Star Trek Officially Ends an 11-Year Streak & Leaves the Franchise’s Future Uncertain

When Discovery premiered on November 2, 2015, it kicked off a period where a new Star Trek show was always either approved or being made. That streak has ended. According to Trek Movie, both Season 6 of Strange New Worlds and Season 2 of Starfleet Academy are currently in post-production, and with no news about a third season of Starfleet Academy, the future of the franchise is now unclear. Interestingly, this isn’t necessarily a problem with Star Trek itself, but rather reflects broader changes in the entertainment industry.
