Oh, okay let’s keep spending millions per episode so a few thousand people can enjoy the show. That’s absolutely how show business works.
Numbers are critical and a key indicator of mainstream success.
As I’ve stated multiple times already low viewer count combined with high review bombs indicates a disconnect between what’s being produced and what the audience wants.

…? We’re not the producers of the shows, how is that any of our concern? They’ve got plenty of bean counters at Paramount, if a show isn’t hitting their financial goals, they’ll either cancel or retool it. All we can do is watch the shows that get made and express and discuss our opinions about it, there’s no point in the fans engaging in bean-counting themselves.

Well I find it concerning because I really would love a new Star Trek that’s on the level of TNG, or Voyager, or DS9.
Ultimately does it effect me? Nope, but it’s disappointing when producers feel that such a departure is a good thing or even necessary to stay relevant with the times; when in reality those changes make the entire show irrelevant.
