80 million dollars.

$80,000,000.00

I don’t know this for a fact, but I’m willing to bet that $80 million would’ve paid for another season of Lower Decks. And I’m also pretty sure, even if I don’t know it for a fact, that 10 episodes of LDS would get a lot more eyeballs than two hours of S31.
 
It was good, but somewhat underwhelming. A couple good speeches at the end helped, and I'll miss Captain Freeman big-time, though the finale definitely felt rushed. I never cared for Ransom, either - but everyone has that one character they can't stand. Some even hate Wesley from TNG.

Great visuals on top of everything, but multiverses aren't my thing and that's at the epicenter of all this - a concept how many other franchises are also using.

But I do wonder what a 6th season might have been. The great episodes of season 5 are still on par with the other greats that the show cultivated, and the other new characters added to the show in season 4 onward certainly helped. And yet 5 felt the most uneven of the bunch. Or at least the most rushed at times. impossible to say, really. And now, I'm off to get a tall refreshing glass of... Metamucil.
