" Star Trek "'s guiding principle since " Discovery " brought the franchise back to TV in 2017 has been variety.

"Star Wars" is calling out for its own " Lower Decks"-style comedy", while the upcoming " 'Goonies' in space " " Skeleton Crew " could be the kid-oriented launchpad that Prodigy has been for " Trek ".

The "Star Trek " universe is now too vast and unwieldy to demand that even casual viewers become completists.

The MCU and " Star Wars" lived charmed lives when they were built around a relatively small number of movies.

Nobody should have to watch everything, so surely it's better for everyone if we accept that some people will set their targeting computers on "The Mandalorian" but avoid "Andor".
