#can you imagine what it would’ve meant to get 7-10 seasons of ofmd?

I love watching 90s Star Trek. Of course I love the shows, but one of the things I love most is that there are seven seasons! I love that there are 25 episodes each season. I love that there is time for shenanigans and that the stakes don’t have to be sky high every episode. It’s really fun to watch characters goof around! Some of my favorite episodes of old shows like this are “filler” episodes.

I wish TV was still this way. It makes so sad that so many shows only have 8 episodes per season. I hate it that it’s rare for a show to make it past two seasons, even with a dedicated fan base. I’m really sad about Our Flag Means Death (and Shadow and Bone, and Star Trek: Prodigy—please watch it on Netflix so they will make more—, and Agent Carter even after all these years, the list goes on.) but I’m even more sad about how this represents a death for TV in so many ways. I’m sad that my favorite shows won’t last for years. I’m sad.
