Yeah, good call - I think it should be self-evident that links to the online hate machine are not allowed here. We all know the usual suspects, and they're generally not hard to spot.

It's not too difficult. Each player gets six cards, except for the player on the dealer's right, who gets seven.

These are just the ones that I've seen - if you happen across any others, feel free to share them.

At last, I can inform the world of my devotion to the Kosst Amojan!

Well, I should add that I've mellowed on both series over time - I think Voyager is fine once you accept it for what it is, rather than for what it's not, and Enterprise...well, there's some good stuff in there, but it will never be near the top of my rewatch list.

A decent number of people vocally hated DS9, Voyager and Enterprise, when they first started airing

It me

(well okay, I never hated DS9, and my dislike for Voyager grew over time, but it basically me)

So, putting aside your statements of quality (some of which I agree with and some of which do not, but it's all subjective so whatever), I personally wouldn't hold "audience size" or whether a series was cancelled against him, unless you think the shows weren't any good. Seems like IDIC to me.

He's not my favourite writer by any means, but I'm in almost total agreement with his overall approach to handling the property.

He wants each series to be unique, hires the showrunners, and seems to let them do their own thing. I think it's a good approach, even though a couple of the projects fell short of their potential (y'know, in my opinion).

And he seems to work well with the suits, which is probably a good thing overall?

There’s a newer TrekMovie piece

Oh, thanks for this - I think I'll share the original!

Edit: Never mind, it's paywalled. I guess I'll share the trekmovie version 🙄

"Hint" was probably a poor choice of words, when I really meant that a renewal hasn't been announced.
