Thats what I've suspected since the announcement that season 5 would be the last.
I'm looking forward to that. It will be interesting to see how they handle the timeline with the changes. |

I'm late watching season 3 of SNW.
We are up to episode 4.
So far I think its the weakest of the seasons.
A little too fluffy, a little too predictable, a little forced at times.

Damn!
I missed the obvious September 13th post yesterday.
Sept 5th was the 50th anniversary of the shows broadcast. |

I think (but I could be wrong) that POW was in touch with his sister about his final arrangements.
Maybe he can chime in at some time. |

Ahhh Quarks.
I miss that place and the whole Star Trek Experience.
My favorite was the Warp core breach.
