Star Trek: Strange New Worlds is in full swing streaming week to week on the 2025 TV schedule, and for the first time in months, it feels like the franchise is back in a place where I was used to seeing it. Perhaps that's why I had my guard down at San Diego Comic-Con, ready to learn about what new things were on the way, and hopefully get a glimpse at what the future holds.
We, of course, did learn some things about what's going to be available for the Star Trek franchise with our Paramount+ subscription in the future, but it wasn't until recently that it hit me there was another takeaway I completely ignored at the time. This year feels different from previous years, and it's because we don't have a ton to look forward to on the Trek front. For reasons readers might guess, I have some concerns about that.
