2 Years Later, Star Trek Is Still Ignoring the Most Obvious Choice for Its Next TV Show

As a huge Star Trek fan, I wasn’t at all surprised when people started buzzing about a continuation of Picard. Terry Matalas, the showrunner, began hinting at Legacy – a series that would focus on a new generation of Starfleet officers, like Jack Crusher and the LaForge daughters, in the aftermath of the Dominion War and the Borg threat. The idea really resonated with fans, and we immediately started campaigning to make it happen. An online petition quickly gained over 65,000 signatures, and then the amazing “Letters 4 Legacy” campaign took off. We all wanted to show Paramount just how much we wanted this series, so we flooded them with physical letters – a good old-fashioned fan push to get their attention!
