A key figure behind Star Trek's classic era has likened the shortened seasons of modern TV to the equivalent of a Tinder relationship, and said he hoped the sci-fi franchise would return to 22-episode seasons.
Agreed. And Pike, Spock, Uhara, and pretty much everyone on SNW are great characters. But look at every single main and recurring character on DS9. Watch the first episode, and the last. Even Rom is a drastically different person by the end. Quark, Garak, BASHIR. That kind of change just cannot happen with 10 episodes per, especially not with a ~20 person ensemble.
I had forgotten about Early. Such an odd choice to name him after a Confederate general. Apparently said general was an ancestor of Nathan Fillion, which I suppose is the reason for it. Richard Brooks really nailed that part, though.
Nonsense. Firefly created a fantastic villain, Jubal Early, in the space of just one episode. Good writers don’t need 20 episodes to do that.
