Okay, here's a related question: When do you think the next new Trek show will be created and released?

Not soon. They'll stick to movies for the time being, I'd wager.

That wasn't the question. It was hypothetical, designed to elicit controversy. WHEN they make a new show, whether it's next year or next century, that's the question.

I don't really see how my answer doesn't qualify as an "answer", per say. You asked when and my answer was, it'll be a while.
To further elaborate, it really depends on how successful this string of movies is. If the first movie bombs and Paramount isn't inclined to make more then it'll probably be a long time. A longer gap than the one since Enterprise. Finally somebody will gather the courage to commission/write a premise, and a TV series might be the result. If the first movie is successful, they'll make a second one and I don't see them throwing a new TV series into the mix for a while. That sort of thing muddies the water, in ijdgaf-hypothetical-movie-producer-speak/think. Maybe after a bit they'd branch out and make a new series. Or the movie series would run its course and, after another hiatus, a new series might come out of the woodwork. The question just has so many variables involved. And I don't get how "not soon" is... wrong? Would "the day after tomorrow" be a better answer? I don't see how. While it gains something in precision, it loses quite a bit in terms of plausability and all around well-informedness.

Is this really your answer, or are you trying to be difficult? Is a simple answer expressed in years, totally nonbinding and based on personal opinion too much to ask?

No, you're right. That was my fake answer.

The way you can tell is, he flicks his teeth.
I can't give any answer to the question that doesn't involve Aaron Sorkin, especially not as I'm currently working my way through my precious precious TWW DVDs, though right now I'm deep in the Wells-o-vision crapshoot that is season five. I'll agree with IJD that a lot rides on the film, and that barring someone pushy and egotistical enough to press Paramount into it in the near future (say, a clone of JMS that has been suitably brainwashed) it will be... oh, five years? Six?
