Comment on Alex Kurtzman Gives Live-Action Comedy Update, Says Star Trek Can “Broaden”

Tawny Newsome is awesome, so I’m sure this will be good, but there seems to be a fundamental tension between Kurtzman saying Trek can broaden, while Paramount seems to be trying to contract it.

I’ve heard Tawny Newsome talk about this show on a podcast, and in this particular case, it’s the opposite - Paramount+ wanted a live-action comedy, Kurtzman wasn’t sure it would work, and Newsome had to talk him into it.
That said, the industry as a whole has been in a state of contraction, and the big Paramount merger is imminent, so who the hell knows what will happen?
