Comment on Star Trek: Legacy Series Fans Want Most Is “Never Gonna Happen,” Says TNG’s Marina Sirtis
ValueSubtracted@startrek.website 4 hours agoI assume you’re referring to Kurtzman, but it seems to be like that’s exactly what he’s doing? Of the six series we’ve had under his watch, he’s been the showrunner of two of them. The rest of them seemed to be fairly free to execute their creative vision, for good or ill.

Not him specifically but that management pattern broadly over the entertainment industry. There’s The Showrunner and they’re supposed to control multiple films and series. I bet it’s exhausting and that’s why later stuff just isn’t as good.
By giving more people more freedom we’ll get more stories from more perspectives with different takes, instead of a corporate monoculture.
This is a pattern that happens every time control is decentralized, across social groups, so I’m pretty sure it’ll work.
