The penultimate episode of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy’s first season was a big one for many reasons, including that it was directed by Captain William Riker himself, Jonathan Frakes. Ahead of next week’s finale, we were able to talk to Frakes about the big reunion between Caleb (Sandro Rosta) and his mom Anisha (Tatiana Maslany), how he directs such a storied franchise, how he deals with fan community hate, and more.
Academy is basically Harry Potter in Space.
That’s exactly what the showrunners were going for.
which is exactly why Star Trek needs new showrunners.
I think one of the problems a lot of franchises face is that there’s one, singular showrunner.
Why not open it up to multiple people, all able to tell different stories the way they want? Let a million Star Trek flowers bloom, I say.
As long as they keep the spirit of Star Trek, which barely any of the modern shows do.
Thx.
Lol yeah, this comment just confirms that you only watched half of it.
