Comment on "Star Trek is dying." How would you sell it to a younger audience?

Either reboot it or let it die. If I wanted to make the effort to dive into such an convoluted world, I’d get into LotR. I will never understand everybody’s fascination with decades old franchises with impenetrable lore. Nothing against Star Trek specifically, I’m just tired of seeing media and thinking “Oh, that looks interesting, I’d like to get into that” just to find out there’s a backlog of 47 years of world building I have to catch up on before I get to enjoy it. This is why I never got into Dr. Who, Star Trek, LotR, Warhammer or WoW.
