We all know Rob isn't big on nu-Trek. And in today's ROADTRIPPIN' podcast, RMB expresses his concerns and frustrations with the latest episode of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds's latest episode.
But here's the thing about Rob's complaints - and, specifically, his concerns about the quality of writing for the latest generation of live-action, Star Trek shows currently streaming on Paramount+ ...
He's not wrong.
In fact, many of his complaints about the writing and writers as well as the stewardship of the Star Trek brand by the various showrunners involved have been confirmed by various people who have worked on the same productions. And it was during these conversations that Rob learned an important thing he shares with the ROADTRIPPIN' audience.
Things are going to change when Jean-Luc Picard gets back in the command chair in season three of STAR TREK: PICARD.
You've gotta hear it to believe it ...
Oh, by the way, I apologize in advance for the sound of carpenters working on my roof while recording the first ten minutes of my interview with Rob. I explain this in a bit more detail during the intro to the podcast, but if you want to skip it, the hammering interludes end for good about 10-12 minutes into the interview.
As always, I'll be writing more about all this on the ROADTRIPPIN' blog later today (and will probably post it this evening). You can check it out on our website: https://postgeeksingularity.com/roadtrippin-with-rmb/
