2 FRiCKiN' CENTS: THE RETURN OF PiCARD?
hroughout
this decade, science fiction fandom has become a toxic place with
fanboys demanding the universe they grew up admiring on the small
screen or the big screen. On the other end is normal folk like myself,
who are happy to have a new STAR WARS flick or a brand new STAR TREK TV
series with a chick in the lead. Am I crazy about having to pay CBS ALL
ACCESS to watch it? Of course not, but I do it anyway. I love the
franchise in a time when the term has become another f-word. "Why can't
STAR TREK just go the fuck away?" They whine. I say let 'em whine. With
DISNEY pulling back on their STAR WARS output because of fanboy
indifference (and possibly audience fatigue), I was delighted to hear
of PARAMOUNT's plans to go big with with some STAR TREK plans in
development. One of them involves a series sequel to STAR TREK THE NEXT
GENERATION. There is talk of PATRICK STEWART being close to signing a
deal to come back as JEAN LUC PICARD, but STAR TREK has had it's share
of development hell in the past. Today's show is a quick rant on the
matter along with new music from the band BROKEN TESTIMONY.
PATRICK STEWART'S FINEST
PERFORMANCE AS CAPTAIN PICARD!!!
