Star Trek has inspired generations of fans with its optimistic vision of the future, but where does the franchise stand today? In this episode of Eat Sleep Nerd, we tackle one of the biggest questions in modern sci-fi:

Is Star Trek broken?

From classic series like The Original Series, The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, and Voyager to newer entries like Discovery, Picard, Strange New Worlds, and more, we explore what's working, what isn't, and whether the franchise has lost its way.

More importantly, we each pitch our own ideas for how to fix Star Trek. Should the franchise return to its roots? Take more risks? Slow down? Focus on new crews and new stories? We debate it all.

🖖 In this episode:

Is Star Trek still living up to Gene Roddenberry's vision?
What's gone wrong with the modern franchise?
The biggest strengths and weaknesses of today's Star Trek
Our ideas for fixing the franchise
What we hope to see in the future of Star Trek
