>As an executive trying to revitalize a property where fans are complaining about lack of alignment, do you understand why you might just erase the 20% rather than create 80% more of an otherwise-failed project?
If you're an executive, you understand that the purpose of these properties is to make money. Discovery makes money. It has fans. It sells merchandise. You don't erase money because of the rancor of some pedantic nerds, most people do not care.
- throwpoaster 2y agoBut it got canceled.
- krapp 2y agoCancellation is not the same as "erasure from canon." Lot of popular shows get cancelled all the time - Lower Decks got cancelled as well. Despite the narrative, Discovery was popular. It was a success.
- throwpoaster 2y agoBut Discovery got both cancelled and deleted.
- krapp 2y agoIt was not "deleted" in any sense I'm aware of. Discovery is still canon. The premise of this thread is a conspiracy theory which is not factual. Star Trek Discovery is still a part of the Star Trek franchise. You can still purchase official Discovery memorabilia. You can still stream it. It has an official Blu-ray release.
- croes 2y agoYou can still watch it on Paramount+
