rejection has been addressed, and this seems like this show would have a unique identity, which has been a priority.

And frankly, this seems like a more interesting concept to me than any of the other not-quite-pitches that have come from creators over the last few years.

  I’m finding Sussman is doing a better job of tempting fans:
  
  Once again, as Sussman noted in his recent TrekMovie podcast interview, “this is not a real television show,” which he also made clear to Andy Probert. Even so, the idea remains intriguing enough for the veteran designer to keep sketching — and for Sussman to remain hopeful that the new Skydance team at Paramount will want to revisit Star Trek: United. “I think Scott said it best at the [Las Vegas] convention, right?” he noted. “Who knows what will happen?”
