    When Jonathan talks about the magic of Kirk, Spock and Bones had and how they were looking for that, my immediate reaction was how TNG had that, but it was a larger group. You can't pick just 3 of the TNG cast. It's the whole group, together, that creates the magic.

      J.J. Abrams ends all his Star Trek movies the same. With Kirk or Spock punching the villain in the face. The Inner Light shows that it doesn't have to be that way. There's no villain or punching match in The Inner Light (or City on the Edge of Forever). Great episodes that today's filmmakers should learn from.

    Great interview, Terry if you are sincere about Trek as it seems here, you have my vote on taking the Trek universe to its next step. It seems that you realise the importance of its philosophy over flair.

    For anyone who is interested, Insurrection and Star Trek V: The Final Frontier also lost money, if you account for advertising and the theaters cut. If you don't count those issues then all the movies made money, although Nemesis only barely so.

      @@markadolph8715 to be fair, the studio didn't exactly set up Star Trek 5 for success. Shatner was plagued with constant studio interference and meddling and also dealt with crippling budget cuts (which forced him to make dramatic changes to the script) all while filming. What's funny is when Takei heard Shatner was going to direct 5 he refused to be in it. Shatner had to convince him. Ironically, Takei said that Star Trek 5 was actually enjoyable to make largely thanks to Shatner who made the most of a bad situation, always keeping things light and fun on set even though it was clear the studio was hanging him out to dry.

    Until Picard Season 3, Kurtzman Trek felt like something made by people who didn't get or like what Star Trek was. This feels like a return to form, and I'm loving it, but the only path forward for Trek is to maintain this level of care and quality. It will take repeated solid seasons to bring some of the lifelong fans who split back, because so far this wonderful season is a data point, not a pattern
