I'm the same age as the show, I've been watching since the beginning. Saw The Motion Picture in the theater.
I'm having a hard time with SNW. I didn't even try to watch Academy. I thought maybe it left me behind, that I'm too old to get it. But, if his kids aren't watching, then who is?
That's a good question. There have been two attempts at targeting younger viewers in recent years, and neither seems to have made enough of an impact to stick around.
And I don't think it's a question of quality - Prodigy and Academy were both quite enjoyable.

Well, didn't Paramount just cancel all the trek shows because Fascist?

Prodigy and Academy are the only two I just don't enjoy. I'm 46 and grew up on all Star Trek.

Military fetishists who hated Star Trek before JJ Abrams.
