We're not dead yet Jim

Just caught this off this off the wire.

 

Streaming… the final frontier. Ever since Alex Kurtzman and Bob Orci, key players on the Star Trek feature franchise, moved to CBS TV Studios, there had been talk about them resurrecting the studio’s marquee title. Now the long-rumored new Star Trek TV series has become a reality as the first original series on CBS’ digital platform CBS All Access. Shepherded by Kurtzman, who will serve as executive producer, the series will premiere in January 2017 with a preview broadcast on CBS followed by an exclusive run in the U.S. on CBS All Access.

 

 

Kurtzman and Orci have gone their separate ways in features. On the TV side, their company, CBS TV Studios-based Kurtzman/Orci Paper Products, is still intact though Kurtzman is expected to work solo on the Star Trek series as one of the projects under a separate deal with the studio.

 

CBS Corp. had been high on rebooting Star Trek with a new series installment, which had been a goal for the company.

 

“There is no better time to give ‘Star Trek’ fans a new series than on the heels of the original show’s 50th anniversary celebration,” said David Stapf, President, CBS Television Studios.“Everyone here has great respect for this storied franchise, and we’re excited to launch its next television chapter in the creative mind and skilled hands of Alex Kurtzman, someone who knows this world and its audience intimately.”

I heard that Manu Intiraymi will reprise his role as Icheb in the new Star Trek series as a main character this time.

Holy Tribbles, it's an old friend from SFOL! Greetings once again Andrew....maybe you remember me from the USS Ranger....I'm FairBol.  Now fifteen years (or so) older and wiser, LOL.  Living in CT right now, had moved to Florida for school around 2003....but I'm back! Regards to any of the STSF crew who ever served on the Ranger, Regayov, or any SFOL ship.  :)

Welcome back, former FairBol.  There are a lot of us from SFOL days around here, since STSF is what happened to SFOL (or is that "happening with"?)  As far as your other posting about getting sims going, you can imagine how chat-based Star Trek sims were of much more interest 15 years ago (among us Trek nerds), but that the popularity has declined a bit.  Please take a look at the Schedule page and come visit any of the regular sims that happen each week.  If you like something you see, ask the GMs there about in-sim training and come back to us as a regular!
