Unfortunately Paramount shows no signs of abandoning the franchise, despite their entries overwhelmingly being shit.
I don't think there is a real audience for this stuff though. The point of Paramount making these shows is to create content for the streaming service, not to build a generational fanbase. The actual fans that care are the ones that care about Trek. And it's a very smart and savvy audience, these people could make a lot of positive moves if they would actually organize and coordinate to undermine the shitslop coming from Hollywood.
