Season 3 is greenlit, to be released in 2026. Sounds like Dean Devlin has succeeded in convincing NBCUniversal that what’s come so far is really just the prequel.

Calling out to all those interested in watching/rewatching seasons 1 & 2.

Our @thearkchat is set up for chat, news and watch parties.

We’ve agreed on a Saturday watch party slot. Now that we know season 3 is a go, hopefully we can broaden the interest.

So, amidst everything else flooding the zone, I missed this report earlier in the week.

The Star Trek Section 31 movie broke the Nielsen top ten streaming movie chart for the week of January 20-26, 2025.

Despite the brigading, despite the dire predictions and fan complaints, it performed well enough in its first week - especially keeping in mind that Paramount+ has a smaller subscription base.

As my partner and I seem to be among the few willing to say we found it a lot of fun, even better on rewatch, I’m glad to see that it has other unvoiced supporters.

TrekMovie has the report.

This is news!

Akiva Goldsman to head up 3 reboots of mid-60s science fiction classic television shows.

I adored Time Tunnel and Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea.

Land of the Giants never quite caught my interest but it’s definitely got monsters.

Given the level of investment in Monarch: Legacy of Monsters and Lost in Space, we can expect these to be high end projects.

I know that "Babylon 5" didn't have the best writing but this seems harsh.

Glad you hung in with ‘The Ark’!

In my view season two is even better. I really wish they’d replaced that 1990s quality CGI title sequence, but we can still hope for it in a third season.

It’s interesting how streaming has made us so insistent that shows reach a certain peak in quality right out of the gate. It’s encouraging fast decisions on cancellations it seems and is getting in the way of experimentation and of new shows finding their audiences.

There’s a truism that after TOS, all new Star Trek shows need a couple of seasons to truly find their voice and quality. It’s said of other shows too. So when sci-fi television fans say they want older style shows, I feel we need to challenge them to hold their powder on criticism and them at least as many episodes as they gave the older shows to find their quality.

[I never realized how bad most of the first two seasons or The Next Generation are until I was curating a group of episodes to introduce our kids once they’d worked through TAS in primary school. (6 episodes out of 26 was my set for season one.)]

Anyhow, hope you’ll join our @thearkchat and rewatch parties yet to come, likely after the February sweeps cluster of new releases.

Glad to hear that the two of you are enjoying ‘The Ark’ nonetheless.

I’m of the view that those who are saying they’re looking for a return to aspirational 70/80s/90s sci-fi, and don’t care if there’s low production values, should consider this show an alternative model to what they’re critiquing on the streamers.

Its unrepentantly low production values and optimism won me and others over. And there turns out to be a large and vocal Gen Z following that got the renewal for season two. Don’t expect news on season three before April’s presentations to advertisers but it was still pulling relatively well in a target demographic.

Anyhow, I find ‘The Ark’ so much fun that I have set up a group chat bot to support sharing news, chat, watch/rewatch parties.

Hope you’ll join in! This seems like a show that will be most enjoyable in a watch party.
